Are we aware that so far Chris Paul only has....

4 games of 20+ points?

GSW
@ Portland
NOH the 1st time
Minnesota

5 other games of 18-19....as i don't want to differentiate between one layup or so.

wow.
1. really doesn't have to score.
2. doesn't have to play 4th quarters.

i honestly don't care how much he shoots - i just want the threat of him scoring to be there.. when he gets aggressive, all i want is hard drives off the pick n roll, paint touches and the threat of him scoring to be there.

all i care about from him is fg%, ft%, 3s, rebs, ASTS, STLs and turnovers.

other than that i don't really care how much he scores and we're winning. But he was my first pick in my fantasy so i expect stats.

He affects the game in other ways. Our team is so deep that we really don't need 20+ from him each game but the assists, rebounds and steals avgs make up for that extra 5 pts he's not scoring.

He's saving his 20+ games for the playoffs

This is what fascinates me so much about our team this year.

Our depth = CP3 numbers down a lot, we know he dominates in the 4th and that's when his stats/points really increases but this year I'd love to see how many 4th quarter mins he's played in the last month for example.

As long as we win and everyone is contributing, I'm good. Blake's #'s are down too, but who cares. We have more W's this season than in past years; I don't care who scores as long as the Clippers win!

The more he conserves his energy, the better he will be come playoff time. We don't want him over exerting himself, getting banged up, and then having to play a strained groin or busting finger.

That's the great part about having this bench. They can handle their business and help keep Paul fresh for when we'll really need him. You can even argue that Bledsoe should be getting more minutes on a regular basis, unless we really need Paul out there. He's just not getting enough minutes IMO.

There's nothing better than when BOTH occur in a game.

His impact is felt regardless of his point total.
