its sad that these days people care more about stats than championships. winshares are more important than actual wins. anything to give everyone a participation medal and a pat on the back.We have to stop thinking about team pro sports in this manner man. It really is frustrating to see people feel this way. As if it is THAT simple of an equation. If he were better, the team would have been better and beat better teams.
people keep saying things like "cant blame chris paul for not winning when his team isnt good enough to win a championship"
if he was a better player then his team would be good enough to win a championship
I love Nash but that statement isn't something you can honestly quantify to say with such assurance. I believe the development of Amare, the leadership of D'Antoni, and the shooters that were surrounding Nash all played an equal role in the success of the Suns. Without any one of those things, that team would probably not have been as successful.
not only but by far the biggest reason, and he has two MVPs to show for it
people bring up how nash was only good for 4 years, even in 2010 he lead his team to being two wins away from the finals. 2010.. isnt that the "chris paul era" yet a far superior pg is out there leading his team way farther than cp has ever gone at the age of 35
it is very rare to find a perfect team with no flaws, you could say they need better _____ for any championship teamno but he's not a slouch either. i can't get on cp for the clippers failures so far. they need better wings. thats whats holding them back.would you say blake is as good of a player as amare?Nash played with a hall of fame talent at the time in Amar'e Stoudemire.

But there can only be one winner. And NBA history shows that that one winner doesn't change that often. So for us to consider everyone that doesn't "win" as being AT FAULT, doesn't make much sense honestly. Everytime someone loses, it doesn't mean the loser is AT FAULT. The winner could have just been a better team, something we tend to dismiss in pro sports.

classic cp defense"a far superior pg"
I worry about you. This misinformed contempt is not healthy.
Correct. Star players elevate the play of their teammates, but there is always going to be a limit to that elevation

thats what star players are for, they make up for your team's weaknesses. the heat lacked size but lebron's greatness overcame that. not many people considered the mavs a real contender by dirk played out of his mind and carried his team to a championship. if chris paul would have outplayed westbrook last year the clippers would have not lost in the 2nd round
its strange how people will blame guys like kobe, melo, lebron and kd for their teams shortcomings but when it comes to pgs its always "they just were not good enough to win"
umm most of them?I ask again, IN WHICH SERIES, has a CP3 lead team, lost to an opponent in the playoffs
pull ya skirt down bYou guys are letting a troll hook you guys again
Just let him go back to "wash your face b" jokes and let's move on.
thats exactly my point, cp's limit is way shorter than a guy like lebron or magic or kobe or even kdCorrect. Star players elevate the play of their teammates, but there is always going to be a limit to that elevation

And I don't blame LeBron, KD or Melo either. Basketball is a TEAM sport. If a team doesn't succeed it is usually because the TEAM isn't good enough. Not being the "star" player isn't a big enough star. I mean I can't even understand why people buy into that logic.
so has chris paul and he still hasnt done anything of relevance in the nbaI have played this game with people like you for almost a decade now.
CP3's limit is shorter because his teammates have traditionally been less talented, as a whole.
thats exactly my point, cp's limit is way shorter than a guy like lebron or magic or kobe or even kd
if we are talking pgs ill throw westbrook, jason kidd and nash on that list too
When you make statements like THIS, it kind of shows me where your head is when discussing this topic. Good to know

time to admit that you're wrong about your boy
