You guys are the best basketball channel. I’m a young guy and only started watching the NBA in 2019. And so all of your videos are like the most informative thing
I know lots of people dislike Chris for many reasons and I don't know him personally, but it does hurt me that the Lob City Clippers-and by extension, Chris himself-didn't get a championship. If he does retire ringless, I will still consider him one of the elites of the modern game.
Spurs fan here and I actually wanted to say i wish we deal him in the deadline not because he isn’t gonna play well but because I want him to have a chance we aren’t good enough and is a development year and let him have a chance to be good elsewhere
Hornets CP3 will always be one of my favorite NBA players of all time. Those teams were so fun to watch with guys like Peja, West, Chandler and Mo Pete. It's just unfortunate that he will go down as one of the greats to never have won a championship.
Phoenix will always appreciate what he did here. He's a top 3-5 point guard of all time. The man is 6 feet tall and 39 yet he's still in the league contributing.
Kevin Martin and Goran Dragic were both 20th scorers and Luis Scola was a double double machine along with Lamar Odom; that was a much better deal that David Stern turned down than people think. The Hornets would’ve been competitive for years with that squad.
@@manzac112 Exactly, AD with Goran at the point with Luis backing him up, Kevin as 6th man and Odom playing SF would’ve been a squad until around 2016 or 2017. And then Goran would’ve been a 20ppg scorer next to AD until around 2021.
Are we really so sure Chris and Kobe would have gotten along? The micro manager with a Napoleon complex and the mean spirited bully? I know Chris looked up to Kobe, but playing nice at the All Star game is not the same thing as actually sharing a locker room with him. I reckon they would have been at each other's throats before long.
@@DaDualityofMan That's the consequence of basing how you interact with your teammates on game results. Every team goes through ups and downs and being a jerk just cause you're in one of those lows is a surefire way to end up with flaky co-star teammates as options or alone. You know, the exact thing Kobe went through after Paul trade failed with Dwight/Nash and those years where nobody wanted to play with him.
@@guru_basketball_kiero Idk about that. Kobe was still way too results driven and CP3 had a tendency to get injured or choke in the playoffs. Kobe had no patience for either of those things.
It’s funny, in ‘21 while Paul was shooting such a high percentage and willing his team to the Finals (and a 2-0 lead, right?) I was rooting for him even though I had come to hate him through his foul-baiting. (Then it was easy to turn around be happy for Giannis) Now I’m so excited for Wemby’s career that I will swallow my pride and bile if they become competitive. Victor is somebody to root for no matter who he’s got next to him. Praying for twenty healthy years and dominance like we have never seen.
I don’t remember their contracts, but I think the reason Stern vetoed the trade was because he didn’t want NO to take too much oncoming salary so that it would be more attractive to potential buyers.
@@gavindhaliwal9643 the trade was vetoed after Dan Gilbert (and a few other NBA owners iirc) wrote a letter to Stern basically whining about how unfair the league would be if he allowed that trade
This is my second season of watching basketball and I LOVE ur guys videos it has gotten me so informed on the past of my new favorite sport thank you guys!

Chris Paul has had an interesting NBA career so far. In the beginning, he was a bright young star with the New Orleans Hornets, leading them to 56 wins at just 22 years old. Paul is one of the greatest point guards of all time, and yet...he's still somehow underrated. Despite the doubters, Paul is still an elite player who literally makes every single team better. Every team he played for in his NBA career has been better with him on the roster, as he fits seamlessly into any situation. Paul is objectively one of the 10 greatest point guards ever, a rare combination of historic passing, very good shooting, slicing attacks toward the rim, and elite defense at his position
That's your job as someone who engulfs so much of the team salary. Yes, there are bums out there like Bradley Beal but for the most part, guys who are in the top 15 in salary make their teams better. Also, as much as I appreciate CP3's skill, he also had a very clear ceiling, either due to his body breaking down late in the season or due to choking.
I'm a staunch Chris Paul defender (outside of G5 vs OKC and whatever the hell happened vs DAL in 22 lol). I genuinely think he's one of the greatest players in the history of the game despite the lack of a ring. On a per possession basis, very few guys impact winning like he has
per JimmyHighRoller, hes so similar to Lebron in value, hes THE MOST SIMILAR player to Lebron in the league. really ironic one of the most cursed players is essentially a 6’1 lebron, one of the most talented and gifted players ever.
