Another great article on Chris Paul and the Hornets. I love these quotes from Byron Scott:
"I tell people all the time, I'm so blessed and fortunate to be able to coach these guys because they just don't give me problems. Whatever I ask them to try to do, they go out there and try to do it. There's no conflict with me yelling at one and him yelling back. It's like a dream job. Its unbelievable, really, and I think a lot of it has to do with the way they've been raised."
and
"He [Paul] thrives having the ball in his hands, he loves being the creator," says Scott. "His first year he looked at me all the time; his second year he looked at me all the time. I finally had to tell him his second year, 'You know the offense as well as I do. Figure it out. Just call something.'"

I still thank the basketball gods every day that CP3 fell to the 4th pick in the draft and was the 2nd PG taken
