Paul George is one of the NBA’s most polarizing players. He’s easily one of the most talked about players, and even though he’s a bonafide All-Star year in and year out, he gets a lotta crap from fans. Especially online. His teammate DeMarcus Cousins is not about the Paul George Hate. After George’s epic playoff night, Boogie took to the mic to defend PG.
“I don’t know where this trolling bull[expletive] comes from,” he said. “The internet controls the narrative about these players, it’s become foolish, man. I don’t understand the slander. That’s one of the most special players to ever lace his shoes up. Give this dude his flowers, man.”

There’s no doubt Paul George is one of the best two-way players in the game, but when you give yourself a nickname like Playoff P, you’re opening yourself up to criticism.
He also makes a ton of money, and without a ring, it feels like his resume is missing something.
Plus he does choke from time to time. That’s plenty of reasons for the internet to go at him.
