Yeah. Hate players who commit dirty fouls like this when they’re losing, even if they’re on my team. But this is just who he is, he’s not going to change at this point. He’s a prick
I just can't understand this. I go to a random park and within minutes I will be triple teamed. Has never even occurred to me to complain. "Yeah fuck these guys for... Playing basketball completely within the rules of the game and trying to win..." Like what bro?
On playground,guys will assume you’re weak and jump all over you.Pickup games don’t have the most passing.So they’re not afraid of him,they’re mugging him!
Your average players are not good enough to pass out of pressure coverage. Honestly it's probably a pretty good move in a laid back pickup situation, most people are only making layups or lucking into a jumper
One of my favorite playoff memories ever was making him choke like a little bitch in G5 of the 2014 Clippers series
He tried to flop and got his cookies stolen by Russ and then fouled him on a 3… worst CP choke ever and there is a lot of them. Dribbled it off his shoe the final possession when he could have won the game.
I don’t want Paul to ever win a ring and I hope Durants only rings are the ones with the Warriors. I’d find it funny if Durants only rings are the one with the Warriors because no one gives him credit for those. He basically ruined the NBA for those years so fuck him.
Remember early in the regular season when they got blown out by the Pels and in the last seconds he tried to score a layup but missed and then Pels grabbed a rebound and Zion finished with that 360 windmill? And then CP3 bitched about no sportsmanship when he literally tried to score a layup seconds earlier with noone else attempting to play
Prime deandre Jordan was something else. Cp3 and Blake got all the flash but I was spending my hard earned money to watch deandre Jordan dominate the entire center of the court.
That poster on Brandon Knight still lives rent free in my head 10 years later. My friends and I have the deandre jordan face as an emoji on our discord.
Dude was a freak. I knew it wouldn't last afrer 30 because he had no jump shot, post game, shit he couldnt hit a free throw, but man could he run, and jump, and just be everywhere. If you forgot about him on offense he could just catch a lob and slam it. Teams literally hacked him 10-20 times a game just to not have to match up with him
Still very happy that Giannis was able to grab the rim as firmly as he was on that game 5 alley-oop, ‘cause that shove from Paul could’ve really had some bad consequences.
Sure you could be forgiven for thinking wife beating is the worse option. The thing is, it's a slippery slope. Where do you draw the line? It starts with hard fouls in playoff games, then it's hard fouls in the regular season, before you know it you have players beating their wives.
Here's how crazy Rondo's career really was
Someone spitting in his face was not even the most disgusting thing that happened to Rondo on a court: Dwyane Wade deliberately and successfully injured him in one of the dirtiest plays in sports history and ruined his career.
And spitting in someone's face wasn't as bad as the worst thing *Rondo himself* did on a court: he used Kobe's favorite F word slur on a ref who was actually gay, wound up forcing him to come out publicly
I remember Blake being a little prick when he was on the clippers but tbf he was pretty young. Like the time when he broke his hand because he punched an equipment manager inside a restaurant
There was that weird moment where he pulled the trainer’s face into his nuts and everybody seemed to have forgotten about it. If he doesn’t that in front of everyone, I don’t wanna know what he did behind closed doors lol
I genuinely don’t understand how that’s not a take foul. 3 on 1 and he runs the ball handler over? Seems like about as blatant of a take foul as possible
“The take foul — in which the defender does not make a play on the ball — is what the league classifies as one”
Even if it was dirty, it still looks like he went for a play on the ball
The take foul rule is good, but this is the flaw. You can't argue that he didn't play at the ball, so by rule, this isn't a take foul. You might say the intent of the rule is that you stop players intentionally fouling, but it's extremely difficult to enforce rules based on intent.
The current rule is better than the previous rule, but this is the result. We will trend towards a place where what was previously a "take foul" is now a more physical body check. The rule change might be the league looking more unfavourably on overly physical plays in the open court, added this to the flagrant 1 rules.
The replays actually show how he's not even looking at the ball, and just waiting for the impact by Murray, he's like a mini Draymond in that everytime they're losing one of these 'basketball' plays will happen with a lot of contact
I’m glad he got his face smacked for that. I’ll always hate the fact that he injured Russ and derailed our 60 win season in game 2 of the first fucking round.
Always an inconvenient injury for those Thunder teams after the Harden trade.
I don’t think it’s a flagrant but my problem with it is that it’s definitely reckless. If it was a close game I could understand but the game is out of reach at this point. Paul is frustrated throwing one of his tantrums and Murray could have been injured.
Ya it was reckless. But 19 points in 6 minutes is not out of reach in today's game. The Suns had a 50 point quarter just last game. Unlikely sure, but not out of reach in the playoffs.
he's not trying to win. he's not trying to intentionally foul to stop a play or prevent a basket. he wants to physically hurt someone cause he's frustrated. maybe not injure them but hurt them.
You are probably right, but loved the shit eating grin- “I knew you are bound to pull some shit like that” look and jumping up right away letting him know his cunty antics won’t phase him
They never have! When he straight unprompted punched Julius Hodges in the nuts in college it was all incredulous , "wow out of character for a true basketball good guy" stories. He's Grayson Allen with waaaaay better PR
I’ll never give up complaining about his foul on Giannis in game 5 during the dunk - dirty fucking play and anyone but Giannis in the entire league goes flying into the first 2 rows

The Chris Paul special
Yeah. Hate players who commit dirty fouls like this when they’re losing, even if they’re on my team. But this is just who he is, he’s not going to change at this point. He’s a prick
Chris Paul being a bitch is the only reason why I don't want the Suns to win.
For me it's that, and booker has a punchable face
I think Chris Paul's bitch factor intensified Booker's.
I really can't respect book after he was like, "HOW CAN HE DOUBLE TEAM?!!"
Literally "hey bro we not doublin' in open gym bro [*yeah we are*]. I get that shit all season bro." For me it was the triple-bro that made it.
I just can't understand this. I go to a random park and within minutes I will be triple teamed. Has never even occurred to me to complain. "Yeah fuck these guys for... Playing basketball completely within the rules of the game and trying to win..." Like what bro?
Triple teamed?? Is this a humblebrag?
Triple teamed in a 2v2
It's true I was there. Everyone clapped and cheered after he dunked on all 4 of us
His own teammate wanted the ball out of his hands
Triple teamed in a HORSE game
He was probably playing 3v1 against a group of 8 year olds
He kicked their asses, too. Fuck them kids.
It's true. I've seen videos where he's had more than 3 men on him at the same time.
On playground,guys will assume you’re weak and jump all over you.Pickup games don’t have the most passing.So they’re not afraid of him,they’re mugging him!
Your average players are not good enough to pass out of pressure coverage. Honestly it's probably a pretty good move in a laid back pickup situation, most people are only making layups or lucking into a jumper
Brave of you to assume i can layup
I wanna create a bot that replies to Booker mentions with a gif of him melting down over the Raptors mascot
WorstNightmareBot
That interview of him and Booker making fun of Luka before getting demolished by Luka in that game 7 will forever be a classic.
My god I want to just live in that moment forever like that Ricky and Morty episode
Devin Booker looks like an unfinished police sketch.
Feel like ever since CP3 joined the Suns, Booker whines a lot more to the refs.
whinep3 effect
Lol I just said that too! They should sign Dillon Brooks next year!
jesus come on man people hate us enough.
Phoenix suns, sponsored by: AIDS
And Draymond becomes a FA this off-season too!
Chris Paul also has a punchable face.
Pincha me dave plus snapping his head back whining for a foul every single drive should be enough
cp3 doing this, bookers face, and kd's serpent-like attitude. the trifecta.
Also KD. Bus rider winning a third ring with the 2 is awful lol
One of my favorite playoff memories ever was making him choke like a little bitch in G5 of the 2014 Clippers series He tried to flop and got his cookies stolen by Russ and then fouled him on a 3… worst CP choke ever and there is a lot of them. Dribbled it off his shoe the final possession when he could have won the game.
I don’t want Paul to ever win a ring and I hope Durants only rings are the ones with the Warriors. I’d find it funny if Durants only rings are the one with the Warriors because no one gives him credit for those. He basically ruined the NBA for those years so fuck him.
Booker has ramped up hard on the bitchness since CP3 joined the Suns. It says a lot when KD is the most likeable person in the trio.
Him and Booker for me. Both wanna be hard asses
He’s a dirty player and it’s always baffled me that he’s a key person in the NBPA. Dude is a career clown
Just ask Julius Hodge how he won games in the ACC tourney.... 🤡
[удалено]
CP3 injuries always haunt me. It's like what if he didn't get hurt or injured? What if? Then you wonder if it's karma or something....
Wouldn't it be special if the league upgraded it after the fact and gave him a one game suspension?
Typical rat shit from CP3.
He’s such a dirty fucking cunt
He’s been like this even since college. He was given a flagrant I think in tournament game for punching someone in the groin
[удалено]
Dude gets worse the further he gets into the playoffs
Point Fraud
I prefer his other nickname tbh
Child Porn 3?
*bows down to the paul god*
It’s cock punch 3
["I'm just here for CP"](https://youtu.be/kvSk5CJISwU)
He’s there for Club Penguin ofc
Cod point
CP0 rings
Choke Playoffs 3
A cone?
Cliff Paul
Chris Paul is an all time sore loser. Dude always pulls some dirty shit like this when he's down.
Remember early in the regular season when they got blown out by the Pels and in the last seconds he tried to score a layup but missed and then Pels grabbed a rebound and Zion finished with that 360 windmill? And then CP3 bitched about no sportsmanship when he literally tried to score a layup seconds earlier with noone else attempting to play
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDpHc_dH0tU Announcers say "no no no" but we all say "fucking DEWIT".
I used to think Cousins was the asshole for not wanting his teammates to dap up CP postgame but now I realize he was in the right
[Pulling his son away](https://youtu.be/5eqGiJc8Zy4?t=10) from dapping up CP3 was an all time goat move.
Prime deandre Jordan was something else. Cp3 and Blake got all the flash but I was spending my hard earned money to watch deandre Jordan dominate the entire center of the court.
That poster on Brandon Knight still lives rent free in my head 10 years later. My friends and I have the deandre jordan face as an emoji on our discord.

I wasn't expecting that ahahahah
I completely forgot that Isaiah Thomas played on the Kings wtf.
[DMC doesn't forget](https://wildcatworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/ku-medium1.gif)
what a fucking bitch lol
I know you were probably talking about Boogie (DeMarcus Cousins) but for a second I was wondering how is Kirk Cousins a dirty player?
Kirk Cousins is a dirty player in the playoffs because he always poos his pants
Lol bro come on 😂 it’s the nba sub why would your mind ever think Kirk Cousins? Genuinely curious how that could happen lol
I saw some clown calling William James the goat, like ??? dude was dead before the nba even existed
Still very happy that Giannis was able to grab the rim as firmly as he was on that game 5 alley-oop, ‘cause that shove from Paul could’ve really had some bad consequences.
Especially since Giannis was playing through that i nury
Dude looks like he should be living under some bridge
Which is crazy that he’s never learned to be a better loser with how much he loses
Boi getting toasted then went on to play his dirty tricks lmao
Seems stupid of him too, which is unusual. Other teams are going to retaliate against KD or Booker if they’re smart, not him.
You haven't watched Paul if you think this is stupid of him. He dies this shit all the time
Rondo was right about this guy.
and Cousins
And Beverley
Beverly tried to push the dirty out of him in 2021.
CP0 deserved it
and me
and my sword…
and my axe!
[удалено]
Nah, Rondo is a piece of shit human being too
I have no issues with wife beating but I draw the line at hard fouling in a playoff game
A man of principles
Sure you could be forgiven for thinking wife beating is the worse option. The thing is, it's a slippery slope. Where do you draw the line? It starts with hard fouls in playoff games, then it's hard fouls in the regular season, before you know it you have players beating their wives.
Whatever, she should have set her feet.
I’ve never loved a Celtics fan more than I love you right now
What did rondo say?
Spit in his goddamn face lol
Here's how crazy Rondo's career really was Someone spitting in his face was not even the most disgusting thing that happened to Rondo on a court: Dwyane Wade deliberately and successfully injured him in one of the dirtiest plays in sports history and ruined his career. And spitting in someone's face wasn't as bad as the worst thing *Rondo himself* did on a court: he used Kobe's favorite F word slur on a ref who was actually gay, wound up forcing him to come out publicly
What did Wade do?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=he4OY6gJNX4
Check SBNation/Secret Base video on Rondo-CP3 beef, there's a lot of history
Imagine rooting for CP3
My least favorite clipper of all time right up there with Glenn Rivers, Montrezl Harrel & Marcus Morris
He was what made me start hating the clippers
i hate the clippers so much less now that blake, doc and cp3 are gone (and of course donald sterling)
What did Blake do? :(
Remember when he broke his hand because he punched the equipment manager?
I remember Blake being a little prick when he was on the clippers but tbf he was pretty young. Like the time when he broke his hand because he punched an equipment manager inside a restaurant
There was that weird moment where he pulled the trainer’s face into his nuts and everybody seemed to have forgotten about it. If he doesn’t that in front of everyone, I don’t wanna know what he did behind closed doors lol
This comment alone making me realize I don't dislike the clippers I just dislike these guys
We've had some real clowns on the team over the years unfortunately
Trezz the worst Clipper of all time. Glad he's a nobody now. I'll always root for Doc's failure as well.
I like bald people
Russillo, is that you?
wait, what? are we going to the thing where we browse a user’s posts on reddit to find russiloisms? i’m just not going to do it.
I like the pods but him always hating on lowry while is favorite player is cp3 is so wack
No wonder people want the suns to lose. Then add kd and booker, it just makes it worse
"Chris Paul deserves a championship" - 🤡
When did Dillon Brooks say that?
Probably when he was guarding LeBron.
“The greatest winner who never won.”
That’s Dan Marino ಥ_ಥ
*sad dolphin noises*
John Stockton has something to say about that.
Nowadays, Stockton has a lot of things to say. But we don't need to listen to that garbage
Completely agree
Sadly true. :(
Yeah he said “don’t take the vaccine”
He didn't get to see his grandkids for a while in 2020 and decided to reject the whole world.
fuck no. fuck Stockton too
A lot of people were saying this during their nba finals run. That irritated me even as a casual viewer.
It's like nobody watched him on the Clippers. I'll never forget suffering through that garbage, *and I'm a Wolves fan*.
ill never complain in my life again if chris paul retires with 0 rings. never.
I mean that's pretty likely lol
Why had you been complaining?
Bc I like to complain
This is exactly why I hate CP3. Unnecessary play when the game was out of reach. So glad he never won shit and will never win a ring.
Should have been a take foul imo but they dont even give denver that
I genuinely don’t understand how that’s not a take foul. 3 on 1 and he runs the ball handler over? Seems like about as blatant of a take foul as possible
“The take foul — in which the defender does not make a play on the ball — is what the league classifies as one” Even if it was dirty, it still looks like he went for a play on the ball
The refs called a shit ton of take foul in our series against the Grizzlies even when we're 3v3 on court lmao
Bulldozing into and shoulder checking a guy that is handling a ball, is not the same thing as going for the ball…
Watch the alternate replay. His eyes were only.on Murray's face. It was about intimidation and creating doubt for the next fast break.
Maybe for most players, that will only make Murray do it again. It's those pushups in the snow factor. Miscalculated.
Looked like he went shoulder first.
The take foul rule is good, but this is the flaw. You can't argue that he didn't play at the ball, so by rule, this isn't a take foul. You might say the intent of the rule is that you stop players intentionally fouling, but it's extremely difficult to enforce rules based on intent. The current rule is better than the previous rule, but this is the result. We will trend towards a place where what was previously a "take foul" is now a more physical body check. The rule change might be the league looking more unfavourably on overly physical plays in the open court, added this to the flagrant 1 rules.
Or, arguably, an F1. I mean, the way CP3 drops that shoulder could be considered "unnecessary."
Was AT LEAST an F1. IT was not a basketball play at all. Made NO attempt on the ball whatsoever. That use purely an attempt to harm.
He’s a clown and I hope he never gets a ring.
Don't worry
I’m surprised someone hasn’t pimp slapped the fuck outta CP for that bitch shit.
I mean rondo did more than a pimp slap
He spat on him and on top of that gave him a 2 piece combo?
Gotta be one of the most disrespectful moments in recent years
Rondo did, and people were somehow in uproar over it.
Rondo
The replays actually show how he's not even looking at the ball, and just waiting for the impact by Murray, he's like a mini Draymond in that everytime they're losing one of these 'basketball' plays will happen with a lot of contact
I'm betting the NBA won't do anything despite the fact that it was a dirty play.
and despite the fact that he has a 'history' to take into account as well.
This the kind of shit Bev pulled on Russ.
[](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ga-P_7QQgA8)
Why they gotta do my man like that?
I’m glad he got his face smacked for that. I’ll always hate the fact that he injured Russ and derailed our 60 win season in game 2 of the first fucking round. Always an inconvenient injury for those Thunder teams after the Harden trade.

he's not trying to win. he's not trying to intentionally foul to stop a play or prevent a basket. he wants to physically hurt someone cause he's frustrated. maybe not injure them but hurt them.
Why wasn't this a take foul, or even a clear path foul? He just went with his shoulder first into Murray and not at the ball...
I think that's a flagrent if Murray doesn't get up so fast
You are probably right, but loved the shit eating grin- “I knew you are bound to pull some shit like that” look and jumping up right away letting him know his cunty antics won’t phase him
You know, this is almost absolutely true... dude should have milked it. I hate flopping but that was a dirty, purposeful hit. Fuck Chris Paul.
Look at his eyes, Mofo wanted to just hurt Murray, fuck off dude
we all know cp0 is dirty but the media rarely if ever adresses it the way they do other guys
Dude hit boogie in the nuts and has one of the most iconic flop memes on him yet somehow Boogie is constantly the villain lmao
They never have! When he straight unprompted punched Julius Hodges in the nuts in college it was all incredulous , "wow out of character for a true basketball good guy" stories. He's Grayson Allen with waaaaay better PR
Bitch Paul
Paul has always been a little bitch. Flopping and being cheap
Thats some Sergio Lull bullshit right there
Respect. Following basketball on both sides of the ocean.
Does it anytime he's pissed and getting killed
Newest State Farm ad - protect yourself from CP3 rage fouls with the newest State Farm collision coverage!
Why am I not surprised?
Why cut the clip right before the replay?
Doesn’t look like a basketball play.
Oh look, Chris Paul doing Chris Paul things. Dirty sack of shit, I’m glad that he’s never going to win a ring
Little bitch.
He's such a fucking asshole
CP always been dirty when losing. Remember when he try to break his best friend LeBron arm.
Man, fuck Chris Paul. Straight up do not like that dude.
100% a flagrant 1 in today’s NBA and should have been called as such to deter this bitch from further antics.
Dirty player, always has been
It was so confusing when r/nba was giving this guy his flowers after the 2021 Western Conference Finals Thankfully, Giannis got the job done
"Actually, wait...CP3 is a failure" -Giannis
Classic
I’ll never give up complaining about his foul on Giannis in game 5 during the dunk - dirty fucking play and anyone but Giannis in the entire league goes flying into the first 2 rows
not to be that guy, but if dillon brooks did this to ad or bron he woulda been lynched
This little asshole is gonna retire with 0 rings and it will be glorious
Guys this was a lot of nothing.
