CP3 finally made his mark in the playoffs in the NBA when he took his team to Western Conference finals last year but failed to take them over the edge because of his injury.
Entering his 14th year in the NBA, Paul finally is a big contender to reach and win the NBA Finals. After leaving a really good roster in LA, and marking the end of 'Lob City', nobody expected Paul and Harden to be that good in Houston.
However, they were one game away from the finals. This year some may argue that Rockets are worse off than last year but one should not underestimate Chris Paul and Carmelo Anthony's desire to win a title. Also, Paul will be going all out since he has an assured $160 million in his bank account.
