I remember watching Pacers vs Heat games as a kid and man they were always going at it. PG showed so much promise and always played with so much drive to beat Lebron.

[Zack Rodriguez]

“SENSATIONAL MOVE, BY PAUL GEORGE!” “We are seeing a superstar, in the making here with Paul George!”So iconic

[Sohaib Mir]

@Allan Houston he was a budding superstar he pretty much became a superstar during the series

[GERALRD BETTAS]

P koill lo

[GERALRD BETTAS]

Allan Houston nn. Ok niook BO n

[Sandy Santamaria]

PG on the Pacers was an absolute monster. I miss those battles

[RaTeD_RMN]

@Dre Day It was 3 series 0-3 to Miami.

[Minus]

Lbj always had it easy in the east.

[Hanni Pham]

Richard Nixsons nah you're dreaming die hard pacers fan. Which is cool anyone can dream🔥

[Hanni Pham]

@Sandy Santamaria nah. I know PG is better in the pacers. but in that series. PG is not consistent.

[Sandy Santamaria]

@Hanni Pham This was 8 years ago when PG was consistent...

[MrSportsGuy13]

Imagine a Pacers vs Grizzlies finals that year. The score would've been like 75 to 70 every game.

[Life is Rosey]

memphis vs young OKC was one of the illest series ever, i think 2011

[Branson Mackey]

@Aldous G In 2014

[Jackson Murphy]

Fax two of the best defensive teams

[Jacob Tann]

when there's no finals games for 2 days so you revisit one of the best eras in nba youtube history #NBATogetherLive

[Toby Howells]

what a great game, great players and great plays

[Awkwardsossige]

I remember this one. These Heat-Pacers series were great, three years in a row!

[Life is Rosey]

even as a knick fan i loved this series. i thought Melo could have beaten both them in that era 11-2013. that was a fun era

[Larry Bird]

@Joe Connolly Still keeps me up at night. They called it a block, Cavs took the timeout and Lebron hit the game winner 3 in Thaddeus’s face😐 we woulda beat them in the 1st round, but it’s Lebron and the refs helped along the way. Lebron did his thing tho fr

[Beginostrich76]

WhiteMagic Spells they’re good bet definitely not on the level. And as soon as they get an an least decent coach they’re injured

[JBDONTMISS]

When the pacers where good

[Joe Connolly]

They were some great games but I swear I remember the chase down block on victor lol that was straight up goaltending pacers got screwed think they were a game away from advancing .long time ago someone correct me here haha yo

[Trexagon]

1:21:50 and 1:22:50 are the best moments of this game

[cryptic_conman]

I remember dad and i screaming at the tv and drinking beer the entire series! Good times! Go Pacers!!!

[Stoic Thoughts]

this was a fun series to watch overall....once George got traded from Indiana his game grew exponentially

[Xain]

@kedric clements his prime was with OKC. Top 3 in the DPOY race, top 3 in the MVP race. That was both his offensive and defensive peak. He was probably a t5 player in the league

[Luis-Angelo]

Yeah MVP candidate with OKC too

[Ryan Cuzzort]

No the fuck it hasn't

[kedric clements]

Lol bro that isn’t right . PG was a 3 time all star with the pacers one of the best defensive players in the whole nba , and PG was an elite scorer all ready , take a look at his playoff stats on the pacers ridiculous numbers , MVP numbers. Paul was all ready in his prime when we traded him , the Indiana pacers lost a top 10 nba player and a top 5 playoff performer .

[kedric clements]

As a pacers fan this was the best years of my young basketball life

[JIRIMI]

This was the point i became a PG fan and felt he could be the one to take down Lebron

[PG 13PACERNATION]

I will never forget PG13 with Pacers going at Bron man these were the good days

[Glenn Robinson.]

Lebron James feasted in the weak East. *In 2013, Paul George ( age 22 ) was not yet a supertstar, only averaged 17-ppg. on 42%.* Post-prime David West and the overrated Roy Hibbert. Still needed 7 games to beat the Pacers.

[Tony Wang]

@YourPage no cap, PG24 was so different

[YourPage]

PG24 > PG13 imo

[Rohan Mehra]

he was pg24 at that time

[Isaiah]

PG 13PACERNATION PG lowkey best player in the league now that he by kawhi he gon be too complete

[Raheem Williams]

The heat and pacers always gave us good matches to watch

[Mark]

Great game!! Winners deserved it for sure

[ThatHoosierGuy]

Mannnnn. Absolutely loved these games. I was pulling for my Pacers to make the finals.

[Sonnel James]

Stevenson had a lot of wild plays down the stretch. He’s a fun player to watch tho 😄

[Philip John]

We are seeing a superstar in the making with Paul George.

