Paul George: 3 reasons why ‘Playoff P’ is back

No. 3 reason why Playoff P is back: He’s ignoring the noise
Last year when George was getting heavily criticized, he wasn’t afraid to lash out and fire back at his haters.
While George claimed that he didn’t care about the haters when responding, it appeared that he did because; if he didn’t care, why was he talking about it and responding to them?
This time, PG didn’t even bother thinking about the trolls. He had plenty of opportunities to, as they were all over him already by the end of the first half in Game 1.
He could’ve tried to clap back, but he stayed true to himself, his teammates, and his fans who supported him. It shows that he has matured since last year, where he quite frankly wasn’t the ‘Playoff P’ that he could’ve been at times in the postseason.
George backed himself up with his play on the court, which is the best way to do it.
The entire Clippers roster did. Remember when Montrezl Harrel tried trolling us after Game 2?

Since that tweet, the Clippers responded by winning 4 of 5 to win our series while the Lakers lost 3 of 4 to lose their series.

I like this Clippers team, and I love Playoff P. He’s back, and he’s producing at a high level. He’s well-rounded, he’s a lockdown defender, and he simply doesn’t care what anybody has to say.
