Paul George has admitted that the Indiana Pacers are "having fun" on the court following the victory over the Boston Celtics.

Indiana, who beat the Celtics 106-79 on Sunday night, have the best record in the Eastern Conference and George believes that they can still improve.

"We are a tough basketball team, we know that we can play, we know that we can improve," the 23-year-old told reporters. "We are having fun out there because we are getting to know each other better.

"We're starting the game off with high energy and we're ending the game with high energy and in between we're maintaining that energy."

The Pacers have lost just five of their 27 games this season.