[Rafael Villafane]

@super91 nah bruh I bet you 10 mill he goes to the clippers with kawhi and choke the 2021 playoffs then both get injured for a while and lose to the pelicans in the 2022 play in tournaments

[LeGM]

CANCUN ON 3. 1. 2. 3

[LeGM]

@Chef Curry nah I think hell Join Kawhi on The Clippers and choke a 3-1 Lead

[ZDIII]

L

[Russian Spy]

Lol no way he gonna choke to Denver

[Kwesi Moreland]

I loved that defense chant

[Goat GOAT]

1:21:52 the legendary dunk

[Mad Mathurin GOAT]

I miss PG. He could be the best player in the league alongside LeBron and KD if he didn’t get injured.

[Skud]

Not saying pg isn’t great now because he is. But if he never got hurt and missed that time he would be even higher on peoples list

[L L]

@D Redd 💀

[Merk God]

@Hello Why 2016 and 2017

[Hello Why]

No even close the only year you can he was better than his pacer days was I think 2019 on okc when he was in mvp convo

[A Viewer A]

True. That broken leg set him back some

[D Redd]

Welcome to Gboard clipboard, any text you copy will be saved here.

[mrumsey93]

Love having Steve Kerr’s commentary!

[Connor McNerney]

Me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Scoopersnacks]

These pacers always competed, great couple years in the playoffs

[Aditya Mozumdar]

As a Miami fan, during these golden years it was always Indiana which scared me the most

[DonNoDraper]

People forget how dangerous that Pacers squad really was 🤦‍♂️

[hamza]

one of the very few players to give lebron actual competition

[ghappy C]

Replay Wizards vs Celtics (2014.12.08) - Wall with 26 pts 17 ast, an emotional and inspiring game

[Jon]

Makes me feel old. I was probably 14 when I first watched this

[Bob Bob]

@K T you a weirdo bro

[K T]

@Mitchell M I’ve always been your father

[Radentstwo]

@K T Bad day boy?

[Mitchell M]

@K T the man is like 22 now if you do the math. Were you never a kid or what?

[Lance Violan]

imagine the pacers with danny granger in that series😳

[Blu Hilz]

Dats his name, bingo....tnks

[Dave Ugpo]

Pacers also have a well constructive team. 1-5 and bench. Must say one the best series.

[The Observer]

The best of lebron james.. he didn't have to dominating the ball as a playmaker and more focus on his spectacular offense and defense

[Shiesty]

Dude was a beast honestly

[Shiesty]

This video honestly proves that pg is one of the best (Besides what he did in the playoffs lol)

[Shiesty]

Sometimes i forget how good paul george is

[SS]

man its hard to believe what happened to Roy Hibbert

[SS]

@Glenn Robinson. He can

[Glenn Robinson.]

@KYJev This is not the point, it was just that the competition was very weak. Roy Hibbert was never good, it was just that there were very few greats Centers in the league. *Joakim Noah- Top 4 in the MVP vote ( 2014 ).* *Deandre Jordan- All-Nba First Team ( 2016 ).*

[Glenn Robinson.]

It was thanks to Roy Hibbert that the Indiana Pacers were able to win 3 games against the Miami Heat in the 2013 Eastern Conference Finals. In 2013, Paul George ( age 22 ) was not yet a superstar, only averaged 17-ppg. on 42%. Roy Hibbert in the 2012/13 season: 12-ppg. FG-44%. But Prime Lebrton James and the Miami Heat let Roy Hibbert dominate. 2013 ECF: *Roy Hibbert=22-ppg. FG-55%.* Lebron fans have the nerve to say that Lebron can defend 1-5 positions.

[KYJev]

basketball changed, slow big men who can't shoot past 3 feet get phased out over time for big guys who can shoot. it's just how the game adapts and hibbert couldn't adapt.

[Ivanzter]

Seriously?

[Omilly Hooper]

I started playing with the pacers on 2k after this series. I swear 🙏

[Richard Gavanzo]

When wade assigned to guard hibbert was the game changer in this series

[Alex Marley Guitar]

Great point by kerr. If we had granger we could have made it past the heat.

[Sam Thomas]

PAUL GEORGE IS A NUMBER 1 OPTION!!

[gabbibbo]

Wade Vs George...love that match-up

[Bloodyheaders]

This is some good basketball right here

[Aidan Mungovan]

1:21:45 for PG's dunk on Birdman

[7-4 till the world blow]

I’ll never get the defense bron wanted them to run

[isaac west]

Thx

[Shiesty]

Thank u

[RD_smokes]

i like that you know hes birdman

[BigDaddy16]

@Isaiah , ,

[RnDBhardcore]

This is how basketball is supposed to be played with actual defense and offensive play calling and not just launching threes

[NBA Guy]

58:50 that pass !!

