Career Playoff Averages:
•20.9 PPG
• 8.3 APG
• 2.1 SPG
• .581 TS%

STATS DO NOT TELL THE WHOLE STORY

LOOK AT THE CONTEXT

CP3s stats go up basically every single postseason.

I don’t even know how this narrative started, Chris Paul is statistically one of the most clutch players in league history.

“he doesn’t have any rings”

this is a team accomplishment. Chris has always performed his heart out in the playoffs. His teams have been injured or just straight up outmatched in the West.

I’m gonna move on into each of his individual post seasons to show how braindead and delusional this narrative is.

2006: Rookie season, outside of CP3 this roster was stinky and missed the playoffs.

2007: young CP missed the playoffs again.

2008: CP3 had an MVP season and led the Hornets to the 2 seed in the west.

Is his first postseason he played amazing:
• 24.1 PPG
• 11.3 APG
• 2.3 SPG
• .565 TS%
• .289 WS/48

The Hornets were bounced by the Spurs in 7. In game 7 CP put up 18-14 and 5 steals on good %.

2009 CP had another all time great season and the Hornets finished the year with 49 wins in a competitive West.

PS averages:
• 16.6 PPG
• 10.4APG
• 1.6 SPG

NO bounced in 5.

Game 5 CP3 stats:
12-10- 3 steals

This is the worst series of CPS career.

However in 2009 he was seen as the underdog against a great Nuggets team. The help around him also struggled.

2010 Chris had a knee injury in the RS and the Hornets missed the playoffs in the ridiculously competitive West.

2011 NO wins 46 games and plays against the Kobe led Lakers.

This was one of the best series of his career. He put up:

• 22 PPG
• 11.5 APG
• 1.8 SPG
• .242
• 67 TS% this is not a typo.

However Kobe and Pau were too much for NO without Tyson. Losing in 6.

2012 was the 1st year of Lob City. Clippers finished 5th in the West.

PS stats:
• 17.6 PPG
• 7.9 APG
• 2.7 SPG
• .53 TS%

Swept by SA in round 2.

Game 4 stats for CP
23-11-2 steals on good efficiency.

His stats took a small hit playing with Blake Griffin.

2013 Clips got the 4 seed with 56 wins.

PS stats:
• 22.8 PPG
• 6.3 APG
• 1.8 SPG
• .633 TS%

Lost in 6 to Grizzlies.

Game 6 CP3 stats:
28-8-1 steal on amazing shooting. Blake Griffin was injured leading to the Clippers loss.

2014 Clips won 57 games putting them as the 3 seed.

PS stats:
• 19.8 PPG
• 10.3 APG
• 2.8 SPG
• .583 TS%

Lost to OKC in 6. KD went completely unconscious this series leading to the OKC win.

Game 6 CP3 stats:
25-8-2 steals on good shooting.

2015 Clips got the 3 seed.

PS stats:
• 22.1 PPG
• 8.8 APG
• 1.8 SPG

Lost in 7 to Houston in round 2.

Game 7 CP3:
26-10-4 steals on good efficiency yet again.

VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE CP3 hit a buzzer beating game winner in game 7 against the Spurs in round 1 this year.

2016 Clips got the 4 seed.

PS stats:
• 23.8 PPG
• 7.3 APG
• 2.3 SPG
• .575 TS%

Bounced in 6 to the Blazers in round 1.

CP3 missed games 5-6 with injury. So this is basically a wash.

2017 Clips got the 4 seed

PS stats:
• 25.3 PPG
• 9.9 APG
• 1.7 SPG
• .592 TS%

Lost to Utah in 7. This series is brought up a lot by the idiots that say CP is a choker.

Blake Griffin got injured in game 3 leaving CP as the only star against this Jazz team

It’s a miracle this series went 7 games.

Game 7 is brought up a lot by idiots that call him a choker

Chris carried the team in game 6 with 29-8-2 in good efficiency and lots of key baskets.

Against the number 1 defense a lone CP3 struggled. SHOCKER.

2018 in Houston as the 1 seed

PS stats:
• 21.1 PPG
• 5.8 APG
• 2.0 SPG
• .565 TS%

Lost to the Super team Warriors in 7. CP3 did not play as he had a hamstring injury in a game 5 win. Nothing he can do here.

2019 Houston is the 4 seed.

PS stats:
• 17.0 PPG
• 5.5 APG
• 2.2 APG

Lost in round 2 to the Warriors.
Chris Paul had a AMAZING game 6.
27-6-11 rebounds on great efficiency. They lost to a super team what is he supposed to do.

2020