Rockets got Fostered in game 7 of the WCF in 2018! The officiating was HORRIBLE!!!! Even the commentators were calling the refs out! Chris Webber was astounded at the no calls! Seems like Reggie Miller too maybe talked about how bad the refs were!
13:00 bruh you wanna argue that the Sun would be bad without Chris Paul? If Jokic wasn't on the Nuggets that year, The Nuggets woulda had the worst record in a while. Jokic took Campazo and Austin Rivers to the playoffs as starters!! C'mon now haha.
Hey, huge fan. I just wanted to ask, where do you get the videos for full matches from ? I've been looking around and couldn't find anything. Especially the 2010s playoff games. Anyways, great job guys.
It’s crazy how of the banana boat crew, Paul is on his last legs, wade and melo are retired, and meanwhile LeBron is still a top 10 player in the league
As a Lakers fan, I think if Chris Paul's trade didn't get vetoed that the Lakers could've won the 2012 championship. Getting past OKC and the Heat would've been difficult, but if everyone's healthy it could've been done. I will forever hate Dan Gilbert for sending David Stern that stupid email saying, "I just can't see how we can allow this trade to happen." and then when Kevin Love got traded to the Cavs no one complained about that, yet he complained about the Lakers. And even if Chris Paul went to the Lakers and Dwight Howard still got traded too, then he could've let his back fully heal after the surgery going into the playoffs. Man, what a missed opportunity.
Man I'm really sorry the Lakers weren't able to get another high profile player and that a small market like Cleveland was able to get a trade done. I'm sure that must give you sleepless nights.
@@melvynsngltn27Idk why so many keep ignoring the value that Gasol and Odom brought to the Lakers. Paul may have been better than them, but replacing two players with the size, skill, and versatility of Gasol and Odom was gonna be difficult.
Y'all underrate role players and lower level stars. With OKC, I agree it was surprising he made that cast work. However, that Hornets squad was nice. Same with the package of Kevin Martin, Luis Scola, Lamar Odom and Goran Dragic, 3 of them were fringe all star level around that time.
To be fair, that 2018 year with the Rockets, CP3 was injured for a big chunk early, so before the All-Star game. That's primarily the reason he didn't make the team as a reserve at least. Guys playing only a few games have certainly gotten voted in as starters before but coaches picked the reserves I think so they won't pick someone missing half the games.
I use to watch cp3 play all the time on the hornets. Ive watched him in the playoffs. Hes always does a mistake that costs his team the game. Its been like that his whole career, which sucks because hes the best true pg weve seen in the 2000s. Hes also always hurt when it counts.
Injuries are the reasons. And here's probably why. Rookie-> Prime CP3 the dude always played 110%, not just scoring or playmaking but true impactful team defense. When you go over the limit of your stamina and muscles, injuries happens. It's kind of crazy to see how good he was on D with his small body and wingspan. of course he had to do way more than big guys with big wingspan.
With the Suns, thr pick and role with Ayton was almost unstopable until Giannis. Giannis stated with cp3 or Booker to stop the guards and when a lob was given to Ayton, he chased the dunk as well. Suns had no answer when Giannis was on Ayton.
He is the definition of a “Winner without a championship”. Every team he goes to wins significantly more with his presence…and at the same time he keeps losing. It’s mystifying
There are many great NBA players without an NBA ring, Chris Paul (arguably one of the best ringless players) is one of them and we should celebrate him just like we celebrate these other players.
Yall definitely underrated Chris Paul's supporting cast with the Hornets. Technically yes Chris had a bigger turnaround than lebron but Paul had a better "Team" around him. Imagine if lebron had West, Stojakovic, and Chandler in Cleveland instead of Gooden, Damon Jones and Ilgauskus. in the East!
