LeBron James sat out for the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night to rest against the Indiana Pacers, and the opposing small forward had a field day.
Paul George finished the game with 29 points, five rebounds, an assist and a steal on 10-17 from the field and 4-9 from downtown. In three games prior to today, all of which saw LeBron James play, George has shot 11-21, 3-15, and 7-16 for a combined 21-52 (40.3%). Today, he was defended by J.R. Smith, Iman Shumpert, and Richard Jefferson. All are great defenders, says George, but none as good as LeBron James.
