    Agree...gotta love the guy in Minnesota.


    BTW, nothing against CP3, but I'm really a fan of this Chris Paul.

    Fans who want CP3 should go to Toyota Center and shout how they want Chris Paul.

    Stop masturbate here.

    Teams just don't win championships nowadays with star PGs. You need a lot more than that. Teams can win with average/above average PGs if you have the personnel that surrounds them, look at Miami. Chris Paul on this team would elevate their chances immediately, this is what people are saying, because this team really only has Harden as a star, however you'll still need more pieces to make it a championship team even with Paul.

    Anyways, it will take a lot of things to happen for Paul to come here.

    What other superstar has he played with?

    David West? Chandler was always hurt.

    How long have you been watching NBA? You say some silly things, like that whole Harden can become Michael Jordan thing. Now Stars are just what...90% media made?

    The media don't give a blank about Tim Duncan, they didn't when he was in his prime. Even now as he's pointing fake guns at people heads I still haven't seen a mention of that outside of the internet. Every NBA fan knows though that he's one of the best that has ever played.

    Chris Paul is the best PG in the NBA. Period. Basketball is a team sport, and when Yao was playing he was still superstar player and 1st-2nd best center in the NBA despite only reaching the 2nd round once.

    It's a team sport. Not everyone is Lebron James and able to carry a mediocre team to the finals.

    Cp3 would be a great 6th man to bring a spark off the bench, exactly what this team needs. If he needs advice on accepting his role, James Harden can give him some.

    Still doesn't explain why he missed the playoffs last season with a pretty stacked Clippers team.

    They made it to the second round and were swept by the Spurs.

    Chris Paul is a difference maker. He turned the Hornets into a playoff team the last 3 of the 4 years he was with them with a pretty crappy roster and the only reason why the Hornets didn't make the playoffs in 2009-2010 was because he tore his meniscus. As soon as Chris was traded to the Clippers, the Hornets stopped making it to the playoffs and the Clippers made their first playoff appearance in 5 years. There are very few players in the NBA that can swing a team from a lottery one to a playoff bound one and Chris Paul is one of those players.

    You're right. I got the Clippers mixed up with some other team.
