cp3 told canada we got one…. i knew then
CP3 came to my spurs and turnt Wemby and Castle up frfr and look at us this year we 2nd in the West by a landslide right behind his Protege SGA the CP3 affect is real and CP3 will get his ring as a coach or a developmental coach frfr
Cp3 needs to coach a NBA team
He really said that Shai is a flopping free throw merchant? Nice!
SHAI GILGEOUS-ALEXANDER IN: 'WHEN THE STUDENT BECOMES THE MASTER' ..
Chris Paul is the STAR FOUNDATION for NBA Basketball in OKC??? Don't ever FORGET his IMPACT with the 2 Season's 2005-2007 New Orleans Hornets playing in Oklahoma City, after Hurricane Katrina! OKC proved they could FILL THE ARENA and Chris Paul's Impact Upon The OKC Community for 2 plus (Hornets) 1 more year (2019-2020) as a Thunder is unmatched!!!
No wonder steph had so much respect to CP3 when they played together. He looked happier with him around!
It’s even bigger than that. Chris Paul is a key factor in okc getting the thunder in the first place. The ownership groups saw how hungry okc was for a basketball team during the okc hornets run and im not sure if there is nearly that much excitement without Chris Paul being there from the jump.
OKC fans will forever be grateful for the 3 seasons Chris Paul graced us with.
You’ll be making this video soon for Wemby. Chris Paul will make a great “players coach” one day!
The clippers crashed out for Paul George
But the clippers did my boy extra dirty for no reason
Now let's really finish the job….and move the team back to Seattle
It was cp3’s city. Most forget the New Orleans hornets was the OKC hornets when he got drafted. The city where he started it all. The city he gave a championship to indirectly
I promise you Lou Dort could afford an iPad if he had an nba contract of any kind 😂
6:15 hahahah
Cp3 should get his name in the rafters at OKC
Heck no he not been here since he keeps on flopping like no one cares bro the refs doesn’t care cause you suck sga without no flops you will not be here
A beautiful thing .. cp3. Wow see nvr turn your back
As a lifelong OKC Thunder fan, CP3 deserves SO MUCH CREDIT for how good Thunder is today. This team still has his fingerprints all over it! Crazy he was here as brief as he was and still made such a massive impact.
Give it a break the guy leads in NOTHING 😂
Jokic out here making history, sga out here with 2 career triple doubles LOL
The only thing that limits CP3 is his built and athleticism. If he was taller and slightly more athletic. He'd be a menace.
This is lit! Great video! CP3 is special.
I knew once Cp3 got around those young guys he was molding them with so much game. By the time OKC made frequent playoff appearances I just knew after the Nuggets won that the next szn OKC had it in the bag I love it! #LoudCity #ThunderUp
Great video. However, at the end you said "his one season with OKC". Let's not forget about the Oklahoma City Hornets in 2006! He put in work for us.
When they played together, chris paul was asked to build his ideal point guard from current players, for finishing he picked said either shai or kyrie. After that I watched shai’s finishing highlights and realised why CP3 rated him so highly. I’ve been a fan of him since but I didn’t expect him to reach this level
The only reason people didn't "Listen" to CP3 is due to ring culture which existed even back then, when players especially former who have never won a ring speak on the sport they played fans automatically assume they weren't as good and their words shouldn't be taken seriously or ignored outright but as we can see Now with what SGA is doing it's clear why ring culture is flawed and fans or anyone who abide by it are foolish 😂
Someone copied your entire video lmao. They have like no views or subs but I found it hilarious. Channel name is NetBFB
whenever the NBA officials stop giving him every foul like they did with James harden
Shai is like what everyone meant when they said thank God Allen Iverson wasn't 6'6" he's got the speed with his step by crossovers! SGA is Silky no doubt!
Worst MVP choice since Steve Nash imo
Okc problem is they whole team look and sound and just overall reek corny.
Thank you Chris Paul <3
Watch a cp3 high iq moments after this he saw shai and said ima terrorize the league one last time before i go😂😂 shout out to CP3 i dont even like okc but the team chemistry the basketball iq just wow CP3 made a MARK they all lowkey play with his mindset too
I told people when he was with the clippers crazy cause hornets could of had him and melo and the clippers could have the thunder whole roster right now
Cp3 officially got his mentor badge and it make him a goat
That rebuild definitely goated nbs
