The Golden State Warriors recently acquired Chris Paul in a trade exchanging Jordan Poole and some picks. This trade is still indigestible for many fans around. As it is just not possible for many to believe that Chris Paul has joined the Dub Nation after years of rivalry between them. CP3 is undoubtedly one of the biggest rivals of the Golden State Warriors. They were beefing and competing against each other for the past decade.

But now it’s a changed story and Chris Paul will try to get his first ring with the Stephen Curry-led Golden State Warriors. And, even he never expected this to roll out this way. During his recent interview with Sloane Knows he was asked for his reaction to a time traveler telling him about joining the Warriors. When he was suiting up for the Los Angeles Clippers and the Houston Rockets.

Chris Paul gave a very expected reply to it. As he quoted: “Hell naw. Excuse my language. He’ll nah. Ain’t no way. There is no way. It is so fun and kinda cool that it ain’t like a pink elephant in the room. I remember me and Steph worked out together in Vegas and a few other coaches walked in. They saw me in Warriors’ gear. And, they were like ‘This is cr*zy who would have thought so.’”

But now Chris Paul is really on the Golden State Warriors and everybody is excitingly waiting to watch him hoop in the system of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and Andrew Wiggins. Reports claim his addition was a result of a move to salary dump but it can also turn out to be a great trade bringing the dynasty days of the Dub Nation back.

The players, front office, and coaching staff are excitingly happy with Chris Paul’s addition. Everyone collectively believes he’ll help the team grow by mentoring the young core.

Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr also believe he gives the team more options on the offensive end. Something they lacked against the Lakers which caused their elimination.

Chris Paul undoubtedly is one of the best playmakers in the league and he can control the floor while scoring the bucket. There are reasons he’s called “Point God.” But so far the team is yet to decide his actual role with the guys. His status as a starter or the leader of the second unit or the sixth man is yet to be decided. And, Steve Kerr is going to try all sorts of combinations during the Dubs training camp and select the best one for the team to win.
