VIDEO: Devin Booker And Paul George Separated In Testy Exchange

During the fourth quarter of an eventual 112-107 Clippers win over the Phoenix Suns, Devin Booker and Paul George got heated. This one got ugly.

Paul George is clearly flustered here, or as the kids like to say, he’s got rabbit ears. PG walked the walk tonight with 39 points on 15-24 shooting, so why is he still riled up?

His postgame interview provided some answers.

“I had a tough year last year … I gotta answer to that,” George said.

Interesting statement from Playoff P when he just blamed Doc Rivers for his struggles by “using him like Ray Allen.” This is what happens when a player of Devin Booker’s mentality notices weakness in an opponent’s confidence — you get disrespected in every way possible.

In this case, Booker didn’t hold back and should now expect a hefty fine.

Unfortunately for George, giving the bully a timeout never stopped anyone from getting bullied again. If Paul George wants to put an end to the shenanigans, he’ll need to quit walking around like a victim.
