In – Indiana Pacers

It has been a very impressive run for the Indiana Pacers this season without superstar forward Paul George. They were at one point looking like a potential top-five draft pick team, but they have rebounded are currently sitting in the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference.

They are finally beginning to get healthy, and there is a chance that George could return from his broken leg this season.

If that does indeed happen, they are going to be a nightmare first-round matchup for whoever they end up facing. Frank Vogel has been one of the best coaches in the NBA all season long and always seems to get the most out of his players.

George Hill getting healthy was a huge part of the Pacers’ turnaround, and he works very well alongside David West and Roy Hibbert. Solomon Hill, C.J. Miles and Rodney Stuckey have also been huge additions this season.

They are going to be major keys for Indiana down the stretch of the season, and there is no question that the Pacers are one of the more dangerous teams now that they are getting healthy and hitting their groove.
