Paul George is a Southern California native, but it is reportedly no sure
thing that he will sign with the Los Angeles Lakers this offseason.

ESPN's Stephen A. Smith cited sources on his Stephen A. Smith Show who said
they aren't sure George will ink a contract with the Purple and Gold. Smith
noted the Oklahoma City Thunder plan on offering him a max contract, and it
will "be hard for him to pull away from that" when combined with his positive
relationship with Russell Westbrook.

However, Smith pointed out George's wife and parents would prefer him to sign
with the Lakers.

Failing to land George could be a problem for the Lakers, Smith explained,
because LeBron James could wait to see who else they add before potentially
signing with them this offseason.

Getting George would be that much more important in that scenario, especially
if the Lakers are unable to trade for Kawhi Leonard.

While ESPN.com's Adrian Wojnarowski reported the San Antonio Spurs star
prefers to be traded to the Lakers, Smith said it is "not a foregone
conclusion" that will happen if the Spurs wait and work on the relationship
or ship him elsewhere so he is not an immediate threat in the West.

Whichever team ultimately signs George will have one of the NBA's best
two-way players as an anchor for the 2018-19 campaign.

He is a five-time All-Star, four-time All-NBA selection and three-time
All-Defensive selection who averaged 21.9 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.3 assists
and 2.0 steals per game in 2017-18 for the Thunder. The Lakers have been
missing a player of his caliber since they last made the playoffs in 2012-13.

The Lakers are one of the most storied franchises in sports history and can
pitch George on the coming-home storyline. However, they will reportedly have
their hands full trying to convince him to leave Oklahoma City even though
the Thunder flamed out in the first round of the playoffs while relying on
Westbrook, George and Carmelo Anthony.


內文大意：
ESPN的Stephen A. Smith說：
雷霆計畫出最高合同來留住PG
湖人目前則不確定要不要搶PG
不過如果要搶LBJ PG是很重要的 尤其不確定能不能交易到KL
雖說如此
PG的老婆和父母希望PG加入湖人


短評或心得：
一邊是兄弟和大約，一邊是家鄉和家人，PG這下難選了。
