    Clipps going to have to get him a splint for his finger with all that pointing he's doing.

    I'm no fan of Docs, but it ain't his fault you went missing in the bubble.

    honestly, i was wary of kawhi the whole time (more than most, iirc), but PG's d******ery has surprised me. i guess it started when he didn't stick to his guns in his trade demand from indy. i was like...this dude is weak--he was about to get what he wanted, then he caved from media/fan pressure. compare that to AD, who just put on his headphones when people started giving him crap about getting out.

    anyway, i wanted the lakers to give up more for PG--and i think that was a good idea at the time. but the benefit of hindsight (we got lebron and AD anyway) shows that we were lucky we botched that one.

    Yeah, I'm really surprised at PG's journey to where he is today. I liked him when he was in Indy, thought he'd be a great fit for us. Felt terrible for him with his injury and the collective NBA supported him, only to give up all that good will and turn into one of the biggest j******es in the entire game.

    yeah, i was a big george fan, basically up until he went weird with the televised fake choice for okc. it was fine he wanted to stay, but it was clear that he was trying to have his cake and eat it too via filming and televising a bogus journey through FA. follows it up a forced trade right the year after committing, then goes all furcoat diva upon joining the clippers. at this point, he seems completely oblivious to the fact that his stature has dropped and it's pretty much entirely his fault.

    These mocking billboard shots appear o be real ... wonder who is ponying up the money for them? Surely it’s going to piss off this pair who were the entitled a-holes last year and motivate them, like their billboards motivated the Lakers.


    That usually would mean far more practice and intensity and effort in games all year looking for redemption. And on Lue who was there last year seeing what happened now on hot seat himself with Ballmer to turn it around. Has to be a lot less of the load managing crap, so especially for Snake it’s going to be a real test to see how that quad holds up now.

    Or they’re just photoshopped? But the point remains the same .... they have been mocked for 3 straight months now for their act this past season.

    Right. Paul George for all his obvious talent has fallen off the charts. I can't remember seeing anybody wearing a George jersey (weird they call them jerseys when they are more like singlets don't Cha think?). I bet if you see jerseys they are more likely to be old Thunder or Pacer ones. It might be different in LA (any reconnaissance or confirmations from locals?)

    George is not a franchise player who you start a franchise with.

    At this moment with his diva attitude and underperforming he might be the man to start a TANK. Maybe the Thunder might take him back for the 2050-2055 Clipper draft picks. The Thunder should really rename themselves the Oklahoma Drafters or the Oklahoma Draft Picks.

    Paul George is NOT a top twenty players (probably) he is starting to get edged outl I made this list real quick. Let's see, who is better or bigger (reputation popuarity profile)

    1 Lebron 2 Anthony Davis 3 James Harden 4 Steph Curry 5 Kevin Durant 6 Kyrie Irving 7 Kawhai Leonard 8 Zion Williams (hey hype counts too) 9 Devin Booker 10 Donovan Mitchell Jr (because he actually did something in the playoffs besides exposing himself and PAUL GEORGE being BACKBOARD P), 11 Damian Lillard 12 Ben Simmons 13 Giannis Antetokounmpo 14 Luka Doncic 15 Bradley Beal 16 Trae Young (yeah I said it) 17 Kristaps Porzingis healthy (is that an oxymoron?) 18 Jimmy Butler 19 Russel Westbrook (lol) 20 Chris Paul (lol) 21 Honorable mention Le Playoff Rondo.

    So as a non-top twenty player with an entitled attitude he is a number one on the Knicks or a number two and uncharitably a super third option who will destroy chemistry.

    Paul George you suck. Good luck with those hall of fame credentials

    Doc wanted Paul to play like Ray Allen.

    You fool, you are no Jesus Shuttleworth, you are just Backboard P the LA Judas!

    Preseason P should have never changed his jersey from #24.

    He has had flashes of MVP play in brief runs, but has disappeared when it mattered the most. He deserves all the hate for acting like he’s accomplished being a superstar before he’s actually won anything. I don’t think he ever will either if he’s out there trying to blame his coach for his shortcomings.

    if you are such a great player/leader, go to the coach with proposed changes instead of playing armchair quarterback months later. It’s embarrassing and inexcusable.

    His Pacers almost beat Lebron’s. Maybe it’s time Vogel gets more credit for that run and using his players in the best way possible.
