Chris Paul has been washed for a couple of years now…the fact he was still playing is ridiculous

That’s a lot of “umms” for someone who “didn’t have a side” LMAOOOO FOH

Im no rocket scientist but “not on talking terms with Ty Lue for SEVERAL weeks”. Isn’t several at least 4? So a month at least? So since like game 3? Lol

SAS not wanting to callout Lue is the real problem

Chris Paul just another greedy old garbage that refused to retire on time.

I think the clippers did the right thing. Chris is too old to keep playing

Nah SAS ripp Kawhi apart, deservingly 😅 going to play in the Olympics while not playing at your ACTUAL job is wild. That’s like me missing work over n over and asking for a raise 🤣

CP shoulda retired 2/3 years ago. SAS is so biased, if it was another player he wouldn’t go at em like this… don’t let Ty Lou off the hook bro!

As a Pelican fan, I would like to nominate Zion Williamson. He’s more deserving of that HoF
