Chris Paul Is A Magician

This is a good place to start: ridiculous, entertaining, thrilling basketball ability (vid HT, of course: AA): That wasn’t even my favorite Paul drive last night. My favorite was Paul’s fake fourth-quarter pass that ...

This guy is amazing on the floor. (n/h) In case you haven’t been paying attention to the NBA playoffs this year, do yourself a favor and check out one of the New Orleans Hornets games. Chris Paul is like a wizard on the court, he gets to the hoop anytime he pleases. He has that Michael Vick-ish quality that makes you excited every time he has the basketball in his hands. Here’s a little clip from last nights game, courtesy of Awful Announcing ...
