I think the reason why Chris Paul is barely mentioned in the conversation for best PG alongside Russ and Steph is because he doesn't have that "wow factor". He is so consistently great, that people forget how elite he is.
+Kyle Van Zeumeren Let's just ignore the fact that he's one guy out of 12 on a roster that are suppose to contribute to TEAM success. Yes, let's ignore that and act like he's the only one playing for the Clippers. Absolutely genius.
Plus that Clippers team was never going to win any titles. It was a showtime team, they were nowhere near deep enough to really cause problems to genuine contenders.
Holy shit. A Spurs team with Chris Paul would be so good. Starting line up of CP3, Danny Green, Kawhi, Aldridge & Pau Gasol would be so good and so technically proficient. God damn.
4 x leader in ast 6 x leader in stls a few 20 10 seasons to his name plus the all nba/defensive selections, with more to come First ballad regardless of if he wins a ring or not
I don't know if this stat is still relevant but this guy has the highest career assist to turnover ratio in NBA history. He's simply one of the best of all-time if not the best of all time ballhandler in taking care of the ball while dominating the ball most of the time. He is second in MVP in my rankings.
Bruh, you can when the only franchises you've played full seasons with have been the Hornets & Clippers. That Clippers team was a showtime team but was never genuinely going to contend for a title with the pieces they had outside of CP3, Blake & DJ. If him & Harden stay healthy, the Rockets could really take it to the Warriors in the West.
Thank you for this great video coach! I feel like Cp3's greatness goes completely unappreciated with all these Currys and Westbrooks in the league. True point guard
He doesn't get as much recognition because he's a pass first point unlike curry who shoots anytime he gets space and nobody care if you drop 16 assists but if you have 50 points everybody pays attention. I personally would take Cp3 because if curry didn't have Draymond, Klay, Iggy he wouldn't be as good as they make him sound. Cp3 is consistent no matter who's on the court.
+darkyinyang1 he's our best player at the moment without Blake. If we had Blake this whole season than Blake would avg. more than Chris and Chris would get more assist. Griffin comes back Sunday.
all you taught me is that I have deficits that you exploit at will and make me feel like shit, this I had to work on them you really are to blame tfor that
Excellent video. I play PG and he is one of my inspiration. More often than not, the players develop their confidence based on how good your PG is. The more easy baskets they make with a good pass they try to experiment things and start cutting, faking etc.
Yup, definitely. He has everything you could possibly want from a point guard. Unfortunately, due to both the performances of his teammates and sometimes himself, he hasn't been able to advance that far into the playoffs.
+Javornie Brathwaite Exactly. Even his height really isn't much of a flaw cause he has great strength and lateral quickness. Like when he locked up KD a few years ago
This video will be used as reference for me in the future. All anybody wants to look at is scoring, big numbers and team success but as a purist I appreciate all these little things pointed out here. I gave the same stink face look at some of those passes and steals that people do on Blake dunks and Curry 3s. To me that is beautiful to watch. CP3 is a genius and with or without a ring is finishing no lower than top 10 all time at the point, top 5 imo.
Franklin Matos fr = "for real" I'm guessing. But yeah, CP3 is so underrated. Statistically he's an all time great PG without question. I just really hope he gets that elusive ring. He deserves it.
No Blake Griffin for like 60 games and this team still finished top 3 in offensive efficiency because of CP3. He doesn't have to score more or assist more but his presence makes that team go. Everyone has a easier time finding shots with him around. Even non scorers like M bah a MOute(when he was there) and Jordan.
+1000 for righteous justice. If Westbrook played as smart as CP3, KD would never have left OKC. Basketball fundamentals, vision, and intelligence are better than just athleticism in a POINT GUARD. Not to say Westbrook lacks skill or intelligence, but he's just not on the same level as CP3.
+Francesco Vaccarella I would say the only player to match those skills would be Rondo. But the bad thing about Rondo is that hes not as good of a scorer like CP.
I feel like CP3 shouldn't even be rated in a top 5 pgs category anymore. He is a point god. To maintain that level of excellent play over almost 11 season is crazy. This man is on another level.
I know right I always tell people it's the consistency. When he was coming into the NBA they said Ray Felton or Derron Williams. He surpassed them, then it was Rondo, D rose, TP, Nash outlasted them. Now it's Curry, Dame, Kyrie, Westbrook. Man not saying one of those guys can't take the torch but wait more than two or three years till we crown these guys, cause when they fall off like Rose or Arenas now people call them trash when they once were crowned. Curry is great right now but 11 years like you said that's point god status.
