Chris Paul carry not called

That's why, despite his greatness, I hate him as a player. He's constantly seeking out contact in order to flail/exaggerate it, even in the most elementary, run-of-the-mill situations.

He could have a breakaway layup with a clear path and he'd slow down/alter his course just to seek someone out to careen into and lobby for a fake foul (that he'll often get in the NBA).

This is 100% garbage.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and are free to like or dislike any players in the NBA or the league itself. But things like the OP and the post above just irritate the hell out of me.

No carry, no push off, just a great game winning play by Paul.

And the post above is just so far removed from reality I don't know what to say. I will say that I have tremendous respect for Chris Paul and what he is able to do at 5'10 in a league full of athletic freaks, most of whom have anywhere from half a foot to a foot height advantage on him.
