Paul George Defied The Odds, Invented A New Way To Lose By Becoming The First Player Ever Denied In An Attempted Jersey Swap

I feel for Playoff P. I genuinely do. The internet fucking hates this guy just because he’s a second tier All Star. Guy was a top three MVP candidate in OKC, he couldn’t signal a touchdown because his shoulders were fucked and went out and shit all over the court come that postseason. It’s been all downhill since when it comes to his perception. Self-nickname guys rarely if ever get the benefit of the doubt. In fact it’s really just Kobe who ever got away with it, and that’s because his fans are sociopaths. But back to the video.

I understand the Clippers are chasing a ring. In all likelihood this is the best chance LA’s little brother has at getting their lone ring. And while a suspension at this stage isn’t the brightest idea, Paul George absolutely has to swing on Luka here. Man took his jersey off, showered his opponent with praise and adulation, only to get dunked on after the clock hit triple zero. Like yeah you catch a few games in a suspension but you sleep well the rest of your life with your dignity in tact. Paul George is no different than the adult autograph seekers you see waiting outside every sports venue in America with binders full of 8x10s. I don’t know how I now respect Reggie Jackson more than Paul George but the game is the game, it’s out of my control.
