would you say blake is as good of a player as amare?Nash played with a hall of fame talent at the time in Amar'e Stoudemire. CP never had that luxury in NOLA
he's been with blake for 3 years now

Whenever I wake up to Chris Paul slander, it's a good morning. He brings nothing to the NBA except efficient statlines and flop highlights. Good riddance.

its sad that these days people care more about stats than championships. winshares are more important than actual wins. anything to give everyone a participation medal and a pat on the back.

I love Nash but that statement isn't something you can honestly quantify to say with such assurance. I believe the development of Amare, the leadership of D'Antoni, and the shooters that were surrounding Nash all played an equal role in the success of the Suns. Without any one of those things, that team would probably not have been as successful.
Again, I love Nash. And I already said that him vs. CP3 can go either way. Not mad at anyone that says Nash. I can see the argument for either side.

it is very rare to find a perfect team with no flaws, you could say they need better _____ for any championship teamno but he's not a slouch either. i can't get on cp for the clippers failures so far. they need better wings. thats whats holding them back.would you say blake is as good of a player as amare?Nash played with a hall of fame talent at the time in Amar'e Stoudemire.

thats what star players are for, they make up for your team's weaknesses. the heat lacked size but lebron's greatness overcame that. not many people considered the mavs a real contender by dirk played out of his mind and carried his team to a championship. if chris paul would have outplayed westbrook last year the clippers would have not lost in the 2nd round
its strange how people will blame guys like kobe, melo, lebron and kd for their teams shortcomings but when it comes to pgs its always "they just were not good enough to win"

But there can only be one winner. And NBA history shows that that one winner doesn't change that often. So for us to consider everyone that doesn't "win" as being AT FAULT, doesn't make much sense honestly. Everytime someone loses, it doesn't mean the loser is AT FAULT. The winner could have just been a better team, something we tend to dismiss in pro sports.
I ask again, IN WHICH SERIES, has a CP3 lead team, lost to an opponent in the playoffs
And who are you referring to as people caring more about stats? Me? Even though I haven't brought up a single statistic in this conversation?

Correct. Star players elevate the play of their teammates, but there is always going to be a limit to that elevation
And I don't blame LeBron, KD or Melo either. Basketball is a TEAM sport. If a team doesn't succeed it is usually because the TEAM isn't good enough. Not being the "star" player isn't a big enough star. I mean I can't even understand why people buy into that logic.

umm most of them?
what are you trying to ask here.
there are a lot of factors that go into winning and losing a series, but if we look at this years playoffs.. if cp and blake play better than the other teams star players they will probably almost always win the series.
if cp and blake would have outplayed kd and westbrook they would have won the series
if harden and dwight would have outplayed dame and LA then they would have won the series
the reason why the clippers will never go far is because their two stars are not better than the other teams two stars

thats exactly my point, cp's limit is way shorter than a guy like lebron or magic or kobe or even kd
if we are talking pgs ill throw westbrook, jason kidd and nash on that list too

@sea manup
We can just end the discussion here because we have different ideas of what it takes a team to be successful.
I believe the entire team performing well, role players included, pushes a team toward victory.
From what I am gathering, you believe it rests on the shoulders of the star players.
I can't agree with that. You are entitled to your thoughts though. Respect

CP3's limit is shorter because his teammates have traditionally been less talented, as a whole.
That is what I have been trying to explain to you.

Chris paul needs teammates that are better than him. If he's the best player on your team the end result speak for itself
