SF 2 - Paul George (Oklahoma City Thunder):
The Oklahoma City Thunder, as we read in one of the previous slides, has been performing really well this season. They are 3rd in the Western Conference, with a 21-11 record and have the 4 of their last 5 matches. Their next game is against the Houston Rockets and they will all they can get to counter the scoring threat from James Harden by unleashing Paul George.
George has been on a tear of late, averaging a massive 35 points in their last 5 games, along with more than 10 rebounds per game and 5 assists too. This stretch has pushed his name into the MVP conversation of late and if this continues, it will make him a dark horse this season.
