I think everybody, whether they have team goals or individual goals, I think everybody would like to be the MVP of the league. But that's not what my focus is. My job is just to give everything that I have, play as hard as I can, and just try to win as much as possible. If that makes me the MVP, then so be it.

Paul George

I know what I bring to the table. I know my game offensively and defensively. I think I'm one of the best, if not the best, playing two-ways.

Paul George

Yin Ways Way

Usually I've had two jobs: be the best defender and the best scorer.

Paul George

Usual Us Two

When I first fell in love with the game, and I'm outside playing in front of the house, I'm not picturing myself in an Indiana jersey or picturing myself in a Thunder jersey. I pictured myself in a Lakers jersey.

Paul George

Love Yin Wit

I'm going to play at the highest I can, the best I can every night. Wherever that lands me, that's where it lands me.

Paul George

Wherever Where Very

I have a goal to be the best player every time I touch that floor. Just be the best me.

Paul George

Time Very Us

I think me making the Select Team was huge. It was the chance for me to be around those guys and see their work ethic and how they prepare. I think that's what I took the most away from it.

Paul George

Work Chance Work Ethic

I grew up a Lakers and a Clippers fan.

Paul George

Up Per Lakers

I'm going to get paid what I deserve off of what I bring to the table.

Paul George

Table T Serve

My shoe has been going through evolution, and we having great feedback from the 1 to the 2 and the 2.5's, so I think just consistency. The biggest thing I wanted to accomplish was a shoe that basketball players loved and felt like they have an advantage out of.

Paul George

Love Great Age

As soon as I discovered PlayStation, I was throwing hints here and there to my dad - cutting out the clipping of a video game, cutting out the clippings of the PlayStation, leaving it on his dresser. I remember on Christmas morning, I unwrapped my gift, and sure enough, it was the PS2. I've been a PlayStation guy ever since.

Paul George

Morning Christmas Wrapped

I'm confident in what I can do.

Paul George

T ID I Can

I feel like you can dominate a game in so many ways. That's just always been my mindset, just play ball. Be a basketball player, and everything will fall into place.

Paul George

You Will Ways

In Indiana, I knew the offense in and out. I knew spacing; I knew personnel. I knew the offense, how coach wanted to play me. So when I just wanted to take over and control the game, I could.

Paul George

Wanted Want Us

I think everybody, whether they have team goals or individual goals, I think everybody would like to be the MVP of the league. But that's not what my focus is. My job is just to give everything that I have, play as hard as I can, and just try to win as much as possible. If that makes me the MVP, then so be it.

Paul George

Would Win Whether

In a way, it's like I want to come here, I want to play for the home team and put a Lakers jersey on. That's always going to be something that I want to fulfill.

Paul George

Home Ways Way

I've never been a guy that's been salty about the shots I'm getting. I just try to play the right way.

Paul George

Way Us Try

If it's a shot for me, if I can make a play, create for someone else, I'll do that. A lot of times you run a play, everybody's watching, everybody's locked in, everybody's pulling over, and it just makes the game tougher for me.

Paul George

Time You Watching

First and foremost, I want to give thanks to Indiana, as a state, for embracing me and my family for seven years of being there. I learned so much being there. They taught me so much.

Paul George

Family Years Year

I might be nervous off the court, being booed. But being on the court, it's my comfort zone. It's basketball. It's what I do. I'm not losing sleep over it.

Paul George

Zone Us T

When I told the Pacers I wanted to play for the Lakers, that was true feelings. I wanted to come back home.

Paul George

Home Wanted Want

You're not going to look at Paul and see him slacking, not carrying his weight. All the other stuff, 'Paul doesn't lead' and all that? That's fine. Go grab guys that lead, then. Let me help them lead.

Paul George

I just love playoff basketball.

Paul George

If my performance down the stretch lands me on the All-NBA, which I think I'm deserving of, then so be it. I'll be happy.

Paul George

Oklahoma, y'all truly made a big impact on me.

Paul George

My thing is, I like if I go on that court and there's a guy I don't have to worry about.

Paul George

LeBron is the best player in our league, but some people have a hard time playing with him.

Paul George

I've always been a guy to just let the game come to me. Just play the game.

Paul George

I can play in any offense and play off any player.

Paul George

I knew I had a lot to offer, and it was just about finding my niche and figuring it out.

Paul George

I always just take pride in being a basketball player.

Paul George

I haven't been in a position to be a free agent or know what that is like and then to have the chance to go where you want to go. That's always been - I feel, with players, they want that option.

Paul George

I love Indiana.

Paul George

For me, it's all about winning. I want to be in a good system, a good team.

Paul George

People saying I want to come here, who doesn't want to play for their hometown? That's a dream come true, if you're a kid growing up on the outskirts of L.A., to be the man in your city.

Paul George

I'm from L.A. I can say I love L.A. because I'm from L.A.

Paul George

You put two fiery all-stars on the same team, something special has to happen.

Paul George

I want every year to have a chance to compete for a championship.

Paul George

That's really the biggest thing, being happy in an organization that supports you and helps you grow and a city that supports you and a training staff.

Paul George

I know a little bit how it is coming back from an injury, trying to find your rhythm.

Paul George

I know who I am as a player, I just want to help a team win.

Paul George

I felt I was in a good place with Oklahoma.

Paul George

I love fashion but I don't necessarily have time to be looking stuff up.

Paul George

Nobody wants to play for a team that's not competitive.

Paul George

I felt I was immortal. I was invincible. I've made so many plays where guys go down, and I walked up clean from it. I did feel that nothing bad could ever happen to me on the court.

Paul George

I'm big on my community and want to stay that way.

Paul George

I don't ever feel cautious about making plays. I tell myself that injuries are more likely to occur if I try to play safe.

Paul George

Once I changed my diet, I noticed I had a ton of energy - I was more lively and ready for the workouts; my body was better. I noticed it was definitely the stuff I was putting in my body that made me feel better.

Paul George

I'm a family man now. I don't need no distractions; I don't need no big cities, no big lights, at this point in my career.

Paul George

As beautiful as Oklahoma is, it doesn't have big lights and none of that. But that's fine... I'm a low-maintenance, low-key, chill guy.

Paul George

I'm not out in the streets. I'm not out in the club, at parties. I'm not really at movie premieres. After games, after practice, I'm home, I'm with my kids, I'm with my girl, and I'm chilling.