+Dap p Fr man. I liked how you talked about the different competition chris paul has out lasted. Him vs Dwill was so heated. But Cp3 has out lasted him and others. Yet hes still producing. #pointgawd
Bulls fan here and I have to say that Chris Paul is by far the best pure point guard in the league for the last few years,it's just incredible how easy he makes everything look, definitely a top 5 player in the NBA today
ppl say that the warriors "keep passing" system is the best in the league but i always look at the way doc and cp3 run plays and uses players and im always shocked that they dont have any rings together
curry wouldn't be so good if not for his good teammates. Put him on a sucky team, and Curry won't get his numbers coz the defense will switch and double on him all the time.
I dont really mind the commercials. I want coach to do well financially so he can continue doing these breakdown. He should be paid well for these contents.
Talent wise, he is the second greatest PG in the history of this league. I think it's fair to praise this type of player regarding his style, numbers, legacy, etc... take Olajuwon for example. He is clearly the most talented big in history, still people forget about him in most cases. Shaq has an aggressive stye that I and many fans love it, KAJ has that incredible consistency and patented signature moves... They are more naturally recognisable. Still, the amount of talent that Olajuwon had was so impressive that any person can watch and see how much ahead of the competition he was. He was the best center in the golden age of the position, no other big could even scratch him. And that is CP3 nowadays. Since his very first year, the guy is a top all around player, the best PG on the golden era of the position. He had competition, guys like Deron, Rondo, Curry, etc.. Challenged him really hard for the best PG consideration. Still, all these guys had ups and downs, CP never had a down year. The only thing who stopped him was injuries, the guy can make untalented scrubs like DeAndre and Chandler look like allstars on offense, lol Even if he is a second round virgin, we can't deny how talented he is. The greatest downside of a pure Point God is that he desperatelly needs elite talent to strive. This can be applied to every position, sure, but the PG is easily the most dependable. Imagine Stockton without Malone? Or Magic without a superstar team? Isaiah without the bad boys and the defenses schemes? To be extra fair, CP is having an amazing career, but he never had a super team. In these recent years the talent around him grown substantionally, but is far to be comparable with other PG who won before him (yeha, even LeBron is in this conversation).
Sai Ramesh Magic. Not only talent wise, but pound for pound as well. If Cp is a better defender and a superior pick n' roll maestro, Magic is miles ahead considering rebounding and post playmaking. The height is a clear advantage.
People just take CP for granted. He is so consistent to a point that people think he should able to perform in a super high level every night. Seriously, he has been doing this from day 1 when he started to play in the league.
I'm reading the comments and somebody said Curry is thr point god 😂. Funniest shit I've read all day because nobody was on Curry's wave before last season so foh CP3 been doing what he's doing now best all around point guard curry only shoot 3's and sometimes drives and he's a sore loser smh I like curry because he can shoot the 3 well but he's not over Chris
Lebron James GOAT #CurryisOverrated #2FinalsMVPnot0 westbrook is the best athletic pg. since derrick is damaged goods. I see westbrook more of a short SG swingman, even though he's a pg and has many triple doubles.
I wish more people with a bigger influence on people would actually see and speak out the greatness that this guy is executing year after year, i really wish he could win the mvp award or at least get into tohe conference finals or even more
He's exactly like Jason Kidd, a basketball savant. The way they both scan the defence on fast breaks, use pick and rolls and their "pass-first" mindsets really separates them from other point guards. Both deadly defensive players as well, Jason Kidd could steal the ball from the best ball handlers and Chris Paul is arguably the best ever at doing it. Both great point guards, both very similar playstyles.
+Quez Mania I guess for today's NBA, it's ok to consistently flop on 3 pointers, but it's not ok when you're driving to the rim or trying to take charges on defence? Something's not right here...
