He has terrible luck getting hurt in the postseason and now he wakes up today after another year getting bounced in the playoffs. Chris Paul thinking about the one that got away vs the Bucks a few years ago

Before your sub gets overrun by trolls, I wanted to share a little positivity and talk about how Chris Paul got me through some dark times with the bottle.

I won’t go through my whole backstory, but once I started it was hard to stop. One drink becomes two, two becomes three, and soon I’m throwing shot glasses at the bartender for cutting me off. I can’t even go to half the bars in my town because I’ve been thrown out of them all.

Anyway, a couple years ago Chris Paul said that he was sort of addicted to playing in the NBA Finals. Since he admitted to it, watching him do whatever he could to ensure he wouldn’t relapse was inspiring. Ever since then, I haven’t had one sip of alcohol. Like Chris Paul, I was determined to never go all the way again.

I usually feel bad for superstar players who look like they'll finish their career without a ring but for some reason, I have no sympathy for Chris Paul.

Chris Paul has been on some really good teams too. Albeit he is a big reason why. This will be his legacy however

Not sure that was the one that got away they had no business In The finals that year.


Suns series wins since start of 2021:

LAL- Davis hurt
DEN- Murray hurt
LAC- Kawhi hurt
NOP- Zion hurt
LAC- Kawhi/PG hurt

Suns losses:

MIL, DAL, DEN

Every time they've faced a healthy team they've lost.

Hard to ignore this... but hopefully this means the Suns ownership isn't tied to Monty, CP3, and Ayton, and they realize the Suns were never actually truly an elite team.

It simply wasn't meant for him to win one. He can go and join the ranks of Charles Barkley, Malone/Stockton, Nash, and Ewing as the greatest players to never win a championship.

Yea at this point it's hard to look past that. 2021 is such a big blemish on that team. They won 64 games in the regular season. They looked like absolute world beaters all season. Only to get beaten by 50 in game 7.

Put me in the hope he never wins one camp after the stinker he laid in HOU. CP was so bad he went vegan and changed his entire training regiment after HOU dumped him. If he would have taken his diet and fitness more serious BEFORE getting traded away and being called the worst contract in the league HOU knocks off GSW at least one of those years.

At the same time he does have the worst playoff injury luck of anyone in this century.

For being a cheap arse player who really put the cut in front of a trailing defender and then stop for BS fouls crap into overdrive.

At least he didn't get beat up by a 14 yr old this year.

"Chris Paul in the 4th quarter talking to security in Dallas about a fan, saying "he put his hands on me"

I'm still mad the Hawks drafted Marvin Williams over Deron Williams and Chris Paul.
