Paul George: Doc Rivers tried to use me like JJ Redick + made no playoff adjustments.

People are going to hate the messenger more than the message. Two different teams said the same thing about Doc

With these interviews about last season, now we don’t have to listen to interviews about how he didn’t go to the Lakers.

Paul George has plenty of blame on his shoulders for what happened last season, but he ain't entirely wrong here.

George ALWAYS has someone else to blame for his failures, this is not new - seriously this guy always has some excuse. SMH at Clipper fans if they think they can count on this guy to deliver under pressure.

Before CP3 got traded to the suns he said he prefers to go to the clippers over the lakers now that DOC IS GONE. Lakers didnt need him.
Just pointing out Doc is not the great coach that some claim he is.

Clip of next week’s episode

The Kawhi article in the Athletic was bad enough, but now entitled PG saying that is why he sucked during the Playoffs takes the cake.

Lue or Chauncey needs to shut all these dudes up, especially in LA. Clippers were awesome when they were a rag tag fun bunch, now they sound like douches, including Beverly, etc. Poor Sweet Lou.

Sooo.... let me get this straight. He says doc used him wrong and explains how hed like to be used but infact doc actually did what he wanted? Lmfao, then complains about practise despite reports saying he and kawhi controlled practices. Lmfaoo

Excuses, excuses.

If Doc doesn’t have Seth Curry swing on PG13 when the clippers play Philly I’ll be shocked

Stop it laker fans especially crapped on us when we were rag tagged. Everything hits different when you have expectations and Doc’s history with expectation teams didn’t hold up

These people aren’t connecting the dots it’s either just to troll and run a fake narrative. George probably shouldn’t of been the one to say it but it needed to be said

He'd be better on a team as the third star

PG hasn’t tried to do much besides shoot jumpers for years. C’mon man....dude is crazy overrated.

Does PG have a PR person because if so they aren't doing their job. PG low key has a problem with self owning.

TheGOATWill · Post #76 » by **TheGOATWill** » Wed Dec 2, 2020 11:59 pm

what part of the game is this!! true or not true, this is weak sauce. I'm surprised Stax and Barnes would even sit through that nonsense. does doc need to tell his players not to settle for jumpers. does doc need to tell pro athletes not to jog back on defense. does doc need to tell you not to be lazy in defensive rotations. I didn't see poor coaching on this team, I saw players that lacked heart. I saw lack of hustle. I saw lack of urgency. doc probably wishes he had jj redick.

These quotes aren't going to play well but it's interesting to get his side of the story. Everything he said makes sense even though you'd like to hear him take more responsibility for what happened.

The guy that cheated on his coach's daughter with a stripper

ah man....brutal

Lol, I forgot he cheated on Doc's daughter. That must have been so awkward. I'm sure there is still major beef between them about that, a father does not just get over someone treating his daughter that way.

Im sure Doc has his fair share to do with thd meltdown but PG needs to take some ownership for his performance.

Feels like he took the phrase "Show, don't tell" and flipped it on its head.

Now, if he goes trashmode again in the playoffswith Doc out of the picture, he'll get roasted even worse than before.
