Paul George made headlines this week when he said that the Los Angeles Lakers were “pissed” that they didn’t get a meeting with him in NBA free agency this summer, but given that the team signed LeBron James, George’s comments only made him look like the one with sour grapes.
Instead of coming home to Southern California and teaming up with James, George almost immediately agree to terms on a four-year, $137 million deal to stay with Russell Westbrook and the Oklahoma City Thunder.
