Bruh No. But them "not" winning the championship in that particular year does not take away from the level of competition Chris was facing in the playoffs. Period.

Why is my name being dragged back into this? Oscar isn't in my top 3. I said Magic, Isiah, and Stockton.

Woops, confused you with Mister. That's not a slight, at least not entirely.
My bad.

@Mister since Oscar is in your top 3 can you give me a breakdown of the competition levels back then? I can just imagine you Wikipedia searching right now and pulling up grainy YouTube footage lmao.

Its not like Paul was losing to some juggernauts, he was losing to teams that were getting swept the next round

Swept the next round huh? Now you just lying your *** off that happened once, with LAL against Dallas
No other team paul faced in the playoffs got swept the next round. Every team he played in the playoffs were Championship contending teams. Juggernauts. The fact that you say they aren't proves your being silly now, so i'm out.

All time leader in assist and steals. 2 Finals appearances. What does Paul have on his resume that matches that?

Oooh the personal insults are out again. Always good times when it resorts to that.

You can look at it to 2 ways
1. It was harder to win back in Oscar's day because theres less teams therefore each time is more stacked
2. There are more teams now in the NBA, so teams are less stacked therefore an a great individual players hold more value
I dont know man, I didnt bring up the water down talk either way.....thats your argument
All you can do is judge players how they dominated their era relative to how other great players dominated their respective eras

We give credit for Finals appearances now?
OK,
Stockton was a beast, he's a legend.
It's just comical to me when people will bash someone for being a "perennial loser" and then have someone who's never won a Championship in their Top 3.
Also, Paul is 30, Stockton's career is over.
Let's let dude finish his career before we start making comparisons.

You CANNOT analyze sports this way anymore. If you must, pick up the BOOK OF RECORDS!!!!!!!!
Stockton had Malone. CP started his early years on a rebuild franchise. But now CP has BLAKE and a bunch of talents year in and year out to help lessen the 'burden'.
STILL, this is why STOCKTON owns them all.

Finals appearances, Conference finals appearances, all that doesn't mean ****. If you're going to count winning, then count winning fully.
You can't give credit for that, then shoot down someone for not making it past the 2nd round. That doesn't make sense.

Your last sentence I've said in this thread repetedly. Tell that to the CP3 fan boys who want to crown him king now. An yes making it to the Finals > 2nd round exits no matter how you slice it.

Youre right
My bad the Grizzles got swept in the conference Finals
I thought Chris Paul lost to the Grizzles in the 2nd round but no he lost in the 1st round

Now it's "wait until his career is over before we make comparisons" when just a few hours ago it was "Chris Paul is top 3 all-time."

I don't think anyone has said CP3 is the GOAT PG, tho.
I haven't been in here much lately, so it's possible I missed it.
Idk man, a Finals appareance isn't much different than a 2nd round exit to me.
Both went home empty handed/disappointed at the end of the day.
These are just false benchmarks that the media creates and the casual fan regurgitates.

If as a fan, you are given a choice of having your team lose in 1st round or the Conference Finals
Im pretty sure most rational and logic fans would pick the Conference Finals
So yeah.....it matters
