Give and Go: Paul George's return

Give and Go: Paul George's impact on Indy, Toronto's fool's gold and more

Will the return of Paul George boost the Pacers this season or is his presence too little too late?

In the latest episode of Give and Go, SI.com's Chris Mannix talks to Ben Golliver about three of the biggest topics in the NBA. This week they discussed...

• Can Paul George help the Pacers close the playoff gap? Indiana's star showed glimpses of his former self in his return. Can the All-Star fuel a late postseason run for the Pacers?

• Are the Raptors contenders or pretenders? Toronto is 5-5 in its last 10 games and the hot start to the Raptors' season is long gone. Even worse: the team's defense has been worse than the lowly Knicks's since the All-Star break.

• Can Nikola Mirotic upset Andrew Wiggins and win Rookie of the Year? The Wolves star has put up better stats on the season, but the Bulls rookie is making an important contribution on a title contender. Will Mirotic's late push lead to the hardware?
