Paul George: We Just Don't Have The Habits Of A Champion

Paul George was critical of the Philadelphia 76ers after their 142-110 loss to the Chicago Bulls on Monday. The Sixers now have the sixth worst record in the NBA and Joel Embiid could miss the rest of the season.
"We've shown no sign of a team that will compete," said George. "We just don't have the habits of a champion, or a playoff contending team, would have. To be honest, right now it's a little far-fetched. All we can do is work hard and try to just keep going."
George is averaging 16.2 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.2 assists in 32.2 minutes over his first 38 games with the Sixers. George's PER has dropped from 19.3 to 14.7 since 23-24.

I know, and I haven't played since HS. It might be hard to tell if you have enough to win a championship, but it can be fairly obvious when you don't.

The real problem is they don't have the knees of a championship team.
just one man's opinion.

Never understood where playoff p started. Indiana they had a full team that couldn't get past Lebron All I remember from OKC is Ingles punking him and Lillard sending him home. His time with the clippers isn't worth mentioning. To me, Philly giving him this money and phx trading for Beal just kind of shows the influence media hyoe can have on poor GMS.