[Sean Anderson]

I'm a big Pacers fan! Cant believe we didn't play in one Finals with this team :/

[Nicc W]

At the same time I wonder if granger wasn’t injured would pg still of developed into that role

[YC99 Official]

incredible imagining how a .605 pacers team pushed a .805 heat team to 7 games

[Jordan Rangel]

Gooood times, gooood times.

[K Bonilla2.0]

Roy Hibbert balled out. Crazy how fast his career end.

[Thrilla Babyy]

Lance Stephenson is funny as hell bro

[Huncho Southside]

Bruhh am still 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 rewatching him that crossover on lebron 1:38:35 inandout avoids double t goes around 360 layup was smooth than crossover on ray shot was funy as hell his one of my favorite players bruhh them reggie commentating is hating

[Elliott Novak]

If only the Duo of PG and Granger lasted longer!

[Shiesty]

pg on the pacers was something i would call him a monster matter of fact

[andrew]

Who’s here after they just had another duel to begin the season?

[PG 13PACERNATION]

Hibbert was such a beast man

[Bryan AMBIERO]

I would like to watch the two series. 2013 and 2014.

[djvasforever]

Please upload another PG-13 vs LBJ epic duel Cleveland - Indiana April 20, 2017, I think it was game one, first round.

[OLaBoLa]

[Moises John Barien]

[Joe Jonas]

1:21:47 Paul George's iconic dunk on Birdman. Thank me later 😉😘

[Dad E]

@Victor Fernandez please ban me sir I need a new account any way gay boi.

[Victor Fernandez]

[Dad E]

@Victor Fernandez dawg who are you lmao

[Victor Fernandez]

@Dad E I’ll get you banned from KZbin

[Shiesty]

PG dunking on the birdman is the best lol

[Ser Fernando Montalvo]

This game was on my 18th birthday! GO HEAT

[infintely evolving]

This was Paul George’s coming out party 🎉

[Marko Btw]

If PG didn't break his leg he would've been MVP by now

[Niko Bellic]

Pandemic Pee

[Стася Козина]

1:21:45 for PG's dunk on Birdman

[KINGJAYSWISHIII _]

[Felix Jenkins]

Yep definately

[Horasi Parada Banestota. XI IPS 1. 14]

He will

[Matthew Jefferson]

Can we get all of the pacers heat games uploaded they are some of my fav games

[Rico Bartolome]

Imagine if the Pacers Most Scoring player in that year Danny Granger not injured probably they can win this Series

[Swifty Kj]

Commentators: *say Stephenson touched the ball last* Everybody else who saw the replay: "WHAT...IN DEE HELL...Are you talking bout"

[Sports311]

This was game 2 of the eastern conference finals. This was a knockdown, drag-out game

[Allan Houston]

2013 Pacers: *In 2013, Paul George ( age 22 ) was not yet a superstar, only avergaed 17-ppg. on 42%.* Post-prime David West and the overrated Roy Hibbert. vs LBJ, D Wade, Chris Bosh and old Ray Allen. Still needed 7 games to beat the Pacers.

[Isaiah “let’s go” Brandon]

Loved this pacers team

[Emmanuel Leo]

Paul george woulda been the best player in the league for many years if he never got injured ONG

[Sohaib Mir]

@Josh bro Paul George is clutch did you even watch him in OKC?

[Josh]

I just don’t think he is clutch enough, and I don’t know how much that is due to his injury or not.

[GC33]

I was a senior in high school during these classic battles

[Tellitlikeitisfresh !]

Man this was the good ol days wish we can rewind to 2013 man them days was lit music , basketball, football everything was lit. Look at pg everything looks so easy for him. Look at a superteam still going 7 games with thus team tells u lots about heat. They really wasn't that good

[Sheree Wilkins]

Imagine what a great Western Conference Finals that will be LeBron will win for sure

[FriendsWit DaDealer]

LeBron was getting on Chalmers the entire game, then he ended up blowing it at the end.

[mashall mathers]

awesome game

[Damon 23]

Back when we had real crowd noise

[Victor Fernandez]

I’ll get you banned from KZbin for saying real crowd noise instead of saying Back when we had crowds during games.

