Chris Paul flips out as DeAndre Jordan doesn't shoot (Video)



Los Angeles Clippers guard Chris Paul flipped out on teammate DeAndre Jordan for failing to take a putback shot at the end of regulation of Wednesday night's game against Portland.

In the final seconds of regulation with the game tied at 87-87, CP3 missed a jumper just before the shot clock expired. The ball landed in the hand of Jordan with 0.7 seconds left on the game clock, but Jordan held the ball instead, apparently confusing the 24-second clock for the game clock. Given that a putback shot could have been enough to win the game, Paul lost it.

Here's a close-up of Paul, who seemed to be using a few inappropriate words to express his feelings:



As luck would have it, the Trail Blazers beat the Clippers in overtime 98-93.

CP3 seems to have some frustration or anger with his teammates lately. Earlier this week, Glen Davis dropped a silly videobomb on Paul that he didn't care for, and now this. Hopefully Paul can get things worked out before the playoffs. They get on the same page if they're going to make a run.
