Paul George on the NBA’s handling of Robert Sarver’s punishment: “Not as well as they could. I think it should have been from jump that it’s more than a year suspension. … I think it was just a slap on the wrist initially. The league should have come down for sure much harder.” – 4:02 PM

Paul George said there “should be a lot of good night being a Clippers fan” when describing the team’s deep roster. Because of that depth, he said the team could learn from having a “Team USA approach” where players go hard in their minutes. – 3:57 PM

Paul George: “When you look at how close we were 2 years back, the year ‘whi got hurt, how close we were… I didn’t want to give everything or leave anything on the table that I could have done more. So I thought it was very important this summer to keep guys connected.” – 3:56 PM

Paul George mentions that he feels like John Wall will be a huge value in transition, and felt that teams crashed glass so much on last year’s team because there was no threat in transition – 3:50 PM

Paul George says John Wall “is definitely a piece that is needed” to help shoulder the point guard load that was on Reggie Jackson. George says Wall’s ability to run and push pace will keep opposing teams from crashing the glass. – 3:50 PM

Norm Powell wants to come into camp and prove that he’s a starting two guard but is ready to help the Clippers in any way. He says he and Luke Kennard will probably be looking at the most open 3-point shots of their careers playing alongside Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and Co. – 3:44 PM
“I’ve had conversations with him before about how he admired my game, who I was as an individual. I spoke to him at the All-Star Game. We connected, took pictures. I asked him about what he is into right now or how he spends his time. But you know, as time goes on, I feel like that relationship will get stronger. And yeah, I mean, it’s an honor for him to tell me that. He’s one of the guys I looked up to or watched highlights of growing up, trying to pattern my game after him, how he uses the ball to manipulate the fingers, and just his drive to win. He won in the ABA, and he had that monkey on his back throughout the NBA, and he was able to win. I just look at people’s stories like that and try to interpret it into my own life. Hopefully the relationship can build.” -via TalkBasket / September 27, 2022
