But this much is clear: Paul is not retiring. He will play a 20th NBA season somewhere. “I’ll talk to my wife and my kids, my family, my support system, see what it looks like,” Paul told The Athletic. “But this isn’t (the end of my career). I know it for sure.”

So Chris Paul joins the Warriors and for the first time ever a healthy Draymond Green, Steph Curry and Klay Thompson do not make it to the playoffs. It’s almost like this was his plan all along…………… 🤣 #dubnation – 12:52 AM

It’s quite a revelation watching Kuminga try to create a shot at the end of the clock instead of CP or Podz. Warriors should look for him more in that situation. – 11:04 PM

3rd foul hurts Looney especially when one of them was 94 feet from the bucket.
Meanwhile, Loon, CP3, and Moody are the only ones who have scored for the Warriors in the 2nd quarter. – 10:57 PM

Dalton Johnson: Chris Paul: “There will never be another Blake Griffin.” -via Twitter @DaltonJ_Johnson / April 17, 2024
The only Warriors player who can come close to being as fiery as Green is Paul. Green has received his share of technical fouls and was suspended by the NBA for 12 games this season after hitting Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkić in the face on Dec. 12, 2023. But in the latter part of the season, it wasn’t uncommon to see Paul play a big brother role with Green and helped calm him down. “Chris was great,” Green said. “I’m thankful, honored and happy as hell that I got the opportunity to play with him this year, that we all got the opportunity to be teammates with Chris. That is something in a million years that I’ve said a million times that I wouldn’t have imagined. Other than winning [a championship], it couldn’t have gone any better. “I learned so much from him. I built a relationship that will go beyond whether he is here next year or not, whether I’m here next year or not. I haven’t come across many guys like that in this league. It’s just an honor to play with him. As a teammate, I hope we can continue to do what we do in these uniforms. I hope and pray that he is back and I’m back because it’s an honor having him as a teammate. The way he competes, you love going to war with a guy like that.” -via Andscape / April 17, 2024
