It seems like his value has been overshadowed by his teammate, Russell Westbrook, but don't forget George is a 5-time All-Star, a 4-time All-NBA third team talent, a 2-time All-Defensive second team player, and he has been named in the All-Defensive first team once in 2014.
His resume is very impressive but his numbers and his play from this past season are definitely worse than his prior seasons. This is to be expected due to playing alongside Westbrook. The Western Conference is tough. The Thunder need to improve from their "super-team" from last year, and hopefully, they can go past the first round.
