​Sitting at a mediocre 22-18 this season, there's been talks about the Thunder potentially breaking up the big three, and ​trading away Paul George.





That won't be the case though, as the Thunder are fully committed to George this season, and want him in their future plans.

​​"For now, the Thunder are fully committed to playing out the season with impending free agent Paul George," Wojnarowski said. "They still have hope that a strong run in the playoffs could convince him to re-sign in Oklahoma City."





Even though they haven't been dominant this season, the Thunder have made some a ​good impression with George. He's been impressed with the overall culture of the organization.





The Thunder have also been playing better as of late, winning eight of their last 10 games. Russell Westbrook, Carmelo Anthony, and George seem to have finally figured out how to play with each other.

Russell Westbrook, Paul George and Carmelo Anthony have scored at least 20 points in 3 straight games.

A player could have his mind made up about where he wants to play, but a deep playoff-run, and a championship could quickly change their mind.





The Thunder are hoping that happens with George.
