Sometimes injuries can be blessing in disguise. for me George's problem was lack of leadership and consistency. I'm sure he spent this half of year thinking how can he become the next Lebron or Durant. and I heard he perfected his body which is good.
Imagine if George comes back to what he was last season by playoff time? No one will want to play the Pacers. Sort of like the poor Warriors. So you finished with the best record in the league? Here's Westbrook and Durant who happened to be hurt for large chunks of the season as your reward.
