Chris Paul, who entered the league in 2005 out of Wake Forest, is without a doubt on pace for a career comparable to the all-time greats. This season, he’s continuing his climb averaging 26.3 ppg and 9.3 apg.
The 24-year-old Olympian probably gets asked what his secret to success has been since entering the NBA. Duh…it’s the shoes! This year he showcases the third installment of his CP3 Jordan’s.

CP3 has been wearing his shoes (CP3.III) all season, but they will be set for retail release in the early months of 2010. …

It was a night to forget for the Timberwolves and Clippers. It was also a night for me to forget I was watching NBA TV.
<begin rant>
Both teams were poorly outscored by halftime, to the point where NBA TV would rather show their trbl tv interview of John Schuhmann’s power rankings.

Nate Jawai led the way for Minnesota giving a solid 16 off the bench and Big Al Jefferson gave his nightly double double with 12 and 10. The Timberwolves are …

Nuggets 122, Nets 94
The Denver Nuggets (5-0) struggled in the first half against the awful New Jersey Nets (0-5).  Down one point at half, Denver turned up the heat and blew away the Nets.  The good news for the Nets was that they scored 26 points in the 3rd quarter, unlike last game where they scored 7.  The bad news, they gave up 44!  Melo had another off night shooting 8-24, scoring 22 points.  Nene, Keyon Martin, and Ty Lawson all picked up the slack scoring 16 or more. 
Chris Douglas-Roberts …

Knicks 117, Hornets 111
The scrappy Knicks were able to hold off Chris Paul’s valiant attempt to steal a win at MSG on Monday night. Paul had 32 points and 13 assists but wasn’t enough to beat a Knicks who were starving for their first win of the season.
David Lee had 28 points to lead the Knicks on a night where they had three 20 point scorers. Al Harrington,24, and Larry Hughes, 20 were the other two, leading an all around balanced attack for the Knicks.
This is the second consecutive loss …
