"Should've passed to the system": Paul George and Clippers get mocked online after 6th straight loss ends with a wedgie

Paul George of the LA Clippers

Paul George and the LA Clippers got mocked by fans on social media after losing their sixth straight game on Tuesday night against the Denver Nuggets.

George had a great game to lead the Clippers in scoring, but his game-tying shot was an all-time brick. The game was also a group-stage game in the 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament.

The Clippers were down 111-108 with less than 10 seconds left. George received the ball, as he had the hot hand all game long. He was being defended by Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, who was all over him during the possession.

George had no other choice but to take the 3-point shot over Caldwell-Pope's defense. The ball ended up getting stuck on the rim or what's called a wedgie. It was a futile attempt that ruined PG13's great performance.

The loss also sent the Clippers to their sixth straight loss, and they're now 0-5 with James Harden in the lineup.

Here's a video of George's wedgie:

NBA fans roasted the LA Clippers for failing to end their losing streak and Paul George for ending a great performance with a brick.

One fan also had to take a shot at James Harden, who had 21 points and four rebounds on Tuesday night.

"Should've passed to the system," the fan wrote.

This fan brought back Paul George's nickname in the NBA bubble:

"Wayoff P."

One fan decided to look on the bright side:

"He was close though. At least not an air ball."

One LA Lakers fan is celebrating the Clippers' misery:

"Clippers 0-6 with Harden and now Westbrook getting benched at the end of games. Lakers really run LA."

A loyal Clippers fan blamed Ty Lue and not Paul George:

"Paul George finna be get slandered for a wedgie shot after dropping 35 points and carrying the entire game because his coach is dumb."
