And there will still be some idiots in the fanbase that hate him because he quietly requested a trade in the offseason because he was sick of Shinn's bullshite.

We are nearly 2 decades removed from his last season here and he is still responsible for the most joy this franchise has ever experienced.

Jrue requested a trade.

I don't have a problem with either of them. As long as they don't act like a jackass *cough* AD *cough*.

Pelicans fans that dislike CP3 are retarded.

The consistently best basketball I’ve ever seen in my life was Chris Paul with the hornets. Some of the games I watched him play in person were just unreal. Including his near perfect shooting game to eliminate us.

The guy moved on to greener pastures to try and win a ring. Our team wasn’t serious about winning and put up a white flag trading a premier defensive center in his prime.

It’s a shame we never could pair Paul with a truly elite second piece, no disrespect intended to the very good David West.

It's a shame Paul is so impossible to work with.

He's the kind of person that would perfectly fit into the modern NBA coach's mold.

He had 33pts on 14/14 shooting. How much more perfect could he have been?

Chris Paul is fricking Michael Jordan compared to Anthony Davis or Zion. At the time of the trade I was upset but Chris Paul had every right to ask for a trade. We had no owner nor were they serious about winning either.

He was part of the best core by far
this franchise ever had. It’s a damne shame. That team had real potential.
with one, maybe two, additions. Broke dick Shinn, though…

The Hornets v Spurs playoff series was the pinnacle of Nola Basketball! It was an awesome atmosphere in the arena! Peja on a stick FTW!!

I don't understand why people try to force this type of conversation. Paul made 100s of millions of dollars as a player. He led the players union and stood up against owners. He is one of the primary voices of the player empowerment movement.

Given all of that, you would hire him to coach your team? You really think he would listen, care, or have any concerns other than for himself and his personal glory?

It's actually insane how bad it was. I saw an oldvideo of them practicing there the other day.

Without looking it up maybe Mo Pete or Bonzi Wells?

My memory is absolutely shot but I remember Bonzi being particularly key in one of those

Yes!!! Pargo. The dude showed flashes of great play but he missed a pretty big shot. It could happen to anybody, I guess…
