CP3 has been showing why hes a top 3 PG of alltime

[PickernRoller]

They wouldn't have even made the Finals. If they did, the Heat would've curb stomped them and Brick would've faked an injury and retired.

I don't think your boy would have minded skipping another year without a ring. After all he has 6 Final loses to show for his patience. What's a 7 of all things? Deep down you know this...

So far CP3 has never delivered in the playoffs when it mattered most. He's screwed up with the Clippes and he's screwed up with the Rockets. Unless he prooves everybody wrong he will go down as a great point guard but not as a winner.

You don't have to be a winner.

Tony Parker was a winner. Chauncey Billups was a winner. Nobody even ranks them at all.

You can lose your entire career and still be better than a championship player.

Chris is better than all these other point guards.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Performance-wise...he is.

Tons of point guards have won more than him, but how many have actually been better basketball players? Maybe 2 or 3.

Magic or Oscar but who else? 3? Unless u consider Jerry West a PG then i cant see anyone else over him

[Young X]

Honestly? Maybe Stephen.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Honestly? Maybe Stephen.

cmon cuh.......nikkas Nash level defensively. Hes been a disaster on that series on that end and in ALOT of playoff series. Draymond damn near been the best Warrior for most of their series pre KD and even last year and now Draymond been better..........Steph got no case against CP

Your boy is one Shaq and one Gasol away from being a glorified Jerry Stackhouse, little girl. Let that sink in.

For his career Paul has averaged 21/8.5 in the playoffs with a TS of 58%. He scores more points than the regular season with the same efficiency, just not as many assists.

He hasn't been one of those guys who fall off in the playoffs.

The biggest knock on him for me is being injury prone, which bit him in the ass last year against GS.

I would definitely say he is top 5 all time. Top 3 maybe.

[tpols]

Magic
Chef
Kidd
Isiaih
Big O
Stockton
Frazier
Cousy
Nash
Payton
Parker

And probably some more >

Saying Chris Paul is top 3 PG would be like saying Tmac was top 3 at his....dumb.

[FKAri]

Oscar/Magic/Steph

Then you can think about CP3 along with Zeke, Payton, Stockton, Kidd, and Nash.

This is less so at PG than any other position. The job of a traditional alpha point guard (which Paul is) is not just to produce numbers and stats, but to lead. To be the leader his team. And this is where Paul has always fallen short.

no context always matters. The Clippers were pretty talented but never really championship level and horrendously unlucky with injuries(tbf some of that is on cp3 himself). The other thing is not that many pgs have lead their teams to titles.

LMFAO...to actually believe Tony Parker is a better player than Chris Paul...wow. Lots of guys that are clearly not over him, but Parker is laughable. I really hope you are trolling.

He's been great in the playoffs. Aside from injuries, his problem is that his team just lets him down. Just look at those last 3 games in that 2015 series vs the Rockets when Clippers were up 3-1.

In game 5:

Paul - 22pts 10ast .688%ts

Redick, Barnes, Rivers, Crawford combined - 9/41 22%fg 27 points

Game 6:

Paul - 31pts 11ast .650%ts

Redick, Barnes, Rivers, Crawford combined - 14/46 30%fg 38 points

Game 7:

Paul - 26pts 10ast .574%ts

Redick, Barnes, Rivers, Crawford combined - 11/36 31%fg 29 points

As you see, Paul was being a superstar while his help was shooting them out of their 3-1 lead. Dumb ass haters always going on about how he can't get out of the 2nd round...hard to win games when your help completely scrubs it up like this.

I know everyone likes to give everyone shit on here, especially about subjective shit like this, especially when both players have their glaring flaws...but Chris Paul has been a better player than Steph Curry. I never ever thought I would defend CP but well he we are.
