What do Chris Paul, James Harden and Joel Embiid all have in common? Theyre among the many basketball players still waiting on an NBA championship win.
Despite not having a ring to show for it, CP3 has rightfully earned the reputation as a clutch performer.
Since going to the Clippers with the No. 1 overall pick in 2009, Griffin has racked up a treasure trove of awards including Rookie of the Year, six All-Star nods and five appearances on the All-NBA team. He now finds himself playing under Doc Rivers following a trade that sent Harden and Paul Millsaps to Philadelphia in exchange for Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Andre Drummond and two first-round picks. The 76ers are up 2-0 on the Raptors and now have to head to Toronto, hoping to close out the series.After suffering back-to-back first-round losses in 2014 and 2015, the Toronto Raptors started to establish themselves as a force in the Eastern Conference with DeRozan at their helm.
In his first playoff appearance, Booker nearly went all the way, losing to the Bucks in six games in the NBA Finals. The Suns are back with a loaded roster, the best record in the NBA and one more year of experience under their belt. However, a hamstring injury in Game 2 of the first round against the New Orleans is expected to keep him out at least the next two games. Can Booker return to cap off his meteoric rise with a championship? Only time will tell.
Three years later and the 76ers and Raptors are facing off once again. Philadelphia maintains a 2-0 lead over Toronto and will look to avoid the events of the past.As a lifelong Thunder fan, this one pains me to include. But Russell Westbrook is quickly approaching Chris Paul on the list of veteran players to not have a championship to their name.