[Gggg Yhjj]

Stephan curry really changed the game

[IRON MIKE - PUTS ALL KINDA VIDEOS]

WADE was playing through knee injuries in 2013. KING JAMES carried the load

[Philippe Amarger]

Craig Sager with the drip, RIP

[Drippin Out]

He was always fresh

[blackralph1]

We gotta the crowd back

[нighlyoрi{nion}aтed]

I've been fiendin for some NBA , this will do

[Brian Ditto]

I hope they start the season in May so bad

[Zach Letter]

If only it wasn’t for the leg injury

[唐义奇]

i can't believe that! he is a god all the time

[BigTrisStreams]

Great series! I remember this shit

[1]

PG13 😤😤 low-key his prime

[Cryostic]

I remember this my first time watching NBA. I admired and aspired to be Paul George, now I have a mansion.

[Munish Yadav]

It feels like heat+ refs vs pacers.

[sharon Rada]

I love hearing kerr talk basketball

[MOE’S UNIVERSE]

can you do the Knicks pacer series when hibbert blocked Melo I believe the year was like 2012 or 2011 or maybe sometime between 2011-2014

[MOE’S UNIVERSE]

@Dave Louie that's the series we need that was a great series in my eyes

[Dave Louie]

2013 playoffs

[Eli wright]

I miss NBA 2k14

[stiicky MUSIC]

Curious to know birdmans peace with the refs after he got dunked on...

[Gilboimesh]

Back when Kerr was still a commentator

[vanherwarde]

1:27:34 when PG breaks LBJ’s ankles

[Stephen Curry]

vanherwarde he actually stumbled

[Hemi Slidn]

good times man

[Mark Carmona]

2013 had to be the last physical year of the NBA

[Rover Johnson]

2014 was pretty physical too. It all started in 2015 with Curry. I feel like 2016-2019 was the perfect balance.

[Liam Rennison]

Yea for sure!! God i miss this style.. l

[patricija]

In 2 years, Roy Hibbert decides he is the worst player in the NBA

[Glenn Robinson.]

@patricija Roy Hibbert was only good against Lebron, his best playoff series of his career. Lebron couldn"t play defensively against this bum,who, even in his prime, averaged 12-ppg. In 2013, Paul George ( age 22 ) was not yet a superstar, only averaged 17-ppg. on 42%. David West and the overrated Roy Hibbert. Still needed 7 games to beat the Pacers.

[patricija]

@Glenn Robinson. Bro i get that you are either young or did not watch those games so it's okay... PlayOff basketball slows down and it wasn't filled with 3pt shooting back then so Roy and West had an easy time dominating in the paint. LeBron can guard all positions but he did not guard Roy Hibbert dumbdumb..PG13 and Lance were his main targets.. chill and relax

[Glenn Robinson.]

@patricija Prime Roy Hibbert ( age 24-29 ): Per Game ( 2010-2015 )=12-ppg. FG-46%. 7-rpg. 2-bpg. Roy Hibbert was a very ineffective player. Roy Hibbert in the 2012/13 season: 12-ppg. FG-44%. But Lebron James and the Miami Heat let Roy Hibbert dominate. 2013 ECF: Roy Hibbert=22-ppg. FG-55%. Lebron fans have the nerve to say that Lebron can defend 1-5 positions.

[patricija]

@Glenn Robinson. Nah he was. He had big impact on his tm. I didn't say he was a great center but he made Miami-Pacers series one of the more fun series last decade(along with others on that Pacers tm)

[Glenn Robinson.]

@patricija Roy Hibbert was never good, it was just that there very few great Centers in the league, the competition was very weak. *Joakim Noah- Top 4 in the MVP vote ( 2014 ).* *Deandre Jordan- All-Nba First Team ( 2016 ).*

[substanxe]

there are so many damn free throws in this game. some of the calls more dubious than others.

[Sergio Fabrietti]

Steve Kerr commenting this game, unaware he would have made history in a couple of years.

[Benjamin An]

41:46 Lol pushed him with both hands.

[Justice 4All]

Steve Kerr is a goated coach but I REALLY miss him on commentary.

[Koh Smoger]

Forever living Young Like mark jackson? Oh wait

[Justice 4All]

Forever living Young you have to remember that there were 4 all stars but the rest of the team, well, on separate teams they are deep bench players who get little to no minutes. If they're on a team. Also every good team needs a good coach. Even Jordan had Phil Jackson. You need someone who will get everyone on one accord.

[Chidori]

Forever living Young you saying that proves your ignorance

[KM LP]

Back when steve kerr is only a commentator before the warriors dynasty.

[KobeisGoated]

This pg could have been the best player in the league

[Ovais A]

@Mad Mathurin GOAT You already know Kawhi would have found a way to be better than PG but he'd be a top 5 player probably

[toto maxwell]

instead he is a joke right now.how about that

[Neuros]

PG24 Was one of the deadliest weapons outta Pacers
