THE 2017 NBA 'OFFS™

Hayward the wholesome juiceman

yeah they showed a side by side of him now vs in college and my eyebrows raised a little

i would confidently say that chris paul is a top 5 PG

Hayward was always an elite athlete I guess but he's just so fucking swole

Man this game ending is gonna be super lame now

jordan i can't tell if you're trolling me or

I would say CP3 is 8ish

maybe call a timeout next time dummies

I'm too worn out to calculate the percentages of what they did there

It was a pretty good look

players that are definitely better than chris paul right now

harden
lebron
durant
curry
???

oh kawhi

ok top 8 without question

cp3 is not definitely better than anthony davis, giannis, john wall, jimmy butler

can you give me one metric where john wall rates ahead of cp3?

http://www.basketball-reference.com/play-index/pcm_finder.fcgi?request=1&sum=0&player_id1_hint=John+Wall&player_id1_select=John+Wall&y1=2017&player_id1=walljo01&player_id2_hint=Chris+Paul&player_id2_select=Chris+Paul&y2=2017&player_id2=paulch01

i guess his assist percentage was 0.1% higher

how is paul pierce on the floor right now

cp3 is reading this thread

lol i was just gonna say that!

anyway, john wall rates better than him as a defender, is as elite at stealing as cp3 and is also an elite shot blocker for a guard. john wall also sees the floor as well as any PG in the league imo. cp3 is one of the most consistent jump shooters in the league and john wall obv doesn't have that, but wall is also elite in transition. again, i'm just saying cp3's not *definitely* better than him.

nurkic is better than cp3

i wouldn't go that far yet

to me these players are definitely better than cp3

lebron
harden
russ
kawhi
durant
brow

cp3 is at best the 7th best player in the league

not a great loss by the jazz...

well there's 9 seconds left and it is the clippers..

i think saying russ is a better player than cp3 is utter lunacy btw but we'll pick up this debate another time

needless to say, that dial shot was not even close to being a shooting foul

diaw

no. nba continuation is ridiculous enough as it is

No curry on j0's list :(

Is jingles supposed to be a good defender why was he checking cp the whole 4th?

He's a good defender yeah

That was a top 5 cp game

@johnschuhmann: w/ no Griffin in the 2nd half, Chris Paul had a beyond-Russ usage rate of 48%, w/ a TS% of 68% & 1 TO. Not bad. https://t.co/kvpn3z7T5c

griffin out for the rest of the playoffs with a toe injury. what a joke man

lolclippers

Wow. How. A toe? How does a toe get injured unless stepped on?

he was probably juicing between the toes

how many playoffs has it been now where one of the clips starters gets injured?

No curry on j0's list :(

whoops. so 8th best.

curry is bad now

Amir Johnson benched for... Gerald Green!

worked out ok

didt see the game but judging from the box score they played 5 out all game

interesting considering theyre getting killed on the boards but its not like their bigs rebound anyway

http://abcnews.go.com/Sports/nba-incident-patrick-beverley-fan/story?id=46957125

not positive what this is about but bev ran recklessly (and imo intentionally) into the front row of fans immediately after fouling out last night -- he tried to play it off like he couldn't stop his momentum but it looked pretty intentional to me. pretty despicable move imo

Something we weird about that but they didn't show a replay last night

more chris paul facts

had his best rebounding season
had his best ts% season by far
9th in PER
3rd in WS/48
3rd in box plus-minus
1st in real plus minus

There's no reason why Lowry should be bad in the playoffs

i'm not usually the type of person to believe in this stuff but lowry has always been a volatile/heady guy, maybe he just crumbles under pressure

Giannis' jumper has looked pretty great this series. Like it seems to have improved just from looking at the form and release. Not aiming it.
