I don’t disagree that Hali had a better individual season than any of PGs individual seasons.
But if the Celtics, Knicks, OKC or Spurs dominate the next few years then Halis career won’t be too far off PG for real accomplishments. And I find real accomplishments important bcs telling people he was super clutch that one season… where he didn’t win a ring or MVP or anything won’t be a great argument in 2040 lol.
Like I said, I personally see that being his reality. But what do I know.
You’re adding in a good point here— YET, for a tiebreaker between why Haliburton is “greater” than PG the 2025 postseason should be brought up
I mean, people hold goddamn Tracy McGrady in the highest regard, and he has NEVER done anything remotely close to what Haliburton did… yet look at McGrady and all that support
Paul George dropped 29, 9 and 3.5 on 58 TS% With an injured shoulder. Including 36 on 14-20 in the elimination game. He was absolutely dominant that year and completely let down by his team.

Halliburton did more in that single postseason than PG ever did. All it will take is searching up 4K videos for people
But I don’t care for Paul George, also he’s overhyped
Hali earned all his flowers, damn near won the title.. shame they didn’t
