By the standard the Pacers have set on jersey retirements, he clearly does not deserve it.
But by the standard that most other teams in the league use, I understand why he might feel he does deserve it. But it’s not going to happen.

If he wants to come back on a reasonable price then sure, if he’s on our team when we win a chip.

Hasn’t been shit since his leg snapped in half.

Lmao his jersey will never hang in the rafters here. I also love that he acknowledges that the fans would boo him but thinks they still could do it, like it’s based solely on stats and has nothing to do with sentiment.

The next jersey that needs to go up is for Rik Smits. End of discussion.

The fans that boo Paul George would be the same people who booed Andrew Luck and get us on the media making Indiana fans looks like trash again.

If Rik Smits and Jermaine O’Neal aren’t up there, Paul George ain’t getting up there.

No way!

He’s gonna have to come win a title in Indy before that happens.

If he comes here for the MLE and we win a title, it’s on the table. Otherwise, no dice.

Hang the Lance jersey!

Honor the people who honor the team and the city. With a little more success I think Granger and Hibbert could have been hung. With some more years, their loyalty was awesome. If they had a title, if injuries or mental struggles didn’t take them down…I have hopes for Halliburton. The guy wants to be here and is an awesome city figure

Why the fuck would we retire his jersey? What did he do that was notable while he was here?? 😂
TJblockboi
If he comes back but not right now 😭

PG is a phenomenal individual player. He’s even built w elite catch n shoot and defense so he should be a phenomenal team player but I think he needed a great coach early and not a “players” coach. He’s too off on his own imo. He’ll shoot you in the game, he’ll shoot you out of the game – PG in a nutshell.

Best player on the only conference finals team in franchise history isn’t nothing