Great video and I agree with just about everything you included. I have a question that I often wonder when I watch him, what do you think about when CP comes off a pick and roll screen and stalls the ball and doesn't attack. I tend to notice the Clippers getting in shot clock trouble when he isn't aggressive or waits to pass the ball coming off the pick and roll which forces the Clippers and usually CP to try and bail them out with a long contested jumper, which I don't believe is efficient offense.
i was expecting you to point this out, Coach; since i learned this from one of your videos. but anyway, on defense, CP3 also knows how to navigate well through screens with proper footwork (outside foot first then using that first step to explode towards the player's direction, kind of like a Euro Step)
Wow! True mastery. If Chris were two inches taller the league would be his. His instincts, decision-making, skills, timing and self-control are phenomenal.
The NBA Point Gods: Stephen Curry Chris Paul Russell Westbrook Kyrie Irving (my fav player), Kyle Lowry, John Wall, and Damian Lillard are not there yet to me, but they are all close.
The best point guard in this current leauge. He is all purpose: pass, shoot, steal, defend, dribbling and 3 points! What else can you ask for? He's also the most consistent player.
Lukas Löffler Actually, age does matter. It's age, talent, and potential. Paul and Curry are both talented, but Curry is younger and has a higher ceiling. Also, I completely misread your comment, so I ended up looking like an idiot.
I think CP3, Wall, and Westbrook are the 3 most complete PG in my opinion. They're good at making their teams better but at the same time they can be dangerous shooters if you try and take them lightly on D.
When will you do a video on the heat? That win over the cavs a few nights ago? I think they deserve attention and will be a real threat in the playoffs. Post season they have been very impressive
+Steve Salazar it is just a shame that they aren't good enough in comparison to the Spurs and GSW at the moment (especially the Clippers bench) to get CP3 his ring
Steve Salazar You're fucking dumb. He was just as good with JUST David West in NO. Paul elevates any team to the playoffs. The Clips suck ass, and their two scorers (Griffin and Crawford) are worthless.
Favorite Stat: Chris Paul is leading the all time career individual offensive rating list with 122 pts/100 possessions. Doesn't yet factor in the inevitable downward spiral thats coming towards the end of his career, but it still has to be an argument for him to be one of the very best offensive players ever.
definitely top 5 PG of all time, because he knows how to play strategy with passes, thats what lillard, wall, irving needs to learn more to utilize their teammates
I love watching CP3. Glad to see he's having another wonderful season. Its weird to think that CP3 is maybe even the third best PG after Curry and Westbrook and still a top 7 player in the whole league.
Coack, a big NBA fan and of course a fan of your videos and basketball in general from Serbia here. Could you please do a video on Milos Teodosic? He is an amazing passer and floor general, but I would like to hear someone from USA to evaluate his offense and control of a basketball game. Also i would like hear your opinion on wheather he could play in the NBA and how big of a conributor he could be. Thank you in advance for your reply.
The point guard position is evolving. PGs used to be primarily pass first. Nowadays if you're pg you gotta be exceptional at both scoring and passing. Nothing wrong with either style IMO but it makes me appreciate players like CP3 more
Chris Paul will be a monster coach one day.
That's probably where he will get a ring cos he's not getting one in OKC

I agree CP3 is a great player and probably an all time great at the PG position, but the only people who deserve rings, are the ones who earn them
"but the only people who deserve rings, are the ones who earn them" Yeah go tell that to KD
TDT He's the best player in the team, he just has people that want to pass the ball unlike his triple double friend
Hopefully he can in Houston. A big part of it would be getting Melo
If Chris Paul was on the thunder instead of Westbrook they'd have a much better chance of winning a title
+Charles WoodsonGOAT I think they would have done it by now, and KD would've averaged 35 for the last couple of seasons

The best point guard in this current leauge. He is all purpose: pass, shoot, steal, defend, dribbling and 3 points! What else can you ask for? He's also the most consistent player.
Curry always makes CP3 look like a fool on defense lmao
BIG TATER No.
But Nobody Said Nothing When He Crossed Curry Up And Made Him Fall On His Ass
Nobody can guard curry or Westbrook 1on1 so it doesn't matter
+Apollo Skywalker I highlight doesn't make you look like a fool. And CP has made Curry drop too - clean drop, not accidentally step on his foot.
***** That's only one highlight. Start watching full nba games before you start conversing with me
Constantly scanning for a better shot, until realizing he is the better shot 🔥🔥
I'd still take him over Curry to start my franchise...
+Lukas Löffler ANY DAY
+Lukas Löffler Well Curry is younger, so yeah. That makes sense.
+Jaired Link bro in the 'who would you rather take to start a franchise game' age doesn't matter at all.
