Yeah, I was going to post this yesterday, but after reading his actual quote it just comes off as prime click-bait. Bad look to be whining about anything at this point, but that's a classic today's media "story" that actually isn't.

I was gonna say...He didn't say he was bored with playing basketball. Media is just scum. They take one little thing a person says and spin it for views. Absolutely disgusting. For those that don't get it...He's basically saying he's not a center and doesn't want to play a small vallfive which is totally understandable. It ridiculous that Nick Nurse has put him there. I guess it really has gotten that bad with Embiids injuries and Drummonds toe issue. Don't get me wrong...I still don't support Paul George being on this team. I wish it never would have happened, but done is done and Paul George or not, it's not fair that the media scapegoats and baits like this. You're going to get a million idiots who don't actually delve into his comments making dumbass replies now. I get it though...A cockroach still has to eat.

Exactly. Best ways to get clicks when the team isn't winning....Scapegoat someone more than they deserve.
