“I think it got kind of misconstrued or [the] narrative kind of wasn’t written correctly with the relationship with Lawrence [Frank], the relationship with Steve Ballmer,” George said before the Sixers had their morning shootaround at UCLA. “I mean, they were awesome the whole time I was here. “Kind of the reason why it was such a shocking decision how it played out at the end. But they were awesome. My time here, I think that was kind of refreshing to be alongside and have a partnership like that with a front office. And so I think that was probably the highlight of the whole [time with the Clippers]. Just how great they were in my tenure here.”

Paul George said his relationship with Steve Ballmer and Lawrence Frank was awesome and why he looks back at his Clippers tenure positively. But he also said that’s why the ending was “shocking.” PG understands the business decision made by both sides: espn.com/nba/story/_/id…4:09 PM

Last time Paul George visited Clippers as a visitor
He hit this shot to give Thunder lead
But he never shot again afterwards, finishing with 15 points on 16 shots
Lou Will iced Thunder with this shot, finished with 40 off bench. Gallo outscored Russ 34 to 32. LAC won 118-110. pic.x.com/02KzJR24wp10:08 PM

Noah Levick @NoahLevick
Sixers’ injury report for tomorrow night’s game against LAC:
-Joel Embiid — out (league suspension)
-Paul George — probable (left knee bone bruise) – 8:33 PM
Austin Krell @NBAKrell
Joel Embiid is out due to league suspension for tomorrow’s game vs the Clippers, meaning he likely would not have been listed out with injury otherwise.
As Shams reported, the suspension thus covers games at Clippers, at Lakers and vs Hornets.
Paul George is probable. – 8:33 PM
Adam Aaronson @SixersAdam
Sixers officially have Joel Embiid listed as OUT on their injury report for tomorrow, under “League Suspension.” No mention of left knee injury management.
Additionally, Paul George is listed as PROBABLE (left knee bone bruise). – 8:31 PM

Law Murray: One of Paul George’s concerns while he was still with the Clippers last season was being a “Glue Guy” after Batum and Covington were traded Batum said today that PG wanted Nico to stay in Philly — For now, PG has to remain a #GlueGuy in 76ers lineup pic.x.com/JHSWXF25qO -via Twitter @LawMurrayTheNU / November 6, 2024
“We were able to get three guys who are tough, hard-playing guys,” Ballmer told ESPN of signing Derrick Jones Jr., Kris Dunn and Nico Batum. “And we still have the ability to consistently make ourselves better. So, it was the right choice for us. “Paul obviously thought it was the right choice for him. I’ll miss him. Very good human being. Like him a lot, except when they play us. Wish him all the best, just not when they play us. And he was a good Clipper.” -via ESPN / November 6, 2024
The Clippers were willing to make a deal with their division rival, according to sources, but were looking for something of value to help restock their asset cupboard if they were going to take back an undesirable contract and be in the second apron. Swapping Paul George for Andrew Wiggins, who has three years and $85 million left on a four-year, $109 million deal, plus other salaries to make the math work, would have been acceptable only if the Clippers received a young player such as Jonathan Kuminga or Brandin Podziemski and a pick or two. …. But league sources say Kuminga’s name never seriously came up in talks of any significance and the Clippers felt they weren’t getting enough positive assets to move forward in this new second apron world. “Nothing,” a league source told ESPN, “is better than something. -via ESPN / November 6, 2024
