Paul George

If the Oklahoma City Thunder have their way, Paul George (player option) will re-sign with them in free agency. If they really have their way, he’ll be returning to a team that doesn’t include Carmelo Anthony. From Sporting News’ Sean Deveney: Keeping George in town has been the underlying goal since before the season started. The [...]

The Oklahoma City didn’t come anywhere close to meeting expectations in the 2017-18 season after acquiring Paul George and Carmelo Anthony in the off-season, losing in six games in the 1st round to the Utah Jazz. That is not exactly what anybody envisioned happening and makes Paull George’s free agency decision that much more interesting [...]

Plenty of people within the Los Angeles Lakers are no doubt worried about how appealing they’ll be to LeBron James (player option) and Paul George (player option) in free agency. Lonzo Ball doesn’t appear to be one of them. The Lakers’ players were asked about the team’s impending summertime plans following the end of their [...]

Currently in the No. 7 seed in the western conference, the Oklahoma City Thunder have not quite had the level of success many expected they would after acquiring Paul George and Carmelo Anthony this summer. While Melo hasn’t exactly fit in seamlessly alongside Russell Westbrook in OKC, Paul George has been pretty effective and has [...]

More than six months after trading Paul George to the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Indiana Pacers are, relative to expectations, sitting rather pretty. They have a firm hold on an Eastern Conference playoff spot, plenty of salary-cap flexibility and, ostensibly, three legitimate building blocks in All-Star Victor Oladipo, Myles Turner and Domantas Sabonis. It seems [...]

Paul George continues to sound like someone who has no intention of leaving the Oklahoma City Thunder in free agency this summer. And he no doubt hates that we’re saying that. George’s appreciation for Russell Westbrook’s impassioned defense of his All-Star case—before he was named a an injury replacement—caught the eye of just about everyone. [...]

The Los Angeles Clippers’ front office isn’t afraid to shoot its shot. Word broke in early January that the Clippers offered Blake Griffin to the Minnesota Timberwolves in a package built around Karl-Anthony Towns. Though many didn’t think much of it then, Los Angeles ultimately dealt its five-time All-Star to the Detroit Pistons on Monday, [...]

Russell Westbrook has thrown a wrench in the Los Angeles Lakers’ plan to sign Paul George in free agency this summer. And it’s a big one. Soon after the NBA’s All-Star reserves were announced and it was clear George didn’t make the cut, Westbrook made an impassioned defense of his teammate. And his words resonated…big [...]

LeBron James is no doubt annoyed the Cleveland Cavaliers have the NBA’s second-worst defense. He’s definitely frustrated they’ve lost 10 of their past 12 games. He can’t feel good about how close they are to dropping out of third place in the Eastern Conference. But, more than he’s ticked off at any of the aforementioned [...]

The Oklahoma City Thunder haven’t exactly played up to their or anybody else’s expectation thus far at 22-18 through 40 games. It has taken some time for the Thunder to effectively integrate their two star additions from the 2017 off-season: Carmelo Anthony and Paul George. While both are set to be free agents in the [...]
