Despite Westbrook, Paul George Wants To Win MVP Next Season
Most people think that with Paul George joining the Oklahoma City Thunder, he has been downgraded to a second option.
But not according to George himself, whose goal is to win the MVP award.
At the Nike NBA statement jersey reveal, George was the model to represent the new Thunder jersey. Before the reveal, PG talked to NBA TV’s Dennis Scott, and told him about his goal to win MVP next season.

George also was asked about playing with Westbrook. He told Westbrook that he would give him a boost:
“I told him I’m here to help give him a boost. Hard to make guy who averaged triple-double better.”
