View Full Version : Where Does Chris Paul Rank Among All Time Greats without a Ring?

It now seems clear Paul will never win a ring, at least as an impact player. He could theoretically win one as the last guy off the bench in his final season. So instead of joining the true greats like Jordan, Jabbar, LBJ, Bird, Magic, Wilt, Russell, KD, Kobe, etc. he'll join the other, not as appealing list that includes, Barkley, Malone, Stockton Baylor, Iverson. Where does Paul rank among ringless greats? Just off the top of my head I'd say he ranks behind Barkley, Malone, Baylor and maybe even Iverson.

just behind barkley and malone. Yes i'm taking him over Stockton, Payton, Kidd. I'm not as sure about Nash. Know enough about baylor to know west was usually the best player on those lakers teams.

Not top 50. Not an all-time great. He is all-time very good.

He's not an ATG and not even particularly close.

As mentioned above, he's just historically very good.

Very, very high for point guards

People don't want to acknowledge how good he is because he is a prick.

So many terrible takes in here. Typical ish retard logic. You don't have to like him, but to try and argue he's not an all time great just makes you look fooking stupid.

Apart from the “Big 3” (LeBron, Kobe, MJ) , the player who gets saddled with the worst and dumbest takes on this board just might be CP3.

This is stupid what has he accomplished to be an all time great? No MVP

Except Paul was much better than all five of those players with a much bigger impact. Anyone who knows anything about basketball has him no worse than top 30 all time. Also, what has he he done? Well, he single-handedly eliminated your Championship Spurs on one leg.
He knocked the Spurs out one year...that's his sole accomplishment. :bowdown:

Lillard has done this twice now, so this moves CP0 further down. Sorry.

Top 30....:roll: :roll: :roll:

The biggest prick is legitimately the goat MJ himself. That isn't the reason.

At least with Harden there’s actual instances of his play tapering off badly on a consistent basis in the playoffs. CP3 tho? Dude has been an elite playoff performer. But his teams haven’t won a ring so “DUH HYUK HE CHOKED DURRRRRRR!”

Besides that 80% of this board is full of retards that don't know anything about basketball in general, people also let their dislike of a player poison their view.

What makes someone an all-time great anyway?

Kyrie Irving not only has a championship, but completely outplayed the unanimous MVP and hit a gamewinning shot in a game 7.

Why isn't he considered an all-time great? How come nobody has him as a top 5-10 PG of all-time?

Chauncey Billups won a Finals MVP, a ring, went to two finals, 7 straight conference finals. He was one Robert Horry shot away from winning two straight Finals MVP's.

CP3, John Stockton, Steve Nash could've never done that. Yet Chauncey is ranked below them. People don't even have him as a top 10 PG.

All-time rankings make no sense.

I don't like the guy and his flopping ways but he is clearly one of the greatest PGs of all time. I would put him in the top 10 for PGs easily.

Barkley and Malone are, but after that it's debatable.
