I thought paul deserved to have a ring, he is a true professional, but as i saw his expression when he left the court after game six i realised that i liked that better than him having a ring. I am petty like this, i know.

And i also love giannis getting a ring.

He's the only one to also have a MIP under his belt.

Chris Paul on Giannis’s free throw shooting…

Lol @ “true professional”

He literally led a group of Rockets to the Clippers locker room to get in a fight

Getting Steph's practice time cancelled.

Chris Paul is the number one guy I love to hate. The lynch pin of two of our biggest conference rivals over the last few years.

If I never see a ball handler run into the back of a defender and throw himself backwards again it'll be too soon.

Nope, no mixed feelings here at all.

I hope the Suns let him walk, because I actually like the rest of the team.

I've soured on Booker a little bit. Mostly because of Paul's obvious influence with the foul baiting, over the top complaining, etc.

The rest of the team is pretty easy to root for.

Everyone over the top complains now. It’s horrible. PJ Tucker throws a fit on literally every whistle. The league needs to put a stop to it.

Cameron Paynes dive to get Jokic ejected in the finals was epic level unsportsmanlike. Just a soft as butter thing to do.

I was trying to be nice. Chris Paul has made them unwatchable. And their fans all look like they drink White Claw.
