Fuck Chris Paul

how exactly does chris paul have such impressive control over the basketball? why can't other point guards do what he does?

Gamer moment

Only thing I have against CP3 is his team hopping. I tend to not respect a lack of loyalty, but I cant expect players to give a shit about that.

the "player empowerment" era really slurps a lot of semen. I miss the days when you identified a team with their star guy

only thing i have is the old school dirty shit. has no place in the game.

>SAC: Kings To Interview Mike D’Antoni, Mark Jackson, Others
the anthony would be retarded to take this job

Woah......... maybe he is the GOAT......

just another reason to hate LeDisloyal more

Playoff leaders in net rating. Minimum 80 possessions played.

you could argue kg started it but the timberwolves deserved that disrespect tbf

surely a team with a guy dropping games like that made the playoffs easily? what's their seed?

bro take your pocket protector wearing ass out my house before I give you a wedgie

Any stat that has Giannis is the same universe as Tobias Harris is invalid.

I’m surprised he won more than 20 games with Westbrick

Yeah because the goat debate is decided by graphics

seeing tobi's name at all is all I needed to know

>garbage defense
>couldn't lead "super" team to playoffs
Here is another guy who is 37 years old. inb4 no rings

Does this man say shit like this on purpose to make people mad? If so I respect him

ESPN:
[Player] was the youngest player to score [x]+ points on a road playoff game in the first round as a lower seed against a team with at least 1 all star and a top 70 scorer off the bench who had won 40+ games in the 2 previous seasons since 1979.

>Be the """""MVP"""""
>Can't even win a game in the playoffs
the state of frauds like LeMickey and NoJoker

short limbs make the ball easier to control

what is it with point guards who don't get rings?

Such a niche statistic means nothing to me. That being said, must be Trae

Same thing but PIE, NBA.com's equivalent of PER but way less dumb of a formula.

ok explain trae young

?????
trae young is short? proves my point

superstar PGs can't take over like that. they're not built for it. your team needs a point guard but he can't be the best guy on the team. rondo and jrue holiday probably the best examples in the modern era

All it means is the team is outscoring the other team X amount of points when that player is on the floor, but per 100 possessions instead of+/-

he turns the ball over like a fucking lunatic though. cp3 takes care of the rock like no pass first star guard in the league ever has

Embleed sisters, Jokic is still ahead of us...

When the defence is at it's best it's hard for a short guy to get a bucket

unironically very high basketball IQ.
is point guard the position with 0 rings among top players who don't have one? harden westbrook stockton iverson nash come to mind.

some people have better hand eye coordination than others. Trae young also grew up watching steph so he practicing memechucking. I know i grew up watching iverson so all i did was practice crossovers

Trae is a talented retard though. Maybe he’ll get better with age but as of now his basketball IQ is in the double digits.

What the FUCK is this cope

CuckPiss3 has thrown away whole rings with his turnovers.

memechucking doesn't get you turnovers tho just inefficient games

interesting thing I think about the ringless pg star situation is that the star pgs who do have rings like IT and chauncey (same team, weird) might've been the best players on their team but they definitely had guys they could lean on. what's weird is that a guy like stockton who had an all time great weapon like nash, cp3 has never had - I mean there's not too many malones out there - never got one

There are tons of players who pass way less than Paul and have more turnovers. The more you pass the more likely you are to turn the ball over so players like Harden, Westbrook, Trae, and Ja just seem like shitters in comparison. I think people really underestimate how impressive it is to be #1 in assists to turnovers. Love him or hate him doing what he does is beyond impressive especially considering how old he is.

Clutch time point leaders in the playoffs. No filters.

we all know he's a choke artist but game to game his ast:tov is all time great

OG was the only Raptor winning them the last game. Everyone else was choking like crazy.

>bums padding while getting swept
woah impressive

Jae Crowder is now 0-14 from beyond the arc in the series against the Pelicans.

Who the hell is this stephen curry niggga.... I just woke up from a coma

salsa

LeBron hitting the salsa in cancun rn

wannabe iverson

Only watched the game for 2 minutes last night but I saw him hit a 3 in the corner you liar.....

Not shocked that he likes cheese pizza

He's a white Iverson with a 3point shot

Had a nightmare about grayson allen

currys handles are no where close to AIs

whats the over/under for minutes before KAT fouls out?

had a wet dream about grayson allen fucking my bitch

The only one with formidable handles than AI are Kyrie but we won't talk about it.

is donovan mitchell really a bad defender or just lazy?

kyrie is actually the true successor to iverson on many levels, including just sheer off-court will and personality

jcraw

foot was on the line so the appropriately the took a point away

he's a bad defender because he's lazy. he's got the tools in weight and length to be a better defender than a nigga like pat bev who can't do anything else

“He doesn’t care about basketball but has GOAT handles/most skilled player ever” is literally the entire narrative energy around Kyrie

what a dumb nigga who puts their foot on the line when theres not even anyone around contesting you

Wait, how many of you faggots are black?

kyrie clearly cares about basketball, that narrative energy is some disingenuous shit because he had the audacity to care about other shit too in a controversial manner. nobody accuses lebron of not caring about basketball when he does activism that's within socially acceptable lines

i say nigga and im white

My Greek friend says that Olympiacos would beat most of the teams in the playoffs except the Warriors, Suns and maybe Nets. Is he right?

Mostly wiggers

I'm a light-skinned mutt creature that had a jewfro in high school but now I have long, flowing hair and idk what really changed in my hair composition to make that happen. my dad was fro'd up
but I was kinda black before now I'm not really
I still say nigga when the song says it tho

we all came from africa

nope, i dont listen to rap music or anything. im just a regular white person who happens to say the word nigga

maybe your black ass did I'm hyperborean

No
