Angelus on 01 July 2017
Seems to me the Thunder just did the Lakers a huge favor. If Paul George had been traded somewhere like Boston, Cleveland, or Houston, as people were talking about, he might have been enticed to stay with those teams beyond the 1 year. They would have been highly competitive, and that's a hard thing to walk away from. But now.....OKC? Small market. Team definitely won't be good enough to challenge for the championship, or even the conference championship in my mind. Plus there's a decent chance I think that Russ and George won't get on that well.
So I think it's pretty much a lock at this point, Paul George will be a Laker next year.
