    Chris Paul is the only player in NBA playoff history to have a 40 points, 10 assists, and 0 turn over game.

    Further more, there have been only 10 games with at least 30 points, 10 assists, and 0 turn over in playoff history.:eek:

    Meant to say that there have been only 10 games with at least 30 points, 8 assists, and 0 turn over in playoff history.

    Only 1 game with 40/10/0.

    Remember when they stuck Harden with a sucky PG who has lots of turnovers and throws up airballs?

    Chris deserves whatever accolades for game 5 that come his way. It was one of the greatest playoff performances in Rocket and NBA history. It was truly remarkable, Mr. Paul, and epic isn't too strong a word, in my opinion.

    And only 1 TO in the last 104 minutes played. And 22 ast in that span.

    Unreal.

    I love how the only loss on that list was against the rockets. Sorry Mr. English.

    Rafer Alston? I'm lost. Hasn't PBev been our main PG since Harden's been here?

    EDIT: OHHH NVM. Linsanity is the answer

    But with 41 points and 10 assists, CP3 usage rate must have been pretty high - how could he have 0 turnovers? I've been reading on Clutchfans for years how high turnovers are to be expected and merely a byproduct of a high usage rate... hmmmm... was that merely a cop out to rationalize a problem situation that folks wanted to deny? lmao!

    Props to CP3 on an excellent performance!

    That's great and all. I still miss Matt Maloney and Rafer Alston. This team would be on another level if those two were playing instead of Paul and Gordon.

    The correct answer is immortal Rocket, Matt Maloney.

    Also joins Michael Jordan as the only 2 players in playoff history with at least 40pts and 10ast in a series clinching game.

    IIRC, he has multiple career games of 20 assists / 0 turnovers
