Paul is not a better player than either, you said nothing about experience

Paul is still someone I would rather have in 2015. Davis is just new so people aren't trying to expose him yet. Paul is way better offensively

their bench is absolutely atrocious
We could have a decent serviceable bench if Jordan Hamilton, CJ Wilcox were added into the mix. They're athletic, can D up, and have nice range from the 3 point line.. but they're not over 30 years of age, didn't play for Doc back in Boston, and their last names aren't 'Rivers':beli:

Turkoglu has been decent in the games I've watched. He doesn't play any defense (not that he ever did), but he can shoot and he's a proven player in the playoffs. They should never have traded Jared Dudley, but I'm sure you've been over that one a bunch.

The truly bad thing about that is that we also gave Milwaukee a 1st round pick just to take Dudley off our hands, not to mention we could've used Dudley this year. Doc is the gift that just keeps on giving:snoop:

Their starting line up is really hard to stop.
They can't afford any injury and gonna have to play the big 3, 40+ min a game(in competitive playoff games).

Plus they have good talent on D, with Jordan, Paul and Barnes is solid but they have a complex defensive scheme that requires perfect timing on defensive rotations and any squad with good ball movement can destroy that.
Finally Paul is one of the best defenders as a PG during the first 82. No one reads opposing offenses as well as he does but in the playoffs he tends to take dumb risks and takes plays off to rest for the other end
He did a great job on Curry last year but otherwise

No inside game from jordan.... blake is more concerned with shooting 15 foot jumpshots and don't play with his back to the basket....
And unlike the warriors there jump shooting is inconsistent.... and finally paul doesn't like to take game overs...

Their done in the second round this year in san Antonio by 4 games to 1
great prediction :mjlol:

They're too busy crying about every call and employing washed up versions of players from five years ago.

They depend on Jamal Crawford for offense, who can't do it without taking every shot while he's on the floor.

Can't beat the Spurs or Warriors in a series because they don't value defense enough.

I dont trust paul in a close game.

Blake is nice but he wont beat u by himself

Dj cant make free throws either

:francis:

Still not trust Paul in close games after he dropped a GW on a bum leg on the 2nd most dangerous team in the West?

Paul is better than Davis offensively? :dahell: In terms of what?

Paul is a more versatile scorer, better playmaker, ball handler, and passer.
