AROUND the NBA:

Consistent is the last word I´d use to describe PG.

For one he has only played over 60 games once in the last five years. He´s injured already and 34 years old. His play-off performances are very up and down, especially his scoring/shooting comes and goes.

I don't know, man. Yes, he has been injury-plagued, but I think that became less of a problem as he went along on this last deal (I suppose it might've been with getting the next deal in mind, we'll see), and when he's out there, I still really like his game, personally. He's still a good defender, three level scorer, facilitator, high basketball-IQ. There's a lot to like. 

Relative to Kawhi Leonard, who I felt at one point was on his way to becoming one of the 10-15 best ever, George's availability seems robust. Maybe it's the relativity of those two that's got me supporting George, Idk. I do think he'll play well for Philly this year, provided he's healthy.
