Oh, so he fell off in just one season because D-Will joined the team in the 2005 season lol...Kirilenko was still a very good player when Deron came to the team
>
>>-Boozer (made several all star teams)
>
>and you see how he's looking now without Deron...

he was a 20/10 player BEFORE D-Will joined the team in case you forgot
>
>and you coulda stop right there...

>>-Ronnie Brewer
>>-C.J. Price
>>-Paul Milsap
>>-Mehmet Okur
>>-Kyle Korver (amongst the best 3 pt shooters in the league)
>>-Raja Bell
>>-Devin Harris (very solid player who can play both guard

>>-Derrick Favors

>>Ok, now here's some of Paul's teammates starting w/the 2008

bwahahaha how many ALL DEFENSIVE TEAMS did he make while in New Orleans? ok

>>-Bobby Jackson (role player)
>>-David West (1x all star team)
>
>West was 2X All-Star, not that you let anything like FACTS get
>in your way...

ok, 2x he made it and he was the best player Paul has played with which should tell you why no one holds it against him that he couldn't get past the elite teams in the west. Boozer in Utah>>>>>>West

>>-Jannero Pargo (role player)
>>-Mo Peterson (role player)
>>-Peja (past his prime at this point)
>
>former multi-All-Star and MVP candidate who was key role
>player later for Dallas title team

the key word in your statement is "former"....he was a shell of himself in New Orleans lol...and there you go lying abt him being the key role player on that Mavs team...Jason Terry/JJ Barea want to have a word w/you
>
>>-James Posey (stole money from the organization/last seen on
>a
>>milk carton)
>
>Key role player on 2 different title teams before coming to
>NO

yeah, but dumbass we ain't talking abt what he did prior but how he played while in NO...and he didn't do anything memorable while he was there which is why they practically GAVE HIM AWAY to the Pacers. GMs bought into his exaggerated defensive ability while in Boston and OVERPAID him 25 million (did he ever average at least 15ppg in his career?)

>>-Treva Ariza (role player)
>
>and Key role player on a championship squad
>
>>-Emeka Okafor (never materialized into the player he was

>still a better than average big man

yeah oh lmao...Paul should have gone to at least 5 WCF w/Okafor
>
>>-Carl Landry (yep role player)

>another pretty good role player that have averaged in

you tryin too hard...

>Jefferson/Devin
>>Harris)
>
>lol, just stop it

Again, which of the two has played w/the better, more accomplished players? David West is the ONLY player besides Paul to make an All Star team in NO...and most ppl wouldn't even say he was an elite player then. Just like you try and credit Boozer's success w/D-Will, even though Boozer was putting up numbers pre-D-Will which is why Utah paid him that huge contract, the same can be said of West who hasn't had nearly the same success he did playing w/Paul
