Recently, retired Bucks star Michael Reed said on social media: "If the Thunder wins the championship this year, they should invite Durant and Westbrook to participate in the championship celebration, because more than 10 years ago, Dewey Double Young Master laid a solid fan base for this team." Under the social media update, many netizens reminded the Thunder: "If it is true as Michael Reed predicted, don't forget to invite Paul George, because he helped you get Alexander."

In the summer of 2019, when everyone's eyes were focused on Xiaoka, the Clippers and the Thunder finalized a 9-for-1 deal, and the Clippers gave Alexander, Garlinari, 5 first rounds, and 2 first round swaps, and got Paul George.

Now, George has gone to Philadelphia, while Alexander has grown into an MVP-level superstar. It is worth mentioning that among the five first rounds the Clippers gave that year, one of them eventually became Jaylen Williams.

This year's playoffs (as of G1 of the Western Conference Finals), Alexander averaged 29.2 points + 5.8 rebounds + 6.6 assists, with a shooting percentage of 47%; Jaylen Williams averaged 19.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 5.7 assists, with a shooting percentage of 44%.

Let's put it this way, George's big deal is equivalent to bringing two team-building cores to the Thunder, so it's no wonder that many netizens want the Thunder to invite George to the celebration after winning the championship.
