There are so many things that stands out about Cp3... but the thing that always impresses me is his quick thinking IQ. I'd put him up against any player in the last 20 years in terms of quick thinking/right decisions kind of play making
Harden stats for 2021 nba playoffs 67% true shooting percentage 5th in box plus minus 3rd in win shares per 48 and this is harden playing on one leg still doing better than steph curry best playoff seasons. I wonder if Ben Taylor will use the injury excuse for harden this year like he convientley does for steph curry every post season to justify ranking him number 1.
It's so true.. MDA, Harden, CP3.. stats dont matter now. There is only one thing left. CP3 about to get his.. It could have been all three.
Yo, it still amazes me that CP3 is still the only one on the court that knows he's in the penalty. With all these flopping as floppers in the league, CP3 is the only one on earth that uses the flop to get 2 free throws 40 feet from his goal.
i mean it’s hard to see the Suns losing to another injured team…. But if Bucks m… or Hawks… are duly healthy, don’t count your chickens yet. I’d still like the Suns… but it’s hard to say for sure since they haven’t faced a team at full strength so who knows….
stats will always matter Stats are pretty much the only thing that isn’t predetermined in the nba. All the awards, all star selections are pretty much pre determined the first week of the season. if the league is hellbent on screwing your team in the playoffs what really can you do. The stats are only thing that the nba doesn’t control. The league has been unsuccessful at trying to nerf hardens game over the years and will try again this offseason. The league does not want harden to reach 30k points If harden is remembered as an all time box score stat stuffer with elite efficiency WITHOUT a ring then so be it. Harden barring injury will finish top 15 all time in vorp/ win shares( basically becoming the best guard of his era besides cp3). Top 10 in career bpm and win shares per 48 along with the other legends of the game. and might even finish 2nd all time in 3 pointers made. Who knows
They beat a team missing more than half their starters Suns fans, bucks fans and the tilman diehard fans like op whove been moaning and crying for a whole season might be the only fanbases left that still give a **** about these asterick playoffs. Sorry for the reality check boys! Its draft season
People who have always hated on CP3 will say and do anything to defend their wrong beliefs. He's a winner, he's always won. People tried to use that"great young supporting cast" BS in OKC. He was only held back by mediocre supporting casts until he got here. Anybody that doesn't realize CP3 is a top 25 player of all time doesnt know what winning basketball is. Sadly our owner us one of them, and our star preferred comfort over winning.
So excited to see another former Rockets legend getting ready to receive his ring before entering the HOF. But it’s definitely more joyful with all the wonderful tears from the Harden fanboys here.
cp3 has not always won. harden has won more than cp3 if you are just going off win percentage. cp3 never even made a conference finals till he got with the rockets at age 33.
i feel sorry for that 2nd pick we will draft. Hopefully he comes out and scores 37 and 45 in back to back games or something similar to get heat off his back. I feel like rockets fans are gonna crap on this kid no matter what he does
LMFAO at Beverley. Just got up to the part of the game where he couldn't take getting his ass handed to him any longer and did the biggest dog act I've seen in the league in a while. Hahahahah watching it over and over again CP3 isn't even concerned with players with the skillset of Beverley. He doesn't even need to say a single word to show his dominance. God it's beautiful to watch this clown act the way he does and then acts like a 13 year old kid does when the next door neighbour keeps bullying him. Byebye Patricia. Can the least respected player in the league, somehow become even less respected?
I agree with you. Unrelated to your post but what @HP3 has said in some of his posts in this thread also is true about Paul not having great or even good games to his standard. And I think a lot of the previous few games where he's been below his best has to do with the fact he wasn't playing with the decision making he typically does.
