Choke-P is made of glass, but Media will still protect his image. Meanwhile, when Blake gets injured, the narrative is that it's because he's "soft" and he needs to get traded.

One of Blake or CP3 is bound to get injured every year, but isn't it good that they got it out the way before the playoffs this time? You guys still have a shot to make it to the WCF if the seeding is right.

Well, outside the golden showers, i don't see any aura of invincibility in the Spurs & Rockets current level of play, so the Clippers fans & team self confidence is quite warranted in this case.

Blake gets injured: "He's soft! He's unreliable! Trade him for Melo! Trade him for Kevin Love!"

Choke-P gets injured: :cry "Paul deserves better! He's just unluckier than all other superstars." :cry

It's honestly disgusting how this guy gets coddled no matter what. I'm not saying he should be criticized for getting injured or anything, but neither should Blake and it still happens. CP0 has done nothing to deserve the special treatment and double standards he gets over the rest of the team.

Don't always agree with ya but valid points except ...
I never hear how Blake has never made the WCF only Paul ...I know he is younger ...but still.
Choke's teammates always get the blame when his teams bow out in the first or second round, especially Blake.

The best example of this is probably the Houston series a couple years ago. Somehow the narrative ended up being that the collapse was mostly Blake's fault. Never mind the fact that they were triple-teaming him in that dreadful fourth quarter of Game 6 and nobody could take advantage. Or that until he made a meaningless garbage-time three at the end, Choke was 1-6 with zero assists in that fourth quarter. Or that Blake won a game in Houston as the alpha, something Choke wasn't able to do. Or that Choke came out timid and scared to shoot until garbage time in Game 7 even though Terry and Prigioni were guarding him. Nope - Paul's protected, so it's never his fault in Media's eyes when he loses.

Or take the backdoor sweep against Memphis in 2013. The narrative for that one was that we lost because Blake was "soft" and "scared of ZBo." Never mind the fact that he was playing with a high ankle sprain for much of that series because our retard of a coach was running intense full-contact practices between playoff games. Or that Choke disappeared in Game 3 and shat the bed in the fourth quarter of Game 4. Again, Choke's protected, so Blake ended up playing the role of the scapegoat.

So I would say we hear an awful lot about Blake not getting it done in the playoffs, even when it's not his fault. Meanwhile, he gets no credit when he does step up in the playoffs - such as the aforementioned win in Houston, or the triple-double he put up in Game 7 against the Spurs that same year, or the 2012 Spurs series where he was clearly our best player and got no help from CP0, or the 2014 Warriors series where he averaged more points on a higher shooting percentage than CP0 and won in spite of CP0 getting worked and dominated by Curry. That never gets mentioned because it contradicts Media's narrative. They'd rather push fake news about how CP0's a monster in the clutch and he's literally never had any help.

And don't forget, Choke-P has failed without Blake. Blake has never really had the opportunity yet to succeed or fail without Choke-P.

Oh and you do the same shit with Pau Kobe...
It's funny you mention that, because the same dynamic is at play here. Choke-P is Kobe and Blake is MVPau.

Blake when has NEVER been outplayed H2H when he has been healthy meanwhile Choke-P even when he was HEALTHY has been outplayed by lesser players.

'08-'09 was Choke-P's PEAK season & he got destroyed by Billups.:lol

Everyone knows the Rockets, as constructed are a regular season team and the Clippers have San Antonio's number.

Pau (historically clowned by Deandre and Griffin, mind you) replacing Duncan is also the nail in the coffin.

He's not a choker, he's a pass-first point guard. That hasn't worked in the playoffs for 30 years and even then, the guy was 6'9 and averaging 24ppg.

I don't care what CN say; Chris Paul is still clearly the Clippers MVP :lol

They really have no option but to pay him in the summer..And if they decide to shake it up after another playoffs disappointment, either Blake or Deandre should be traded or let walk...

Blake has been pretty good since returning, tbh..he was a monster, last night..

The problem is that Raymond Felton is their only other PG(pretty good backup, but shouldn't be starting)..Rivers and Crawford are black holes, and that's who they have running their offense for most of the game..

Redick's decline looks like it's beginning, too..also, they don't have any 2-way players outside of Chris Paul..

CP3's impact is undeniable. It shows you just how good he is that without him and even Blake playing well they are such a limited team on both ends.

With him? He legit scares the Spurs. Huge impact on both ends. I'm pretty sure CP3's on/off is again blowing away most everyone.

When Blake is out the Clippers have to start ex-player Paul Pierce or some D-Leaguer insted of him and CPAlpha still wins them games at a better ratio than with Griffin, tbh.

Clipper Nation

02-07-2017, 06:38 PM

Choke Paul's impact is overrated because Coach Doc has no offensive gameplan besides "do whatever you want, CP0" and GM Doc has loaded this roster with scrubs and old fossils. Also, DJ has quietly become one of the laziest and softest players in the league. The guy's getting punked by the likes of Mozgov, JaVale McGee and Salah Mejri on the regular. He thinks he's a star who can coast now since he finally got a pity All-Star nod.

We should never lose when Blake puts up a triple-double and Austin actually looks like an NBA player for once. The fact that those happened last night and we still lost by 9 isn't because of Choke Paul - it's a testament to Doc Rivers' failure on every level as GM and coach.
