Paul George (Indiana Pacers)

Axing ‘The Truth’ Pierce is usually controversial, but George deserves a chance more than most. Although Pierce is still making opponents look clueless and still the man you trust with the final ball, the Boston Celtics are having an erratic season, and it would be an injustice to add a companion to Rondo and Garnett. Into just his third year, George has gone from ‘The Possible One’ to ‘The One’ for Indiana. The standout among a group of solid Pacers, he has made them forget injured franchise star Danny Granger with some insane numbers.
