NBA All-Star forward Paul George had 24 points and 10 rebounds for the Indiana Pacers in their victory over the Atlanta Hawks.
"I'm tired. But at this point whatever the coach needs me to do, I'll do," said George, who played all 24 minutes in the second half Saturday, reports Xinhua.
The Pacers were 2-2 even with the eighth-seeded Hawks in the playoffs first round after they beat the Hawks 91-88.
"This game could have gotten away from us and we'd be down 1-3. It's going to be a long series. This team is not going away. We just have to build some consistency," said George.
