Re: There are people on ISH who actually think Chris Paul is top 5 PG all time
PG is historically a relatively weak position. So not that crazy.

It's not that crazy to be honest. You have Magic the undisputed 1.
Oscar at 2.
Isiah at 3.
After that? No point guard has won enough or played at a high enough level while winning to be sure fire top 5. I wouldnt be comfortable ranking anyone after those guys.

Maybe only stat geeks who only pay attention to box scores and advanced stats. They don't care about playoff success and winning.

True, but Kidd and Stockton are still higher than Paul and would be considered top 5 before he would at this point. At least those players went to the Finals and one won it, although at the end of his career.

Neither have the surefire stats or accolades or rings to be ranked over any great point guard in my opinion. Not just talking about CP3. I could mix and match after the top 3.

I still think he's easily one of the best ever. The Clippers losing this series didn't change my opinion of him at all really.
Put him in the east where he can face weak competition year after year and he'd go down as an all time great.

Re: There are people on ISH who actually think Chris Paul is top 5 PG all time
I'd say Magic, Oscar, Isiah, and Stockton are all undoubtedly top 5, but the fifth spot can honestly go to a number of players, ranging from Cousy, Frazier, Kidd, Payton, Nash, CP3 etc.

Chris Paul's stats are always good, but they don't reflect his choke jobs in the post season.
Perfect example was game 6 against Houston. 31/11/7. What a game! But he was nowhere to be found as his team choked away a 19 point lead in an closeout game.
Great second tier star, but he's clearly not in the conversation of best players of his generation (Kobe, Lebron, Wade, KG, etc).

Re: There are people on ISH who actually think Chris Paul is top 5 PG all time
They are as silly as those who think Kobe is a great player.
Anyway, Nash >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CP3.
CP3 is still in the top 20 GOAT PGs though, don't hate.
