There will be no Cp3 slander. Mad dog couldn’t even come up with a name lol. He said pure point guard. However Cp3 will have to go off to get by the pelicans.

CP3 is not the best PG

Steven A sayin curry is not a pure point guard makes me sick
Jonathan Dupree
April 20, 2022 at 3:44 pm
he meant it as a pure floor general at the point guard position which in that instance there is no better floor general playing point guard than cp3
Tyler west

That’s facts curry a scorer draymond really the point guard for the warriors

Chris Paul may have the IQ and experience, but in terms of orchestrating their team’s offense, Trae Young and Luka are up there with CP3. Why should they be punished if they can also score?
DragonX30
April 20, 2022 at 2:12 pm
He is talking about a floor general who focus more on passing and setting up plays not a scorer who focuses on shot creating

CP3 would’ve actually made use of Porzingis unlike Luka lol.

Wallmart Skip Bayless needs to tone it down a bit.
Dan Meskill

It’s actually the other way around. Mad dog has been the face of sports talk radio for over 30 years. He has a much higher net worth than Skip Bayless, more famous than skip bayless. If anything Skip is a Walmart version of Mad Dog.

Mad Dog is literally the Payless version of Skip Bayless, who is a Walmart Brand himself.

If you think this then you don’t know Mad Dog. Mad dog has been the face of sports talk radio for over 30 years. He has a much higher net worth than Skip.
