Nah just playing. This is why CP3 and Harden have each other. Next time Harden has a bad game, CP3 will redeem himself. Remember last season what happened when our primary playmaker had the worst game of his life? We lost. Now we can win these games.
It's one thing to have a bad game. It's another to bring us down to the point where we nearly lose to the 8 seed at home.
Instead of misrepresenting what I said, why not tell me what Chris Paul did that was anything but trash tonight?
they can win these type of games now that they have each other. great point. harden was good enough for both of them. paul was bad enough for both of them. evened out in the end.
Nobody here is saying he didn't play like trash. But it was one game and we won. I'd rather he play like this against the Wolves than against OKC or the Warriors later.
It's the playoffs. It's going to be rare--as in almost NEVER--when all of your guys have solid games on the same night. It doesn't matter that CP3 had an off night, because Harden was good enough to pick him up. All the matters is that we get a W. That's it. Nothing else is in any way important. If we win by one point on a miracle shot at the buzzer in a game we totally don't deserve to win... it's still a win. Why is it that 50% of ClutchFans is ready to explode because we didn't get a 20-point win in our first playoff game? THE SKY IS FALLING! THE SKY IS FALLING!
I realize this is all in good fun, but if I may be allowed to be a Debbie Downer here, he has struggled to get past his man and then finish all year. Now maybe Harden has got me spoiled in that aspect of the game, but CP3 is a worse finisher than I thought he was. His (lack of) size and its has impact has been more apparent the more I watch him.
Can I say this? Yes, it's just one game. But damn, that was one obscene performance by Chris Paul. I hope he doesn't play that bad again the rest of the postseason.
you mean ONLY playmaker at least 2 PLAYMAKERS are needed to go far in the playoffs.. ask Lebron, KD, GSW too bad Morey only found this out after the 5th year of harden in a Rockets uni
