I'm just curious as to how y'all can say CP3 is regressing? Dude is averaging 18ppg 10apg & 5rpg 2spg and 2topg on almost 50% 40% 90% on a 21 win team.

I swear...popular opinion and message boards hypnotizes you dudes minds.

I'm not even a per guy but he's 2nd behind Steph curry in per, and somehow he's not good anymore? Smh

When you hit a certain age you automatically decline

NT knowledge
 
I don't care about stats. He clearly is another player in the playoffs.

Huh? Let me guess..."cuz he hasn't been out the 2nd round".

How many Cp3 playoff series have you watched and saw him underperform? Ill wait.

I swear I'm tired of this argument. Comes up every 4days in here, with the same media driven 2nd round/conference finals BS.
 
Chris Paul was good in 2009, now he's washed up

It all comes down to this would you want him taking the last shot of a game or even the ball in his hands? No you don't
 
An NBA game is for the most part a finely tuned entertainment spectacle in which arena operators and TV producers know the general form of what they'll be presenting to fans. Sometimes, though, a single thing goes terribly wrong and causes an unfortunate problem that throws off the whole operation. It could be a leak in the roof, a broken shot clock, or even a faulty air conditioner. Such bad fortune could strike at any time to puncture the NBA's shield of professionalism.

Monday's game between the host Houston Rockets and visiting Washington Wizards featured an especially odd delay. Just 48 seconds into the game, referees found that the rim at one end of the floor was bent. Dwight Howard tried to move it back into place by hanging on the rim, but he had little luck despite several tries. Arena operators eventually had to bring out a brand new basket stanchion as a replacement.


The delay took 35 minutes in all, enough time to turn a normal 7 p.m. start into one of the night's late-running games. The Rockets broadcast on Root Sports ended up airing part of a team news magazine to pass the time. Fans in the arena had to be entertained by mascot Clutch (via SB Nation):

It's not clear what specifically happened to bend the rim. However, Grantland's Zach Lowe tweeted that another player noticed a problem with a rim before a game earlier this season:


In DAL@WAS earlier this year, Dirk alerted Wiz 1 rim might be a tad off. Why? He was missing too many warmup Js. They checked, he was right

Whatever the cause, the Wizards didn't seem especially hurt by the hassle of an unforeseen delay on the road. Washington went on to win 104-103, withstanding a fourth-quarter Houston comeback for their third-straight victory.

Did you read some of the comments? :rollin :rollin

Please take a moment to admire the great LeBron for the special talent he is. It never gets old looking at the King's history. So many accomplishments Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan will never achieve:

1.Only player in NBA history to quit because of Air Conditioner.
2.Quit on his team the year after he promises a championship.
3.Dunked on by a high school kid then confiscates the tape.
4.Bail on the dunk contest 9 times.
5.Only able to win a ring with 2 superstars.
6.Play on same team as his moms boyfriend.
7.Average 1.8 pts in the 4th quarter of NBA finals.
8.Lose not 1, not 2, but 3 times in the Finals.

Things people come up with :lol
