    Paul George Staying in OKC

    PG one of the biggest free agents this year and chose to stay in OKC to play more years with Russ

    To some extent this vindicates OKC and Russ, Nd is an i dictment against LBJ

    PG knows the landscape of free agency, knows LBJ gonna go to LA, he grew up in SoCal yet chose to stay in OKC

    Happy for OKC, PG and Russ

    Hopefully they can get even better. Will be tough with that Melo as deadweight and a massive conteact but Presti is one of the best

    CP3 got a 4/160 extension...at his age... Dumb as fck

    Lakers probably ain't gonna get Lebron now. No way he goes to LA and lead a team of scrubs to be the 3rd or 4th best team in the West. He'll stay in the East and keep going to the Finals

    Stupid move by PG. He could've won a title in LA with LeBron. He could have gotten knocked out of the first round like he did in OKC even without LeBron.

    Why? They bounced Boston with a team that played together for all of 11 games? Why couldn't the Cav's beat Boston next year with an entire year playing together under their belt? Big men are very overrated in today's NBA.

    I'm pretty sure Lebron knew already.

    It's probably why he was texting Durant, if you believe that story.

    Good for Paul George. This says a ton for people who say Westbrook is a cancer.

    Report: Russell Westbrook Throwing House Party in Oklahoma City, Paul George Attending


    By JENNA WEST June 30, 2018


    Russell Westbrook is reportedly throwing a house party on Saturday night, and his Thunder teammate Paul George will attend, according to ESPN.
    Westbrook is having a "summer hype house party" with around 500 guests. Rapper Nas is expected to perform, and the invitation read "The FOMO will be real," reports ESPN.
    The reason for Westbrook throwing the party is unclear, but it coincides with the same night NBA free agency begins.
    George will become a free agent at 12:01 a.m. ET on Sunday. He declined his player option on Thursday but is reportedly considering signing a two- or three-year deal to stay with the Thunder, according to The New York Times's Marc Stein.
    George is also rumored to be considering signing with the Lakers and 76ers.
    The Thunder traded for George last July, sending Victor Oladipo and Domantas Sabonis to the Pacers.

    Not sure if that has been the case for years, but I do believe that it's true now

    People say no one wants to play with Russ but who has chosen not to play with Russ?

    KD played with Russ for 9 years.

    Kyrie won a title with Lebron and left him. Now PG13 chose not to goto his childhood favorite team after Lebron went there.

    There is actually more evidence that people don’t want to play with Lebron.

    When Lebron’s teams win bc Ray Allen or Kyrie Irving hit a clutch shot, it’s all because of King James. When Lebron’s teams lose, his supportiving cast sucks.

    If you're George, you’ll get credit in OKC in the team wins and if they don’t win everyone will just blame Westbrook like they always do. Throw in 140 million and I’m not sure why people are shocked he stayed in OKC.

    He wanted the payday, he's a former shell of himself since the gruesome leg break with the Olympic team

    He knows it, his agent knows it, everyone knows it so hed rather cash in than chase rings

    Have you seen him play this past yr? He's scared, almost never drives if the lane isn't WIDE open and shoots more 3s than ever before

    I've had injuries and surgeries on my legs, nothing nearly as gruesome as his was but it's a mental thing. Very difficult to overcome and freely drive into and with traffic without fear as it was preinjuries

    Why does everyone say, “PG must not want rings?”

    You guys act like some team not named Golden State actually has a chance.

    Paul George could goto any team in the league and not have a shot to win a ring....unless he goes to the Warriors.
