Lakers’ forward Jared Dudley just released his book about his time in the Bubble. The book is titled “Inside the Bubble”, and it gives an insider’s perspective to the Lakers championship playoff run last season.
While the two LA teams did not end up meeting in the playoffs, according to Dudley, the Lakers were ready. The Lakers were all prepared for a ‘Clash of the LA’ all because of a Paul George statement. Apparently, Paul George had made a statement where he puts himself at the same level as Anthony Davis and LBJ, and that’s what offended the Lakers.

A user cued an old Drake tweet and made for a perfect reaction.
“We think it’s disrespectful for Paul George, who hasn’t won, to put himself on the level of Bron and AD. This motivates us. When we see those guys around the compound, we don’t really kick it with them.”

Then since Dudley got offended because PG compared himself to AD, a Twitter user pulled up the playoff record of both the players prior to last year’s playoffs.
Still trying to figure out what the hell Jared Dudley’s point was when Paul George had 74 career playoff games before coming to LA and AD had a whopping

Even the Head Coach of the Los Angeles Clippers, Ty Lou had something to say about the same.
“A book?! Jared Dudley?! … I know I can’t cuss on here so I won’t, but who cares?”

While PG had a very nonchalant reaction to the same, he balled out tonight against the Cavs, going off for 36 points. The Clippers would surely like to give an apt response to these comments in the playoffs this postseason.
