Today’s Paul George frenzy all started with this tweet.
Even though many people had been assuming this news for months now, it had never been made this official or this unambiguous. Paul George will not be a Pacer after next season, full stop. Reactions to this news varied widely, and understandably so. Some were very happy.
That tweet came just 23 minutes after the initial Woj bomb. Some, however, were not so happy.
Others attempted to see the humor in the situation.
