Paul George on making Hall of Fame: 'If it happens it happens, if it doesn't, it doesn't'
“I don’t know. I think I’m good with or without,” George said. “Obviously, you want the work and the longevity part of it to withstand the test of time and be able to be a part of that Hall of Fame.” For George, he's doesn't have his heart set on making it one day. “If it happens it happens it happens, if it doesn’t it doesn’t,” George said. “I think I had a generation of kids that enjoyed the way I played the game. My prime years, how I played the game, how I impacted the game, and that’s enough for me man. I’m going to continue to share and give back to the next generation of kids.”

Orlando is back in front with a minute and change to play. Paul George fouling out again has put all of the responsibility on Tyrese Maxey. - 8:32 PM
Might go down as Paul George's best game as a Sixer. But, the fouling trend continues. Not only do the Sixers have less talent on the floor, but one less spacer/ball-handler to make life easier for Maxey with 2:49 to go and Philly up by 3. - 8:29 PM
Paul George hit a monster pull-up 3, then on the next possession gets caught in the air and commits his 6th foul. His night is over with 25 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists as the Sixers lead 94-93 with 2:49 left. - 8:28 PM
Right as I was about to say Paul George was in the midst of a great offensive second half, he fouls out of the game with 2:49 left.
Exits with 25-10-6 - 8:28 PM
Big time pull-up three from Paul George to put the Sixers back in front with three minutes remaining. Gave him 25-10-6 on the night... and then he fouled out. Another completely confounding trend for George. - 8:27 PM
Paul George picks up his sixth foul and his night is over.
That could prove to be highly significant. - 8:27 PM
