The Los Angeles Clippers hit the ground running with a double-digit win over the new-look Portland Trail Blazers.
And while they should’ve never had any sort of trouble getting past a rebuilding team, it’s always nice to get started with a big win.
Following the game, Clippers star Paul George raved about how easy it is for him to play when he’s next to two stars like Russell Westbrook and Kawhi Leonard (via Bally Sports West).

George states that they make it easy for him because everybody’s always looking to share the basketball and take pressure off each other, giving them credit for his solid performance.
Notably, George dominated on both ends of the floor with 27 points, six rebounds, and three assists, all while Russell Westbrook chimed in with 11 points, five rebounds, and 13 assists, and Kawhi Leonard managed to get 23 points with six rebounds and five dimes.
Everybody’s getting touches in Tyronn Lue’s offense, and that makes it easier for all players to get into a rhythm and get involved.
The Clippers’ depth and Big 3 make them one of the most unstoppable teams in the league when they’re at full strength, as it’s pretty much impossible to lock up Leonard, George, and Westbrook on the same night.
Then again, some fans continue to be skeptical about their ability to stay on the court together, and it’s hard to blame them at this point.
Over the years, Leonard and George have missed plenty of time in the playoffs, including last season.
