“No beef with you”, “He should get zero boos”- NBA Fans Clarify Intentions as Paul George Worries About Philadelphia Crowd’s Reception Ahead of Return

NBA fans voiced online that Boston Celtics forward Paul George should not receive boos when he returns to face the Philadelphia 76ers. George, who was traded this past summer, expressed uncertainty regarding how the Philadelphia crowd would welcome him back. Several supporters posted that they harbor no ill will toward the veteran forward, with some even arguing he deserves a positive reception for his role in the moves that followed his departure.

George spent two seasons with the 76ers after signing a four-year, $212 million deal in 2024, but injuries limited him to 78 games. The forward stated he plans to treat the matchup like a regular game. Through nine games with the Celtics this season, George is averaging 20.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4.1 assists.
