The Los Angeles Clippers are 0-2 with James Harden in the lineup, but Paul George isn’t worried.
The Clippers have lost to the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets.
“I’m not worried about this,” George said. “Of course, we wanna win these games. These are games we feel we should win. But it’s early in the season. We got too much star power here, we got too many great players here for it not to work, for us to not figure it out.”
