Is this the worst Playoff game ever for a superstar?

kevin johnson can still be off the charts nasty and not be better than chris paul. people always act like you said a player aint shyt when you say hes not better than player a. what did kevin johnson do on the basketball court that was superior to chris paul? there was nothing he did that was better than paul.

He was super fast with crazy jumping ability, He was a better scorer than Chris Paul, better at getting to the rim than Chris Paul, a very good passer, was good at picking pockets and playing the passing lanes, was 1 of 5 players to average 20+ ppg and 10+ apg for 3 consecutive seasons, averaged 10+ assists for 4 consecutive seasons, his 1st 7 seasons on the Suns as the starter...his team won 50+ plus in each season while he averaged 20.0 pts, 10.2 assts, and 1.6 stls on 49.4% FG over those 7 seasons.

who cares
He was a better scorer than Chris Paul
how exactly?
better at getting to the rim than Chris Paul
ill give you that one. but paul breaks down a defense and creates mismatches much better
a very good passer, was good at picking pockets and playing the passing lanes
sure. but was he better than paul is any of these aspects? think not
was 1 of 5 players to average 20+ ppg and 10+ apg for 3 consecutive seasons, averaged 10+ assists for 4 consecutive seasons,
so what?.
his 1st 7 seasons on the Suns as the starter his team won 50+ plus in each season while he averaged 20.0 pts, 10.2 assts, and 1.6 stls on 49.4% FG over those 7 seasons.
and those arbitrary stats make him better than paul how? paul posted similar numbers, while playing at a pace that was around 15 less possessions a game than the fast paced suns did

:comeon: Kobe Bryant went 4-20(20%) for 8 points,5 fouls,5 rebs and 3 assists in the FINALS Lakers lost by 33

While Shaq had 35 points and 11 rebs :pachaha:

i like Chris Paul, but is superstar appropriate?


i feel like Kevin Johnson was better. shyt, Timmy Hardaway seemed more cutthroat to me too.


granted i'm not a bball nerd, espn regurgitating dude like most but i have a feel for the game.

I think he's the most underrated pg ever. If take him over guys like kidd and stockton easily

so kevin johnson went from underrated, to better than paul, kidd, and stockton. :dead:

He's a much better offensive player then kidd or stockton at their peaks, especially kidd. Blows them out of the water as a scorer particulary in the Playoffs

17.2 pts, 6.5 assts, 1.3 stls, on 42.1% FG is "craptacular"?


He only had 2 horrible games:manny:


Game 1: 11 pts on 4-13 FG 2 rebs, 2 assts, and 1 stl
Game 2: 4 pts on 2-8 FG, 6 assts, and 3 stl


From Game 3 thru the end of the series, he played good

Game 3: 25 pts on 11-24 FG, 9 assts, 7 rebs, 2 stls, and 1 block
Game 4: 19 pts on 7-16 FG, 4 assts, and 3 rebs
Game 5: 25 pts on 10-20 FG, 8 assts, 1 reb, and 1 stl
Game 6: 19 pts on 6-14 FG, 10 assts, 5 rebs, 1 stl, and 1 block

Negativity (Kayfabe)
CP3 is too friendly most the time. He could take a lesson from Zeke or DRose.

Small players need a complex and attitude with their talents. Zeke didn't give a fucck
and DRose don't wanna be their friends either.

In bizarro world

Chris just loves being a Point Guard

Yea, it's weird

He wants to run the offenses and distribute the ball more than score :dry:
