Playoff P? That’s what many NBA fans are saying watching Paul George stink it up in the bubble during the Clippers’ first-round matchup with the Dallas Mavericks.
Through four games, the man who once made his name in the postseason is shooting an abysmal 10/47 FGs and has only scored 34 points. He didn’t help his case on Sunday night going 3/14 FGs in a thriller that went into overtime that saw the game come down to a buzzer-beater from the NBA’s current phenom, Luka Doncic.
Twitter is clowning the 6-time NBA All-Star for not living up to his legendary nickname.

Paul George is a 5x all nba, 6x all star, 4x all defensive team and finished 3rd in MVP voting. If he comes off the bench in his PRIME, his career is done 💀💀💀 https://t.co/yhNdHS0pUj

The Paul George pack is loud even 8 hours later, his ex’s husband even called him a “bitch ass” too in the game. Shit is crazy.
