I am not a fan of the dude, but at this point I have to give him props... If I had to start a team with a PG it would be him. That step back shot last night was clutch... They've had a gew tight games lately and I have watched the end of them on NBA leaguepass, dude is clutch.

I hope he does not get that last piece that he needs because it could be trouble for the heats in the future.

Because that's all that matter when comparing players...

Not at all. Just cp3 is living off taking NO to the 2nd round 4 years ago, while D Rose has been killing it every year since. Did you see what happened when they went head to head earlier this year? Rose dragged him.

If I were starting a team from scratch and had my pick of the two I'd probably take Rose. Paul would be a sentimental favorite because I grew up watching him play, but Rose is just lethal. Interesting this morning that Skip Bayless said he'd take Kyrie Irving over Rose right now. But, you know, it's Skip so whatever.

I see you are from Chicago/midwest so you have to be a bit biased but you can't truly believe Rose is a more complete PG than Paul.

Paul is a better shooter, distributor, and plays better defense. Rose is electric and finisher around the rim. He is a great penetrator as well. But there is nothing wrong with saying CP3 is a more complete PG.

To be honest, I didn't see the game.

But I have seen enough of either of them to know that CP3 is more well rounded. That doesn't take anything away from Rose.

He's a fantastic player. Chris Paul is clearly a more complete point guard, rose a better scorer. Chris should have won the MVP a few years back when Kobe did.

Yeah he just happened to have his best year during Kobe's peak years.

After a game winning shot last night, Rose is the opposite of clutch tonight. He couldn't buy a basket down the stretch during this close game. Believe he didn't score a point in the 4th from the field and missed a FT late to cut it to 3. Had a bad shooting night as well but never considered him a good shooter.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
