I dont think anyone can when CP3 constantly calling for picks.

You could say the same thing once Russ gets a running start.

Agreed. I think with the growth he showed last season, the next step for Blake is to become more of a go-to guy in close games down the stretch. With this improved FT shooting and midrange game, I think its going to happen.
That said, I wouldn't be mad if we manage to pick up another a wing who can create his own shot better than the 3s we have now.

Sad, but very true. He just wasn't ever the same once he got to the Nets. In all fairness, his ankles started giving out coincidentally around the same time.

The way CP3 plays will allow him to be an effective PG for a little bit longer

A running start? Im sorry his speed is too much for most PGs....Calling for picks just to get separation aint really battling

So NBA basketball is a 1-on-1 game now? Screens are a part of the game. If you want to "check" your man, then fight over the damn screen.

This is true. But when you see CP3 play now you see the difference...it happens to all players
He is starting to show the signs of aging. Nothing wrong with that.
He's had a few injuries + age + being so small + carrying his teams on his back his whole career has had it's affect. Still can't front on Cliff but he's not what he once was

It's basketball man. You rarely are going to play strictly one on one basketball as a point guard. The name of the NBA game right now is screen and roll. It's not a knock on CP3 because he's an excellent Pick and Roll player.

Yeah you can see CP3 is starting to slow down, he isn't as quick as he once was.

Clipps sale to Balmer official as of today. 
He's been approved by the league.
Legal experts say that Sterling can continue to appeal and sue, but its a done deal.

Exactly. You see a TON of high Screen and Rolls happening more often now than you ever have before. Also, with this motion offence, how the Hell is anyone going to strictly play someone 1-on-1?

Its not about 1 on 1...the point i was getting across was CP3 cant check Westbrook regardless and someone said westbrook cant check CP last i checked Westbrook been cooking all the PGs in the League.

Yea pretty much. Back in the 90's the only team that was using the P&R was Jerry Sloan's Utah Jazz. That was due to Karl Malone being an athletic beast and John Stockton being too slow and not athletic enough to play 1on1.
But now with no hand checking P&R is even more deadlier. It's apart of the game. You'd be a fool not to use it very chance you get
