Is the arrival of veteran point guard Chris Paul on the San Antonio Spurs roster enough to make them a playoff team? Over the course of the Point God’s career, Paul has raised the winning percentage of every ball club he’s joined considerably.
Of course, some of that can be attributed to the overall direction of those franchises when CP3 joined them, but the veteran floor general’s professionalism and calm demeanor has also played a role. And depending on what one considers “making the playoffs,” it could very well be on the table. We have our doubts that the Spurs could make the full playoffs outright with a top-six record in the West, but sneaking in via the play-in tournament seems very reasonable with Paul on the team.
For a ball club in the mix for the worst regular season records in the NBA last season, that’s a HUGE leap forward, and the folks behind the “TSR Sports” YouTube channel laid out what they think of such a possibility on a recent episode of their show.
