PG was the better two-way player, and I'd say the 2nd best in the league at his apex (behind Bron, of course), until he broke his leg.
Because Melo & T Mac were so gifted offensively, they’ll win the poll over PG but he’s better overall
RE: Highest peak like the meme suggested: T-Mac

Yeah, I don't remember a time when Paul George was ranked that highly.
I do value 2 way players, and I'm not mad at anyone saying PG was better all-around than TMac, but I think the TMac's offense was far enough ahead of PG's that it outweighs the difference in their defense.
03 T-Mac so far ahead of them other dudes it's not even close lol
It’s T-Mac. PG with the Pacers was great but McGrady was a scoring machine.
PG in indy was only ever the cat who had next.
Idk why we acting like he actually had it.
he was the worst version of himself in Indy
Idk it’s weird I guess guys either forgot about back then or they really don’t care for what he’s done the past 5 years
I think people look at his teams success with the Pacers and him being the leader of that squad with decent, but not elite supporting teammates.
It honestly makes a lot of sense why Paul George might be looked at so highly if you factor that in with him actually being good on offense and defense
Out of those 2 very good years
PG gave you 17 and 7 and then 21 and 7
He was never better than Durant who won MVP one of these years

To help figure this out, I looked up their stats. Using the 4th thru the 8th season (a good case for their PRIME years), we can see who was the best:
