That Time Chris Paul Memorized An Eye Chart To Try And Cheat A Vision Test
Chris Paul got eye surgery this summer, a vision-enhancing procedure he needed for some time. It’s hard to believe that one of the best point guards of his generation got by without perfect vision for so long, but he apparently did. Paul’s brother and father got their eyes fixed during Paul’s rookie...
NBA Players Union Votes To Pay For Health Insurance For Retired Players
The NBA players union announced today that they would begin funding health insurance for retired players who have played at least three years in the league. The deal is the first of its kind in major American sports, which makes sense given that the NBPA is in a very healthy position, especially in ...
LeBron, Carmelo, Wade, CP3 Open ESPYs With Statement On Gun Violence
The members of the infamous Banana Boat crew have been a few of the most politically vocal major athletes of their generation. Back in 2012 LeBron James and Dwyane Wade led the Miami Heat in wearing hoodies in protest of Trayvon Martin’s death, and last weekend Carmelo Anthony used Instagram to call...
Clippers Lose Chris Paul And Blake Griffin For The Rest Of The Playoffs
The Clippers are currently tied at two in their series against the Trail Blazers, but the rest of those games are going to be tough. Chris Paul and Blake Griffin won’t play in any of them....
Report: Chris Paul Has A Broken Hand
Hours after Stephen Curry was officially diagnosed with a sprained MCL, the Clippers’ Chris Paul left the game and has reportedly been diagnosed with a broken hand. As you can see, he bent it while guarding the Blazers’ Gerald Henderson....
J.J. Redick's Game-Winner Was Made Possible By Chris Paul's Nutmeg Inbounds
So this is a game-winning shot by J.J. Redick (at least one Dookie had a good night), but it’s not even the most impressive thing in this clip. Watch it again, and pay attention to Chris Paul’s inbounds pass. He is being guarded by 6'11" Mason Plumlee, who was brought into the game specifically to d...
Chris Paul (Accidentally?) Hits Kevin Durant In The Huevos
That’s a pretty sneaky nut shot if it’s intentional, but when you are known for repeatedly hitting other players below the belt, you aren’t really afforded the benefit of the doubt....
DeMarcus Cousins And Chris Paul Are Still Going With The NBA's Most Vertically Offset Beef
Boogie Cousins and Chris Paul are probably the two most easily riled up dudes in the Pacific Division, so even though they don’t play the same position, it makes sense that they could very well find themselves beefing. They’re pretty good foils for each other, all told: both guys play with an unveil...
Danny Green Gets Deked By Chris Paul <i>And</i> Dunked On By DeAndre Jordan In One Play
The Spurs lost to the Clippers last night in L.A., 105-86. In typically passive-aggressive Spurs fashion they managed to deflate the game before it happened, holding out Kawhi Leonard with “calf tightness,” so who the hell knows what the result means. Probably nothing. That probably does not make Da...
Chris Paul Throws His Body In Front Of Hack-A-Jordan Attempt
Here’s a moment from last night’s game between the Clippers and Celtics, in which Clips point guard Chris Paul invents a great way to short-circuit the Cetlics’ attempt to deploy everyone’s least-favorite NBA strategy:...
Chris Paul, Steph Curry, Carmelo Anthony, And Joakim Noah Star In Anti-Gun Violence Ads
Everytown for Gun Safety, an advocacy group that seeks to end gun violence in America through stricter gun control laws, has cut a series of ads with NBA stars Chris Paul, Steph Curry, Carmelo Anthony, and Joakim Noah. ...
Kevin Durant Jumper With 5.8 Seconds Left Tops Clippers In Thrilling Finish
Kevin Durant hit a tough jumper over Luc Mbah a Moute with 5.8 seconds left to help the Thunder top the Clippers, 100-99. And just for good measure, he blocked Chris Paul’s attempted game-winner too. ...
Andre Drummond And Chris Paul Star In A Very Fun Basketball Play
There are two things that are wonderful about this play. The first, most obvious thing is Chris Paul getting napped by a behind-the-back dribble from Andre Drummond, of all people. The second thing is Drummond, who is a fun player precisely because he plays like a BattleMech that’s got a few bugs in...
The DeAndre Jordan Standoff Will Be Won With Emoji
DeAndre Jordan’s having second thoughts about where he wants to sign, so now the Mavericks and Clippers are standing at either side of him, clapping and telling him to walk to them. Dallas thought it had an agreement with Jordan, but now the Clippers are making a desperate second effort. The Maveric...
LeBron, Wade, And CP3 Are Riding Around The Bahamas On A Banana Boat
Here is a photo, taken from Dwyane Wade’s Instagram, of Wade, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Paul, and LeBron James drinking some fine wine together in the Bahamas. My two questions: would you wear a t-shirt with your own nickname on it, and is Carmelo a bit faded?...
Report: DeAndre Jordan Was Sick And Tired Of Chris Paul
DeAndre Jordan signed a four-year, $80 million contract with the Dallas Mavericks over the weekend, ditching a playoff team for one that’s basically turning over its entire roster. That may seem like a strange decision, but Jordan will have two things going for him in Dallas—a more prominent role in...
Chris Paul Is Up To His Old Tricks: Tapping Nuts And Dominating Games
The Clippers and Trail Blazers were locked into a fierce battle in Portland tonight, as the two teams were tied (along with the Spurs) for fourth place and the all important (though apparently not for the Clippers) home court advantage in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs. ...
Hey Steph, Stop Being Mean To Chris
Seeing Stephen Curry drop defenders isn't exactly new, but Chris Paul is one of (if not the) best point guard defenders in the league! This does not happen to him very often....
Chris Paul Will Help You Clown Yourself
Last night, in Oklahoma City, Chris Paul turned the Thunder into a Swiffer. Attach all the necessary caveats to that, of course—it's just one game; the Thunder were without Kevin Durant and the helpful version of Serge Ibaka who used to exist before somebody decided he needed to become Walt Willi...
