NBA 2018-19: Top 10 point guards going into the new season

#3 Chris Paul

Houston Rockets v Golden State Warriors - Game Four

The Point God, contrary to the air everyone has generated around his newly signed supermax contract, is currently playing as well as ever, even if it doesn't show up on his box score stats. Indeed, rarely, if ever, have we seen two Hall of Fame facilitators mesh as well as CP3 and Harden have in the one season that they've played together in H-Town.

CP3 balled so hard in the Western Conference playoffs last season that every single basketball fan felt terrible about his hamstring tear in Game 5 of the Conference Finals - an injury that potentially prevented him from making his first bow in the NBA Finals against LeBron James.

Despite having lost the athleticism he had in his first 3 campaigns, Paul has been a model point guard for the modern NBA while retaining an age-old style of point guard play. His passes, crossovers and nutmeg moves are still giving defenders nightmares across the league.
