Chris Paul just gets smoked by BG. Agree with the commentators: he needs to be doing more of that. He’s virtually unstoppable when he does.

While the Miami Heat’s Dwayne Wade has apologized for the all-star game foul which left Kobe Bryant with a broken nose and a concussion, some people just cannot let go of the issue.
Some people are still wondering how such a foul and the resulting injuries could happen in a game where annually all the players tacitly agree to go easy on each other.
Kobe’s West teammate, Andrew Bynum said, “It was an All-Star Game. I don’t understand what that was all about. It was crazy.”
While Pau Gasol added: “I think it was out of place, out of line, for the moment and the game that it was, but I don’t think he intended to break his nose. He just fouled him kind of hard there and got his nose. But again, I don’t think it was the place to foul like that.”
Wonder if this bad-blood will somehow carry-over into the play-offs?

From “Meet the All-Stars” on > ESPN Radio.
This illuminating ESPN interview occurred before Durant’s MVP performance.
Durant’s very mature message to his teammates as the world starts ask more of him and his team: “Keep growing and have fun.”
Actually a great message to all of the ballers of the world.