Kobe played 48 minutes a game at 34 years old because that team was so much in shambles with the injury bug.. put Chris Paul there.. I don’t think we are even in that situation to begin with because I feel the team meshes better than the Nash/howard experiment.. so I don’t think he tears his Achilles from over working himself.. but we will never know
I’m a Spurs fan, and I have the feeling that CP will be traded at the deadline to a contender. After that Spurs will crash out and enter the Cooper Flagg sweepstakes
I was gonna watch this vid but wtf is up with the random ad libs!?! Some echo of agreement coming from the back? Is there a second guy there? Totally unneeded. Weird
Hey, that Japanese soldier was hunkered in the Philippines 😅 🇵🇭 Seeking your opinions... Is CP settled into his elder statesman role, helping Wemby grow... Or he doesn't want to join other teams like the Lakers because he'll look like the ultimate ring chaser (and say, just burnish LeBron's reputation if they win)? Just curious what people think (even though it's moot at this point). Also also, besides Point God, he made sure to get the bag while he was head of the Player's Association 💰💰💰 Which benefitted all vets but, hehe, was the equivalent of a backboard assist to himself 😅
It's telling that Paul didn't get past the 2nd round of the playoffs in his first 12 years in the league, which was his prime. His skills are well-suited for the regular season, but not for the playoffs. That's why he's always fallen short. Reminds me of Carmelo. They are gonna accrue stats, they can get you to the playoffs, but they're gonna be an early out.
@@sudowoodo5826 Stats aren't everything. I've seen way too many games where CP3 does nothing when it matters and then decides to get his stats in garbage time. I agree he's better than Carmelo but they both have skillsets that just don't translate well to the playoffs. CP3 is way too passive and Carmelo was just a ballhog.
Well based off what CP3 did with other SG guards.....him and Kobe would see the Finals. Yall forget Kobe got hurt due to a shit ton of usage. He could finally be a catch and shoot player with CP3 drawing in with the P&R.Dwight wouldn't work bc he wanted to play post more to prove a point. I agree with that
I can get the no losing cp3 part of the veto... But then you lose him anyway It would be like me trying to sell my phone tomorrow, if i reject offers and then try the same 3 years later i'm certain i'll lose money
It ok to talk about how about a team or player you love just be objective about it, they are objective in that, multiple times they talk about how bad the Portland trailblazers are and how they failed Damian lillard
CP3 and Kobe would've been the best backcourt tandem for that period and yet David Stern denied it for "basketball reasons" which does not make sense at all.
u think 2024 harrison barnes as ur 2nd best player woulda won a ring? HA let the man give wemby quality passes Train their new guard look at shai, cp3 taught him so much and its been a genuine help
@@shadows5499 Um, what does any of what you said have to do with him not winning a championship? Him literally doing any or all of what you wrote, won't change the fact that he isn't going to get a ring. If anything, when it comes right down to it, he will absolutely be the reason they won't sniff a championship this year.
The funny thing is he’d have a championship if bone headed mistakes weren’t made late in like 3 of those 4 games lost. I feel like people forget how close the games were when they lost 4 straight. Not to mention his #1 hater in Scott Foster officiating. 😅

Him literally doing any or all of what you wrote, won't change the fact that he isn't going to get a ring. If anything, when it comes right down to it, he will absolutely be the reason they won't sniff a championship this year.
That Lowrey ‘butt’ joke will never not be funny
neva been this early
Still time for Chris to win one in San Antonio
You can thank Doc Rivers for that
CP3 should sue the NBA for not allowing the Lakers trade.
I am 100 percent a Houston hater but it was heartbreaking what happened to him
at least cp3 got to a final, the blazers? lillard?
True
You can thank David Stern. He would’ve won at least one with Kobe and the Lakers
I’m GOONING
The funny thing is he’d have a championship if bone headed mistakes weren’t made late in like 3 of those 4 games lost. I feel like people forget how close the games were when they lost 4 straight. Not to mention his #1 hater in Scott Foster officiating. 😅
#GuruBasketballKieroSays that Steph Curry crossover on Paul was disgusting and soul snatching
Blame David Stern for vetoing the trade to the lakers.
There’s no way that Rockets team was beating the Cavs in a 7 game series, cut it tf out.
I kinda feel bad for Chris just because every time he got close to a ring something went wrong
I honestly don’t think the 18 rockets could beat 18 playoff LeBron.
