Chris Paul is a punk

[t-wizzle]

Seems like one of those small guys with the little man syndrome. If you watch him closely you will see he tries to sneak in cheap shots. Will never forget when he punched that guy in the balls back in college.

Most posters will disagree but this guy is an a-hole with anger problems.

Rate this thread on a scale from 1-5, SBR

I'll go first.....

I give it a 2.5

[baskets]

it's just typical behavior. he's a little guy among giants... he's gotta act tuff or he'll get smashed

this is basic 101. plus he's black so he's got to be that way to garner respect from other black players

you didn't know this shit?

So Steve Nash had been smashed thru his career?

[baskets]

Steve is white. He plays pc and soft.... whites and blacks have a different code in the league.

now, he's a guard. if he's a big, it's a different story.

do me a favor. name me a bunch of black guards in the league that are softies? now name me the white guys that play soft?

should be easy to do b/c there are more black players... but, for some reason, you bring up more white dudes when you do this count.


it's how the league is, bro. get your pc twist from bullshitsville.

This doesn't chance the fact that Paul really is a punk.This is his persona and that is fact.Whether that is good or bad depends on the point of view.I personally think it works for his style.

Not every small black player acts as douchy as him.He acts like a douche even when he plays against whites for the US squad on olympics and sh7t.

[baskets]

well, o/c he's a punk

I don't deny that. but most major black athletes are pricks. what's new?

anywyas, I'm now officially done

[Big Bear]

yeah business as usual. you show me an athlete who is a nice guy on the field or court and i will show you a loser.

[DemoralizdDreamr]

he seems like a doucebag

[BigDeem5]

He's great

[DOMINATER]

would that be your idea of being player of the month.He should include that look when hes finished

[Sumalia]

yeah business as usual. you show me an athlete who is a nice guy on the field or court and i will show you a loser.

I can try to name a few on top of my head-Jason Kid,Steve Nash,Tony Parker,Duncan,Pekovic,Rubio,almost all european players,D.Fisher,Dirk,Barea...if you need more I will give it another try.

[JOHON8]

You can't be a great player without ego.

[crustyme]

im sure he'll be devastated to know he wont be winning the nba's ms congeniality award again this season.

[icancount2one]

MLB has a pretty strict code of etiquette and players always seem pretty friendly to each other. I remember watching the NFL in the '90s, players would always pick each other up off the turf after a tackle, shake hands, and not show each other up with crazy celebrations after every good tackle.

Players used to at least pretend to know it was just a game and show good sportsmanship, but at the same time seem to care about more than just the paycheck.

what makes you think they are nice guys on the court. I've seen Steve Nash trip someone on the Bobcats a few years ago. And hard for me to believe jason kidd is a nice guy on te court when he beats his wife off the court.

impossible to good without a massive ego

[therealdealau]

take it back man!

[onlooker]

[Pauulzcappin]

Yeah, his attitude definitely annoys me. I'd love to see Andrew Bynum do to Paul what he did to Barea.

Well I haven't said they are angles or anything.Sure it is competition,it gets heated there,big money involved,fame etc.Sometime even the good souls do something they regret(Lowe stepping on Scola's face...totally unexpected).But you can't deny those are good,cool guys and true sportsmans.

You do see the contrast between Kid,Nash,Rubio and Stephen Jackson,Paul,Metta don't you?

[wizkid4785]

I don't understand what's so hard to digest about this guy, seems pretty average to me...

[Dtown13]

Not true buddy........Drew Brees is a hell of a person on and off the field and he is a definite winner. He is money.....

[Sick_in_the_Head]

Someone bet on the blazers tonight....

I'm not sure who you are watching but D.Fisher is no nice guy on the court. Did you see the playoff game a couple of years ago? He got suspended and fined for being a thug.

[Ghenghis Kahn]

don't get mad cause paul hit that winning shot against the sixers at your home...

[Djstucky]

I think Peyton manning and Tom Brady are pretty solid on and off the field...

[Avenger]

I've always thought so, I don't understand the nut-hugging and man-love.

at 6'3", I wouldn't say he has LMS, but he's got a chip on his shoulder.

he reminds me of Justin Timberlake, just sleazy.

[Djstucky]

I agree with the OP here...Paul is kind of punk...

[Dtown13]

I think Peyton manning and Tom Brady are pretty solid on and off the field...

Peyton for sure. Brady I'm not crazy about but he does seem to be a descent guy.

[Speedy88]

If I could have any one player for the 4th quarter of a game 7, it would have to be CP3.

who gives a fuk what his personality is like

Sensitive night at SBR?

Don't matter if they are gay or thug, just cash my tickets.

Ultimately at the end of the day this is all that truly matters...
