    If Portland is top 4 this year, then they gotta start playing better defense asap.

    I didn't hear one thing in there that made me think he is a bad teammate; I would love to have a guy like Paul or a healthy Isiah Thomas on my team. Almost sounded like Martin was saying it was selfish for Paul to get a lot of assists by spreading the ball around because he should be focusing on feeding a star player.

    I don't give a flying fuck whether or not he comes off as a bad teammate or not. That wasn't my point at all.

    Isaiah Thomas could be a politically savvy, colluding influence on a team. He still won two championships. The only thing I said was just how much some of what players have commented on about CP3, reminds me of Isaiah Thomas. That's it.

    Who gives a freak about either one? It's hilarious seeing how some people want to argue over spit. :lol:

    Should loosely apply to CJ and Jimmy.

    I am sorry but Jimmy Butler is nowhere near the talent that Kawhi is. (to be fair, DeRozan is better than CJ, so there's that).

    Exactly. Jimmy ain’t Kawhi and CJ ain’t Derozan. Similar situation though.

    Man. That quote is great. Almost Ibrahimovic - like.

    "He is great for many reasons but also because he brought Toronto the wonder that is Kawhi!"
