Lol I hinted at it before the season when everybody thought Brooklyn was gonna be above average and the buls getting rose back. That would give the east Miami Indiana Brooklyn and the bulls and throw NY in there if you want. But as you can see everybody sucks.

 

[00david00]

I thought the east was going to be entertaining with Knicks/Nets/Bulls all playing well, but no

 

[Arthur Shelby]

Why y'all going in on Felton

Looks like the Krispy Kreme bread pudding Chris Paul's chef made for him years ago.

 

[jjs07]

Chris with 38 on 11-13.

Not that it was ever in doubt, but there is, and always was, a HUGE gap between him and the "2nd Best" PG in the league. That's even with guys like Rondo/Rose healthy. And no...I am not insinuating that Wall is the 2nd best PG in the league right now. Just merely pointing out Paul's dominance. He's a ******g magician out there. So fun to watch.

@DanWoikeSports Since 1985-86, 9 players have scored 38 points or more on 14 FGA or fewer. CP3 did it Saturday w/ less FT attempts than the other 8.

 

[buc em]

I'm expecting an Evan Turner trade soon. 3 points on 1-7 shooting in 21 minutes? Something's gotta be up.

i d like to see wall with a better crew or at least equal to chris pauls. i dont say they are equal players but the gap isnt huge between wall and cp3.cp3 has better shot but he isnt as good defender as wall.they are equal at driving and passing imo.if i rated from 1-10 both of em i d say cp3 is 9 while wall is 8.that isnt a huge gap.

Remember what Chris Paul did with the Hornets (in the West too). Wall is not on that level yet.

I'm a Wizards fan and I have to disagree. CP3 is definitely a better defender than Wall, and he has multiple All-Defensive teams to back it up. He's extremely active in the passing lanes and is an annoying pest of an on-ball defender. Wall has great length (6'9 wingspan) and is a terrific shotblocker, but right now he still needs to work on understanding positioning and staying 100% focused on the defensive end. He definitely has the ability to be an elite defender, but like most young stars it's just a matter of consistent effort.

Unlike what a lot of people think, the biggest gap between CP3 and Wall isn't bball IQ or pure PG ability, it's actually scoring. Paul can get any shot whenever he wants, and he does it with crazy efficiency. Scoring efficiency is the least-developed part of Wall's game, he has a lot of work to do before even coming close to Paul in that regard.

I believe that when we're watching Chris Paul, we are watching one of the 2-3 greatest point guards to ever play. When people say Parker, Westbrook etc are comparable to CP3 it's just like.. stop it. People love to talk about Lebron's dominance, but right now the gap between Paul and the 2nd best PG is bigger than the gap between Lebron and Durant. I don't think it's really possible to play the position any better than Paul does. If not for a certain 6'9 freak of nature, public opinion would probably view Chris Paul as the premier point guard in NBA history.


The only thing about him that rubs me the wrong way is.. why does someone that talented, still feel the need to flop all over the floor like a girl. And the refs continue to give him the calls despite knowing his reputation

i ll cmpletely agree with you cp3 is better on positioning and thats what gives him all the steals he gets but as u said he isnt better than wall , he isnt more athletic and wall is better at defending 1v1 something that makes wall slightly better defender imo.

i also cmpletely agree with you about cp3 being better at scoring but whats makes him better at scoring is that he is a FAR better shooter .

also you think paul is that better from deron ? the difference between deron and cp3 and slighter than durant-lebron , deron has achieved more than cp3 when healthy ( didnt he go to WCF with utah during boozer-deron-kirilenko era in utah where they got eliminated by the lakers ? ) while cp3 has only made it the first round , and from those playoffs that he has participated the best was the one against the lakers when he was on the hornets.and apart from the lakers he got eliminated by grizzlies not any elite west team like spurs or OKC.

deron is imo better overall player than cp3 (not that better though) but because of his injuries lately ppl cant understand that.

also i believe that cp3s hornets team was a better TEAM than these clippers.chandler and david west at least are x10000000000000000 times better than the bums griffin and jordan.maybe they were the most underrated two towers in nba history even

 

[hypebeast5]

Wall reaches to much putting himself outta position and CP reaches as well but he rather just play hard and stay in front of whoever he is guarding

Dude has been balling this season tho

I was wondering about that. Saw his numbers from yesterday and thought he must be sick or have gotten hurt or something.

Lebron James is the best Point Guard in the NBA

 

[jjs07]

Crazy thing about Paul is, if he focused more on scoring, I think he could easily average close to, or over 25ppg. All while shooting over 45% from the floor.

This. 

He'll turn around and put up 11 and 10 next game. While only taking 9 shots or something. 

 

[datznasty]

And then in the playoffs, somebody will put their 2 guard on Cp3 and he's out in the first round again
