This is poor from you breh. After I brought FACTS to the table and basically proved everything single point of his to be false, and he just replied with nonsense like he always does when he's exposed for being a liar.
It's time we stop recognizing Chris Paul as a great defensive player
- Thread starter Gil Scott-Heroin
- Start date
You have to admit that Paul didn't deserve to be in the All-defensive 1st team. His name shouldn't even be in the discussion. I can name at least 20 guards better than him on defense.
If anybody had been watching the Clippers regularly this season, they would've seen how much of a turnstile on defense he was and how he would regularly take possessions/games off on defense. And how much DeAndre had to cover for him. He's lucky to be a top 5 defender on his own team.
I watched 100s of games this season and I can say without a doubt that Curry had more impact on that end. All his individual defensive numbers (contest rate, keep in front %, keep in front drive % and defensive FG%) were all better.
Curry defended 10.8 shots a game this season and his opponents shot -3.1% (FG%) worse
Paul defended 9.6 shots a game this season and his opponents shot +2.2% (FG%) better
It's certainly not unreasonable to suggest so like you're acting it is.

Hollins is a stiff but I don't think he has to be a DPOY to be a judge. In recent years, when the Clippers needed a stop, Paul was on the bench. Once a player is declared to be good or bad at defense, everyone just goes with it.
Kobe is the best example of this. Early in his career, he showed the ability to lock in when needed. As his scoring responsibilities ramped up, they started hiding him off the ball more and more . He put up below average defensive marks for just about his entire career because he just wasn't used on that side of the floor. In 2011, even the biggest stans admitted he sucked and wasn't healthy enough to play defense anymore and he STILL got 1st team
But thecoli told me he was shutting down Lillard in the first round.
Seems like this thread needs to be upped again:

Not only is this not relevant to the thread but this couldn't be further from the truth.

knowing how gilbert's posts usually go, CP3 is probably gonna have a streak where he holds every opposing PG to zero
