On the morning of November 3, Beijing time, the Suns will meet the Pelicans at home. Currently, Chris Paul's career total assists have reached 10,328. He is preceded by Mark Jackson and Steve Nash, with Mark's career assists totaling 10,334 and Nash's 10,335. That said, as long as Paul has 8 or more assists in the next game against the Pelicans, he will have his career record night!
Like LeBron James, who is also a banana boat brother, Paul is also among the 75 biggest stars in the NBA, a well-deserved active legend. Every appearance we see in the last years of his career is actually a testimony to the legend, Chris Paul after retiring, of course, will enter the Hall of Fame, NODOUBT! In the new season, Paul still maintains excellent form in terms of organizing the team and assists, averaging 10.6 assists per game. That said, if Paul maintains a normal level of play, he can overtake Steve Nash to third in assists in the game against the Pelicans. Today, Paul plays for the Suns, and Nash is the suns' star, not to say that it is a legacy, but it is also a wonderful thing.
The Pelicans, who are rivals, have not performed well this season. With home star Cain Williamson sidelined by injuries, the Pelicans had to rely on Ingram to support themselves. This season's Pelicans, opening with a 1-6 record, their defensive performance is also full of holes, averaging 111 points per game. Faced with such a defense, Paul's organizational ability can easily penetrate the Pelicans' defense, and it seems that Paul is close to his career night.
It's worth mentioning that Chris Paul was selected by the Hornets with the fourth overall pick in the Class of 2005, and he accompanied his old club from Oklahoma to New Orleans, where he stayed for six full years. The New Orleans Arena witnessed Chris Paul's rookie period of not being afraid of tigers and forging ahead, witnessing his brilliant season of challenging Kobe's MVP throne with a steel cannon-like body, and witnessing the loss of his playoff defeat of "58" points. In the Hornets, Paul suffered an injury, which made Paul lose his strong explosiveness and bounce, but did not hurt Paul's ball sense and ball quotient, Paul changed his playing style under the influence of injury, but the team also had concerns about his injury. In 11 years, Paul and the Hornets got together and went to the Clippers to start a new career. The Hornets have now changed their name to the current New Orleans Pelicans.
Six years of Clippers career is like an illusion, No matter how hard Paul tries, he can't seem to touch the floor of the Western Conference, and the fate of the second round of many years surrounds Paul like a nightmare. In the two years of the Rockets, harden and Paul's combination finally allowed Paul to step into the Western Conference Finals, and against the Utah Jazz, Paul scored 41 points in the seventh to personally break the nightmare. After 8 years of dreaming in the West, this dynasty has finally come true.
However, the beginning of the story is always beautiful, the end is not as expected, the injury plagued Paul's poor performance in the rocket's second year, the outside world's doubts, the contradiction with Harden, the insult of the boss, Paul with a 40 million contract was swept out by the Rockets. The year of the Thunder was the year of Paul's rebirth, the Thunder team that wanted to be rotten stepped into the playoffs under the leadership of the old man, and Paul's key ball seemed to reach the peak that year, and he also washed away the shame brought by the Rockets and found himself back. Now, he has joined the Suns, the excellent team atmosphere and teamwork made them reach the finals last season, although they lost to the Bucks, the story of this season is still being written!
"The old man talks about juvenile madness, will draw a bow like a full moon, look northwest, shoot the wolf" Chris Paul's 37-year-old body still retains the heart of the teenager.
