Both teams improved in a different kind of way so it's time to move on and wish all Thunder players a great season

Pacers coach Nate McMillan believes that George’s current situation in Oklahoma City suits his personality. Westbrook is the Thunder’s unquestioned emotional and floor leader. When McMillan coached George last season, the uncertainty about his future was the elephant in the room. George was the face of the franchise, and was expected to shoulder more responsibility as a leader. But when George was a younger player with the Pacers, veterans like David West, Danny Granger, George Hill, and Roy Hibbert were team leaders. When those players moved on, George was left behind. McMillan sensed George was never completely comfortable trying to assert himself as a vocal leader.
“Things changed for him,” said McMillan after a recent practice. “Some guys just want to play. Having a C (for captain) on their chest doesn’t mean anything to them. They just want to play.
“You have to be yourself, and not try to be something that you’re not. I think Paul just wanted to play. The leadership, and the captain, and all of that? Sometimes people put you in that position because of your status. I think his thing was, ‘You take care of you, and I take care of me. Get yourself ready to play.’ Going to OKC, he’s back in that role of – I play. The leader is going to be Westbrook. I can go here and play.”
Knowing how great his stats still were when playing uncomfy, I say Durant watch out when he is playing comfy
