The boos were there to welcome Paul George\u00a0back to Indiana.\u00a0 He\u00a0 did\u00a0\u00a0not play one of his better games tonight but Steven Adams strong inside play\u00a0and a fine performance by the Oklahoma City reserves allowed the Thunder to beat the Indiana Pacers 100-95.\u00a0 It was George\u2019s return to Indiana after his trade to OKC this summer.\u00a0 The win brings the Thunder to 13-14 and stops the Pacers winning streak at four games.<\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

George made two free throws with 10.7 seconds to go after he was fouled on a steal on the Pacers final possession.\u00a0 George was 3-14 from the floor with two rebounds and was roundly given the business on every touch.\u00a0 He seems to\u00a0not allow the home crowd get to him but his play\u00a0was not stellar.<\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Thunder were led by Adams with 23 points and 11 rebounds and Russell Westbrook with another triple double, getting 10 points, 15 rebounds, and 12 assists.<\/strong><\/span><\/h6>\n

OKC wins the series this season with the Pacers 2-0.\u00a0 OKC is\u00a0on the road at the\u00a076ers on\u00a0Friday in Philadelphia.\u00a0 OKC is 17-1 all time against them.<\/strong><\/span><\/h6>\n
