Multiple Sixers react to the pending return of Paul George vs. Bulls
Multiple members of the Philadelphia 76ers react to the pending return of Paul George against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday.
PHILADELPHIA -- The Philadelphia 76ers will welcome back a key piece to their success on Wednesday when Paul George returns from his 25-game suspension in a matchup with the Chicago Bulls. The time is now for the Sixers to make a push into the top 6 in the Eastern Conference. A finish in the No.
5 seed is very attainable as they are only 1. 5 games back of the sliding Toronto Raptors with 10 to play and they do have the tiebreaker over the Raptors. The Sixers fell to the Oklahoma City Thunder 123-103 on Monday, but knowing that George is set to return is a big lift for everybody.
"It’s Paul George, man," beamed VJ Edgecombe. "He’s elite. He's elite.
He's one of the smoothest players to ever touch a basketball. He's a two-way player at that. So for him to get back on the floor means a lot.
