CP is going to Lakers he showed how far he can go with young goons... Give him healthy LBJ and AD and they win it next year
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. An evil soul producing holy witness is like a villain with a smiling cheek. A goodly apple rotten at the heart. Lebron is the devil and Lakers is the Hell. The false king wishes to corrupt pure apostle Paul. With promises of tainted gold and free tickets to Space Jam 2.
Chris Paul lengthened his career with going vegan or whatever the hell he did after being traded, but its clear as day that he's gonna decline significantly any minute now, it could very well be next season. He can trick someone in the offseason that he'll be worth $100 mil over three years, but I think you'd be lucky to get one good year out of that.
Nah he did it before he was traded. It didn't take the trade for it to happen. clear as day? He's coming off yet another all star, all nba season (2nd team this time), and going all the way to the nba finals. The dropoff doesnt work that way. funny how people have been waiting for this to happen for the longest and the opposite happens. People really don't understand how high iq skill players age. Especially being a gym rat. it really isn't that difficult but I guess that's what folks who think you just need to be fast think. This is where significant differences in IQ come into play, where we've seen a lot of cf's lack
I've been riding with CP3 ever since he left the Rockets since his success has been karma and proven just how pathetic Tilman is. But if he goes to the Lakers to chase, I'd wish for nothing more than for the Lakers to crash and burn yet again.
Athleticism doesn't fade that quickly I agree, but I'm talking about all those injuries piling up. This was an outlier season where he DIDN'T get significantly injured at some point. Going vegan might have helped him, or maybe last season's lockout + early first round exit in the bubble helped him with less mileage. If he truly boosted his recovery with his diet change then maybe that's not a big issue, but if he didn't then its likely gonna screw him in the next three years for sure.
so what about the previous season when he was also fine. Another outlier huh. Your op said any minute now as in it'll happen immediately. Now you're talking the next 3 years He'll probably retire at the end of the next 3-4 years. he'll be 40. surprise
Lockout (whoops, lockDOWN) and shortened season. Like I said, it could be his recovery actually got boosted with his regimen change, or we will see the same old **** affect him like it has all throughout his career (on an even more aged body) when we get another full season back. And like you said... he's OLD. Lmao. Idk why we're all arguing when the things I'm saying are of no surprise for a 37+ year old. Anyways. Chris needs to go ring chase. Suns aren't coming back to the finals unless they face injured teams again.
The pause didn't matter. He wasn't dealing with anything prior. it's just that continuing lazy out for those still waiting for him to fall off. but nah he makes all nba 2nd team and goes all the way to the nba finals when you act like hes just going to fall off 3 months from now, after everything he just did yet again 2 years from over half of cf's trying to say he's done, yeah that's why were arguing.
For me it comes down to how he chooses to do this. If he's going to be leaving Phoenix completely screwed, with him earning like 30+ mil again, I really don't know how someone would want him to succeed. He's NOT worth that much. Is he going to be willing to really turn into a role player or is he still going to be manning the ball all the time. If I'm the Lakers, I don't chase after CP unless he's ready to start making a sacrifice.
