    Thanks for telling I am in denial or don´t have a clue, because IMO he is not a top 10 player in this league, at this point in his career. Look, can I give the ball to him, against a decent PF defensively, no double teams and just dare him to destroy the other guy???
    I don´t think he can, and that is why McHale is clueless. When we play him, we don´t double team him for real, we just close perimeter guys on him, and he knows it, so he still bulldozes weakass T.Jones, or passes to shooters, because or perimeter guys are the worst close out guys in the league.
    No doubt that when in space, he is unstoppable.

    Warriors really slowing it down... don't think its helping them, but so far their defense is still holding the Clippers back.

    Refs call some ticky tacky stuff, but don't T up Paul for holding the ball and complaining to the refs?

    so uhh.. are they playing the Grizzlies again? Because I'm pretty sure it says "warriors" on the jersey.

    Yeah it's like they're playing prevent-offense. Terrible strategy.

    Is it just me or is chris paul looking kinda old?

    This is sad if chris paul is already breaking down in his career.

    Kevin Love defensive metrics this year are all good. I guess he is a good defender.......

    What worries me is it looked like he pulled a hamstring in the 2nd quarter and yeah, he hasn't looked that sharp. But the Warriors are doing a very good job defensively.

    If warriors somehow beat the clippers in the first round, does that mean they'll play San Antonio in the second?

    I just think he's forgotten how to play the game without looking for the foul call to bail him out, or he simply goes in trying to sell the call.

    You see Harden guilty of the same thing... except he usually can make the adjustment to start going in and finishing hard, regardless of foul call or not.

    If Paul doesn't adjust his approach, and he can't make plays regardless of contact, then it will possibly be an age/injury issue.
