Perhaps the player whose reputation took a bigger hit this season was Paul
George, as he was far from his best since the restart of the campaign and his
never-ending struggles in the playoffs showed up in a big way when the Los
Angeles Clippers blew a 3-1 lead in the Western Conference Semifinals.
"也许这个赛季是PG的名声最受打击的一季，从复赛以来他的表现一直都很挣扎，
尤其是在西区半决赛时为甚"
Paul George became infamous around the league for calling himself ‘Playoff P
’ and then being a massive no-show more often than not. He struggled with
his shot, couldn’t stay on the court with foul trouble, and made some
avoidable mistakes down the stretch.
"PG拿不出Playoff-P相符称号的表现，持续挣扎，不论是出手或是犯规麻烦或是接下
来一连串无可避免的错误"
However, ESPN’s Zach Lowe believes that people shouldn’t sleep on Paul
George and predicted that he’ll come back better than ever next season after
his reputation took that major blow:
"“I’m predicting a Paul George vengeance tour next season. The guy was a
top-five MVP finisher last season. He’s gonna come back strong next season,”
Lowe said."
"然而 ESPN记者 Zach Lowe要大家著么快否定PG，PG上一季联盟前五的finisher
，他相信下一季他会复仇且重振他的名誉"
George earned some detractors for his comments dissing the Portland Trail
Blazers and posts on social media claiming that he didn’t care what people
thought about him, as he couldn’t back up the talk in the hardwood and once
again underperformed when it mattered the most despite being fully healthy.
"PG曾在社群软件上和拓荒者有些口水战而饱受评论，但宣称他不在意人们怎么说"
Also, the Clippers gave up a lot of future assets to pair him with Kawhi
Leonard, so he was obviously asked to step up big time and that just didn’t
happen.
"而且，快艇队为了他和可爱放弃了许多球队的资产让他们组队，显然的他被要
求加倍努力却没有达到预期效果"
Then again, Lowe’s got a valid point. We’re talking about one of the best
two-way players in the league and a guy that’s able to make a huge impact
every time he’s out there. Hopefully, he’s right and George will put on a
show next season.
"Lowe有着鲜明的观点: 我们是在讨论联盟中攻守兼备最厉害的人之一，而且他能在场上
做出非常大的影响，希望Lowe是对的而且PG能在下一季找回身手"
短评: 我还是觉得 PG 有点不太靠谱
