保罗身披球衣,总能创造奇迹。
克里斯·保罗(Chris Paul)常被称为“控卫之神”。但这不仅仅是因为他在球场上的个人能力,无论“CP3”走到哪里,他都能提升球队的水平。
2005年,保罗在选秀大会上被新奥尔良黄蜂队以第四顺位选中(就像我们最新选中的新秀斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle)一样)。
他的前六个赛季都在黄蜂队度过,帮助球队将胜率从22%提高到46.3%。
但他的第一支球队并不是他唯一的成功。保罗能让身边每个人都变得更好。
Reddit 上有一篇题为“CP3 效应”的文章清楚地说明了他的影响。
在洛杉矶快船队,他和德安德烈·乔丹(DeAndre Jordan)、布雷克·格里芬(Blake Griffin)一起创造了“空接之城”,并在保罗效力的六个赛季中,每次都打进了季后赛。
转会休斯顿后,CP3 将已经令人印象深刻的詹姆斯·哈登(James Harden)和火箭队提升到了一个新的高度,他们几乎击败了冠军级别的金州勇士队。如果不是保罗受伤,火箭队可能已经打进了NBA 总决赛。
保罗继续在雷霆队发光发热,他被交易到这里换来了拉塞尔·威斯布鲁克(Russell Westbrook)。外界原本预计雷霆队的战绩会下滑,但保罗的出色表现帮助俄克拉荷马雷霆队获得了第五名,并带领雷霆队与他的老东家火箭队大战七场。尽管他们输了,但保罗的表现依然耀眼,《体育画报》将他在雷霆队效力期间称为成功,并声称他已经“重新确立了自己作为 NBA 最优秀控球后卫之一的地位”。
2020年,保罗加盟菲尼克斯太阳队,帮助球队打进NBA总决赛,这也是他多年征战NBA后的首次总决赛之旅。
去年,他加盟金州勇士队,即使是在数据下滑、角色弱化的情況下,他仍然设法提高了旧金山的门槛。
马刺队刚刚经历了一个22胜60负的赛季,在经过一年的磨合适应维克多·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)后,他们的胜率似乎很有可能会提高。
但考虑到保罗给每一支效力球队带来的惊人数据,圣安东尼奥马刺队本赛季在他的带领下能取得多大的进步,将是一个值得关注的看点。

Open Thread: The Spurs winning percentage should improve with the addition of Chris Paul
Paul has a magic touch when he dons your team’s jersey
Chris Paul is often referred to as “The Point God.” But it is not just personal abilities on the court. Wherever CP3 has gone, he has improved the teams he has joined.
Paul was drafted 4th overall (like our newest draft acquisition Stephon Castle) in 2005 by the New Orleans Hornets.
He played with the Hornets for his first six seasons where helped improve their winning percentage from 22% to 46.3%.
But his first team is not his only success. Paul makes everyone around him better.
A post on Reddit entitles “The CP3 Effect” clearly illustrates his impact.
From the Los Angeles Clippers where he and DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin created “Lob City” and pushed their way into the postseason in each of Paul’s six seasons.
After moving to Houston, CP3 elevated an already impressive James Harden and the Rockets to the point where they nearly beat the champion caliber Golden State Warriors. Were it not for an injury to Paul, the Rockets may have made it to the NBA Finals.
Paul continued his reign in OKC, where he was traded for Russell Westbrook. It was expected for the Thunder to drop, but Paul’s impressive play landed Oklahoma City the fifth seed and the Thunder took his former Rockets team to a seventh game. Though they lost, Paul shined leading Sports Illustrated to refer to his time in OKC as success as they professed that he had “reestablished himself as one of the best point guards in the NBA.”
In 2020, Paul joined the Phoenix Suns and helped them make their way to the NBA Finals, his first ever trip after so many years in the mix.
Last year, he joined the Golden State Warriors, and even in a diminished role with statistical lows, he still managed to raise the bar in San Francisco.
With the Spurs coming off a 22-60 season, it seems most reasonable that after a year of adjusting to Victor Wembanyama their winning percentage will improve.
But with the insane numbers Paul has brought to each team he joins, it will be worth noting just how much better the San Antonio Spurs are with him this season.
