There has been so much turmoil in our lives of late I thought I’d post this today in appreciation of Chris Paul’s season in Oklahoma City.
Whether the NBA successfully restarts its season in August doesn’t matter. Chris Paul came back to Oklahoma City in the trade for Russell Westbrook and was the perfect fit for Billy Donovan and Sam Presti.
His professionalism and clutch play were key in OKC’s surprising 40-24 season which was ended in March by the COVID-19 play stoppage.
He was clearly the Thunder’s MVP as he formed a three guard tandem with SGA and Dennis Schroder which was one of the best three guard tandems in the league.
I have no idea if the NBA will be able to successfully pull off this COVID restart in August, but either way it goes Chris Paul’s season in Oklahoma City was an extreme positive for every fan of the Thunder.
