You also called Hibbert the best player on the team, who averaged a whopping 4.6 rebounds this past month, while shooting 42% from the field.
 
Last time I checked PG is still just 23 years old, inconsistency problems will still happen. He is still a super-star.
 
Hibbert is a good example of how mobility is just as important as wingspan to be a good rebounder. Dude is 7'2" 290 lbs and averages 6.8 rebounds.

I suppose that begets the question: Are the Pacers collapsing because of Hibberts play moreso than George's? Or vice-versa?

Obviously both are to blame.

George is a super-star though, despite his recent shooting struggles.

His shooting averages have gone down each year, pretty much. Since the beginning of the year his shooting has been terrible. Can't find stats for it though..

At the time he was playing like a super-star, which is what we were talking about at the time. None of us expected or predicted this regression. Just because the regression happened does not validate your argument.

Don't really consider Paul George an All-star by how he's been playing the last few months tbh.

He made the all-star team. He's an all-star. Is he struggling? yes. Do other all-stars struggle at times? yes.
Indiana really needs a third stud. Turner really hasn't been much of an impact player since the trade. Stephenson probably needs more scoring chances given his percentages. Looking at their stats, everyone has tailed off a bit the last month.

I actually thought he would come back down to earth.
Great all around player...... not a superstar though.

Imo there are only like maybe 5 superstars in the league or something though so its harder to get that superstar status if im the one judging
