As the Thunder’s season comes to a close, the immediate question is not one of coaching changes, injuries, or offensive schemes — though all are relevant. No, it is a question of just what Paul George is thinking about his potential future in Oklahoma City, and what sorts of things could affect his decision on whether to stay or leave.
If you’ve ever watched TNT’s coverage of the NBA playoffs, you may have seen that they have a segment called “Gone Fishing” when a team is eliminated. In Paul George’s case, that may well be literally what he does, as he has spoken about his love for fishing a few times since arriving here in OKC. Will he trade Grand Lake for something like Castaic Lake in the Los Angeles area? I suppose we’ll find out this summer.
