Lou Williams was among the players who shouldered the blame for the outcome of the LA Clippers’ series against the Denver Nuggets. He opined that the team had all the necessary pieces to win an NBA ring, but the chemistry wasn’t there. And now, details of an unruly incident have emerged that also point towards the same.
NBA News Update: LA Clippers duo Paul George and Montrezl Harrell have a heated moment
As reported by Yahoo Sports’ Chris Haynes, a heated exchange took place between Paul George and Montrezl Harrell during a timeout in LA Clippers’ Game 2 against the Denver Nuggets.
Haynes outlined that PG13 had committed two costly turnovers early on in the second quarter, with one of them being a risky pass to Harrell which was picked by Jamal Murray. Trezz approached George about that play but the latter was in no mood to take responsibility for the same, instead suggesting that Harrell could’ve caught it. This irritated the NBA Sixth Man of the Year who didn’t hold back.
The report further stated that the commotion between Paul George and Montrezl Harrell eventually died out a few moments later as Doc Rivers started discussing strategies. However, the incident surely has to be considered a red flag.
The LA Clippers didn’t really play together as much during the regular season due to fitness concerns. That came back to haunt them as they could never recover from slumps late on in games against the Denver Nuggets and eventually bowed out of the postseason.
