Listen to Clay Travis discuss Paul George’s now infamous postgame press conference calling Damian Lillard’s iconic Game 5 buzzer-beating heave a ‘bad shot’ after the miraculous 37-footer eliminated George’s Oklahoma City Thunder.
Clay says there’s a lot of irony in Paul’s controversial statement, given the fact he said it while sitting on the podium alongside Russell Westbrook, who is fastly becoming known around the NBA as being the poster boy of ‘BAD SHOTS’.
Check out the audio below as Clay wonders what Paul George would of thought about Westbrook’s fourth quarter shot selection that ended up torpedoing OKC's playoff lives.
