Paul George was late to the interview podium following the Pacers' Game 6 victory over Toronto on Friday, having iced his legs, showered, dressed and who knows what else after their 101-83 victory over Toronto at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
When he got there, unsmiling and stoic, his words didn't seem to jibe with his demeanor.
"Really looking forward to it," he said quietly. "Really excited about this Game 7."
Game 7 comes Sunday evening in Toronto, where the Pacers try to upset the second-seeded Raptors. They earned the trip with an unlikely victory where their actions didn't seem to jibe with their first-half demeanor.
