Startling revelation if true
Better than Porker
Who gives a about CP
You mofos will hate CP3 more than Porker when he dribbles dribbles and deny your Kawhi the ball..
Already top 10 in assists.
Yes.. but you wont win another championship
lol Spurs fans. Spurs continually in the top tier of assists per game but get mad because one players doesn't average 10+. Still don't understand the system.
Lol at Paul not being good. When have the Clippers had the best team out west? He's a great player, but he's playing in the Duncan/Kobe/Curry eras. Only three teams out west have won a le. But lots of great players out west.
Of course CP3 is good (I don't buy the talent argument - he has a pretty stacked team). The issue is just flatly equating assists with everything. On SA he would not average the assists he does (does not mean he isn't a great player)
My point isn't that he doesn't have a talented team, it's that there have always been more talented teams out west. Only 5 teams out West have made it to the finals in the last what 18 years. He's never been on the consensus number one team. As for averaging 10 assists, he could've easily done it in the Robinson/Duncan era. Now, we only have one ball dominant player, and that's Kawhi. No, it's not Parker. But even Kawhi could be a superior off the ball scorer. He and Paul would be great together, but I'm sure the Spurs wouldn't let Paul run the team like he does the Clippers, so naturally his assist numbers would go down.
Says who?
The two guys above you^^
wait till george hill kicks cp3 out of this year playoffs
Numbers indicate that CP3 game is very conductive to winning throughout his entire career and with different teammates around him, tbh.
Don't disagree a bit. But... there are times when the Spurs' offense sputters, and a guy with CP3's skills would be a benefit. He's always struggled to break down a zone. He's never drawn fouls like CP3 does - I won't write half a page about why.
So, yeah, there are times when Paul's skills would be better. But I don't know how much better, if any, the team would be for it. They might win a few more of those games when the offense isn't clicking. But they would probably lose some of the ones where CP3 goes black hole.
You might want to look back at the W/L record of the teams he was on. A couple of years in NO he had a LOT of talent around him, and they did well. He's done well at LAC, with Blake and Cousins - but the team has never lived up to the expectations of all the talent they had. Not saying it's his fault. But the years his teams have been successful haven't all been because of him, either.
But people here almost ALWAYS underestimate anyone who doesn't wear silver and black. CP3 is a badass, plain and simple. Making a blanket statement that he "doesn't play winning basketball" is just ignorant.
Especially now CP3 would be better. No doubt. CP3 is an amazing player. Just making a point to those obessesed with assists while failing to take into consideration system.
I would take CP3 over porker in a heartbeat.
I don't get your point son, it's like you made the second paragraph to contradict your first one.
Anyway, CP3 has been on winning teams ever since he matured as a player in 07/08 (where he should have won MVP), since that point on his teams have had winning records except in 2010 where, not coincidentally, he got injured. And he has been the main reason for all those winning seasons in both of his teams. Clippers become a joke when he doesn't play.
Hes good if not great but you have to look at the teams he had to go up against, namely the Spurs. Is Paul better than Parker, probably but Griffin, Deandre, West etc aint no Duncan, Ginobili and all our great bench players not to mention Pops. If the Spurs hadnt existed Paul might have won a ring just like if the Lakers with Shaq, Kobe and Phil Jackson hadnt existed we might be going for Bill Russells record instead of Jordans.
Also I believe too much of a pass happy PG can be a detriment because it takes away both isolation play and team passing. Teams start relying too much on the one special pass.
Signing Paul would improve LMA play significantly IMO..he'd also help Green and our starting rolling center. CP3 is the master of setting up others with great looks...he's exactly the player Pop is trying to get Tony to do but just can't cause he's a scoring guard with tunnel vision.
Spurs and CP3 need each other tbh
