Pray For Chris Paul's Ankles

You got to feel bad for Chris Paul here. Not only because a 6'11, 280 pound center just put him on skates, but because it was literally impossible for him to see that coming. It's one thing for Steph Curry, or someone of the like, to make your ankles look like that of a newborn baby deer. At least you know to expect the unexpected from him. I'm not even sure if Andre Drummond crossed CP3 out of his jock or if CP3 was already falling in anticipation of the charge. I would say that the later is actually more likely. What is Chris Paul supposed to presume is going to happen when he is face guarding a center at the top of the key? A behind the back dribble was probably the last thing on his mind. In fact, he was probably just concerned with Drummond putting his nuts directly on his chin. You see that attempt at finishing the play? That was the attempt of a man that should not be trying to dribble in traffic. That's why I can't blame Chris Paul for getting embarrassed, because even Andre Drummond knew that Andre Drummond shouldn't have been doing what he did. This is like a short, white, jewish guy showing up to Rucker Park and dunking on someone during the first possession. The fact that it's unforeseen doesn't do anything to soften the blow to a man's ego, but at least it can help him sleep at night knowing that it could have happened to literally anyone else too. 

At least Blake did what Blake does, and potentially made people forget that his All Star point guard got put in a blender by a player as tall and uncoordinated as the man that joins him in the Clippers starting front court...
