There are some real PLAYER HATERS who watch the NBA, or at least talk about it.
Kobe this, LeBron that, Kobe that, LeBron this, Kobe who? LeBron who?
Paul led the way again for the Hornets who beat down the Hawks 116-101. Paul has been doing this all year, the Hornets have been winning all year. They are now 41-19, third best in the West and one game out of first. This is no fluke now, it's March. The Hornets are on pace to win 56 games this season. There are 22 games left in the season for them, can they do it? No doubt. They probably will.
Kobe's been great. LeBron's been great. There team's have done very well too, Kobe obviously much better than LeBron's.
Be honest, who saw the Hornets winning 56 games this year? Who saw them competing for best in the West come March?
CHRIS PAUL IS THE MVP OF THE NBA!
He's not getting near the respect he deserves for what he is doing this year. 21 points, 11 assists and 4 rebounds per game. Let's not forget about his 2.7 steals and ONLY 2.5 turnovers (at 11 assists, that's bonkers!). He also shoots 48%, 36% from beyond the arch and 88% at the charity stripe. This guy is playing at a ridiculous level, as is his team, the team he is the catalyst for.
When Nash won his two MVP's he average the same amount of assists pretty much, only 16 and 19 points per night and nearly FOUR turnovers as well.
John Stockton, Magic Johnson and Isiah Thomas never averaged near that amount of assists with under three turnovers per game, Stockton came closest at three even, but the others were all around four.
Hmmm?
I guess the Hornets will need to win 70 games this year for Chris Paul to get the award that he deserves, at this point of the season.
Drink The Hatorade People!
