NBA Power Rankings: Cleveland Cavaliers ruin Christmas

Previous: . Indiana Pacers. 15. team. 100. Paul George might think that the NBA sees his team as the “little brother” of the league, but they still have problems with inconsistency to work out before they hit the big stage. The Indiana Pacers have been swinging back and forth more than a pendulum over their first 32 games. They’ll look good for a stretch and make you believe that the chemistry is coming together and then look like they’ve never played with each other before. George’s play has been on the same type of up-and-down swing over the course of the season. During the Pacers current three-game losing streak, George has failed to score over 20 points in any of those contests. In order for Indiana to make the postseason they are going to need to get All-Star and possibly All-NBA level production from their superstar. They must improve and continue to find the right cohesion if they are going to get themselves into the playoffs. Indiana needs to be able to start stringing together wins and soon or they’ll be toughing it out down the stretch in hopes of making noise in the postseason once again.. 15-17