Lukas Löffler Actually, age does matter. It's age, talent, and potential. Paul and Curry are both talented, but Curry is younger and has a higher ceiling.
Also, I completely misread your comment, so I ended up looking like an idiot.
+Jaired Link if they were the same age cp3 over curry 6000000%
I think CP3, Wall, and Westbrook are the 3 most complete PG in my opinion. They're good at making their teams better but at the same time they can be dangerous shooters if you try and take them lightly on D.
Shit Russell better than Steph too
i can't believe i'm saying this but where's the replay button for the ad?? lol nice kobe ad!
But no, Steph curry is the Unanimous MVP this season. Smh
sigh
He deserved it
tell me who deserved MVP over steph.. stop being ignorant
Not that he didn't diserve it, it just shouldn't have been unanimous
Tides US Notice how i said Unanimous mvp and not mvp. Can't call someone ignorant if you're the one who misunderstood my comment.
When will you do a video on the heat? That win over the cavs a few nights ago? I think they deserve attention and will be a real threat in the playoffs. Post season they have been very impressive
Too bad the rest of that team is full of ball hog losers. Love CP3, he should be on a better team.
What are you talking about the clippers are an amazing team there's a reason why they make the playoffs Chris Paul should be happy to be there
+Steve Salazar it is just a shame that they aren't good enough in comparison to the Spurs and GSW at the moment (especially the Clippers bench) to get CP3 his ring
Steve Salazar You're fucking dumb. He was just as good with JUST David West in NO. Paul elevates any team to the playoffs. The Clips suck ass, and their two scorers (Griffin and Crawford) are worthless.
mnnrlfs Spurs play team ball, Clips play me ball.
Can u do a video on how d Rose has been killin it since the all star break
Dislike, only one God in our lives, Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior
+Jeeper D lol
+Mac Tonight Moonman It's not a historical fact evolution happened either
the grammar is strong in this post
+Mac Tonight Moonman when some sees the word "theory" and thinks it automatically means theres no evidence
Favorite Stat: Chris Paul is leading the all time career individual offensive rating list with 122 pts/100 possessions. Doesn't yet factor in the inevitable downward spiral thats coming towards the end of his career, but it still has to be an argument for him to be one of the very best offensive players ever.
can someone explain why CP3 didnt pass on this play against memphis?
He should get serious MVP consideration.
What he did to the Clippers without Blake is HUGE
2:54 the "shot into lob" sound like some Kuroko type shit
definitely top 5 PG of all time, because he knows how to play strategy with passes, thats what lillard, wall, irving needs to learn more to utilize their teammates
Would you do another similar breakdown for Jason Kidd?He is definitely another great play maker and floor general.
Is there going to be a video on rose's excellent performance since the all star break
especially when chris gets the rebound and runs the transition its damn near automatic
Excellent breakdown!
Who's here after cp3 advances to his first finals trip?
I love watching CP3. Glad to see he's having another wonderful season. Its weird to think that CP3 is maybe even the third best PG after Curry and Westbrook and still a top 7 player in the whole league.
6 years later at 36 he still is!
could you upload a video on the bulls playing worse and worse since like 2011
Coack, a big NBA fan and of course a fan of your videos and basketball in general from Serbia here. Could you please do a video on Milos Teodosic? He is an amazing passer and floor general, but I would like to hear someone from USA to evaluate his offense and control of a basketball game. Also i would like hear your opinion on wheather he could play in the NBA and how big of a conributor he could be. Thank you in advance for your reply.
Where do you get the footage and what do you use to edit your videos?
Good video, thanks coach
The point guard position is evolving. PGs used to be primarily pass first. Nowadays if you're pg you gotta be exceptional at both scoring and passing. Nothing wrong with either style IMO but it makes me appreciate players like CP3 more
Awesome video! Thanks
great vid, u should do one about lbj too.
CP3 has the 6th highest career PER rating in NBA History. That's pretty special
And the highest offensive rating ever!
I’m seeing future CP3 blueprints for point guards for short players around 6’1.
Can you do a video on Illegal defense?
"mastery" when ads for The Masters are in the background haha.
yo, is cp3's last drive a travel? i do the same exact thing and get called for traveling in games. i play in high school.
Nah he gathers the ball on one foot then takes his 2 steps
HAWK OFFENSE would have been a great series for L.A. Clippers back in those days.
