CP3 should shut his mouth. Coming from a guy who get's more than 80% of his shots by using his off arm to push defenders off to get open, I take absolutely no credence in his opinion.
Actually there was more contact by Barnes on Parker in that final play before the inbounds than when Parker grabbed Paul in the play before leading to a free throw and the ball.

CP3 is and has always been a whining little . He's a great player, but when things don't go his way, rest assured he'll find something to whine about. He certainly downplayed that last ass-whupping that Parker and the Spurs put on him in L.A.
as if the continuation led to their loss anyway.
Let's look at the facts:
Duncan was absolutely fouled on the play, and would've gotten 2 FTAs if they called that a travel (and it was only maybe a travel because he was fouled, had he not been fouled, shot goes in anyway with no FTAs, Spurs up 1 anyway)
Duncan was 10/10 at the line that night
Spurs won by 2 points
Conclusion: Duncan likely would've hit both free throws to put the Spurs up 1, in which case they would've won anyway. Chris Paul is crying over something that didn't even effect the outcome of the game, unless he was desperately hoping a 10/10 FT shooter, first ballot HOFer shooting the best FT% of his career was suddenly going to choke on the last free throw.![]()
Me on CP's last shot of the game. "He flopped. I can say that, right? He flopped. I just looked at the film. He flopped. He made a pretty good flop, though. He has to do better. I'm not trying to take anything away from him. It was a pretty good flop. That's why he's one of the best floppers to ever flop. But, he flopped."

CP3 needs to stop whining and stop being deathly afraid of the Spurs, tbh.... this is why an actual coach is needed and not a doormat for the players, you think Stan Van Gundy or Jerry Sloan would accept the team having a good cry about refs in the locker room after a big loss?
I thought the Clips got away with a ton of stuff, and CP needs to stop traveling and palming himself before he mouths off about Timmy's moves.
The game started off with bull in favor of CP3 and the Clippers, Leonard deserved a trip to the line here:
Great stuff man
Ouch, it hurts when I laugh! #&%ing great!![]()
You never hear any players say "he flopped" in regards to CP after games do you?
If only his PF was any good...
Your team might have a shot in the west. Oh well maybe he can get you a spot on a Kia commercial
Great screen by Kawhi on Jordan.
Blake was playing really well until the last few games, tbh... I think he's dealing with an off-the-court issue right now, since he had to leave Staples early a couple games ago for "personal reasons"...
CP3 is king of the floppers, as evidenced by that last play of the game. He's wasn't concerned about actually trying to make the game-tying shot, he was more concerned about trying to bait the officials into making a call. Besides that, he's notorious for palming the ball. In the future, Paul should be mindful of the old saying, "people who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones".
One thing's for sure. This will be another year that Paul won't get to pop a bottle of champagne after the NBA finals. Looking for help from the refs on the final play of the game is par for his course.
I hate when players throw the "not making an excuse here, they beat us fair and square but..." whine, if you're going to whine whine like a man.
That LA Team is way too limited and won't have a chance of winning it all for some time. Heck they won't even get out of the west anytime soon.
Mel_13 I agree about that Kawhi screen.
That was one of the headiest moves I've seen in a while. It gave Duncan the daylight he needed.
Update on Chris Paul and the Houston game.
"It wasnt fair they scored too many points." "We should have had a little more help from the refs. They didnt call enough fouls."
Wonder what Chris Paul will say? Houston 98 Los Angeles Clippers 81
lol owned by a beardless Rox team
Butthurt for the no call at the last possession. Dude flopped instead of putting up a real shot like a man.
Only pussies & assholes blame the officiating.
