when watching CP that year did you think he was giving 110%?
I hate speculating on effort, especially for a player coming off an injury like Paul's. Was he different? Yes. Was it lack of effort? I don't think so, but I get why many feel differently.
quote:
passive he was until the playoffs started
PER 36 he put up the same numbers in the playoffs. He did shoot better and, tellingly, he got to the line more frequently. So there's something to a more aggressive Paul.
Same time, everyone amps it up for the playoffs. Paul, since his injury, has lost a step. He cant dominate like he used to. Jarring for us to see it after his insane run from 07-09. What he did was the best run from any pg ever.
But IMO, I don't think he was pouting. Injury repurcussions and a realization that his body would not hold up playing balls out for 82 + playoffs are the culprits for differences we still see in LA.

The narrative for Paul is whatever people want it to be,apparently.
I know that be and Jada enjoyed living here. And that's pretty much from the source over a couple of years.
I also believe that he very well may have stayed with stronger ownership and stability. The idea that he fricked the team over is ludicrous. Given the circumstances, I would have bailed, too. The idea of his people "manipulating" the market is funny. He tried to get the best situation he could like any rational player would do.
