Early in the second quarter, a struggling George had committed two careless turnovers in less than a minute. The second mishap was a half-court pass to Harrell, who was near the paint but surrounded by Murray and Michael Porter Jr.

Murray picked off the pass. Seconds later, the Clippers called a timeout.

Harrell approached his teammate about the risky pass, with George not taking responsibility and arguing the pass could have been caught had Harrell made the right play, sources said.

This set off the NBA Sixth Man of the Year.

Harrell responded with something along the lines of, “You’re always right. Nobody can tell you nothing,” and expletives were uttered from both players, sources said. George eventually toned down his rhetoric, but a heated Harrell wasn’t having it. Teammates began clapping on the sideline, in part to disguise what was going on and in an attempt to defuse the situation.

The Clippers were not on the same page off the court either. After the Game 7 loss, George said, “I think internally, we always felt this was not a championship or bust year for us.”

George was the only player to convey that thought. Rivers and the players acknowledged the goal was to win a championship this year.

Breh's, is this guy the biggest loser in the NBA?

It's become crystal clear now. Dude is not about that life. Flying under the radar with no pressure or expectations on a great defensive team that was able to take advantage of Miami's biggest weakness 7 years ago fooled us into thinking he was something that he is not. He's definitely not a 1 and doesn't even look like a 2 on a chip team. Now he can do his thing and get you through a regular season but when it's money time you can't count on him to deliver AND he appears to lack self-awareness and accountability. Oh yeah and he stays getting hurt too. Pacers, Lakers, and OKC all dodged a bullet. Clippers couldn't even trade dude for anything of value right now.
