Paul George scores 27 points in Game 2 lossJune 10, 2021 | 10:03 PM

Paul George recorded 27 points, 10 rebounds, six assists, two triples and four turnovers across 44 minutes in Thursday's Game 2 loss to Utah. Analysis: George was a bit better than he was in Game 1, but he still wasn't great tonight, finishing 8-of-18 from the floor with a plus/minus rating of minus-12. His defense wasn't really there, as Donovan Mitchell essentially got whatever he wanted, and things simply cannot continue to trend in this direction if the Clippers hope to have any chance of advancing to the Western Conference Finals. They did drop the first two games of their First Round series, though, so we wouldn't count them out just yet.
