Wow, CP3 said he thinks Vasquez is on his way to being an all star. High praise from the best PG in the NBA.

Yeah, I caught that too... Very interesting. Vasquez has really stepped his game up the last couple of games. I love the way he is playing right now. If he can give us this consistently, he and Rivers at the point is 100% okay with me. I think our main focus should be upgrading the SF or C position. An elite SF, though, would put this team over the top.
Just want to say how impressed ive been with Roberts play this season. He comes in and does his job night in and night out, and if his shot keeps on staying consistent then I have no problem with him staying on this team for this year and the next.
Great win tonight! Hope Gordon is understanding that he can put that team on another level when he´s playing! Plus Davis! Imagine the Clippers suck this season and CP3 comes back home! This team would be too good!
the actual Quote is: “They’re a team that people would say isn’t very talented, but they’re well coached. I watch them play every game, and one thing about Monty [Williams], is if you play for him you’re going to play hard. If you watch their games, they’ve been in overtimes and only had a couple of blowouts. Grievis Vasquez was feeling good tonight. I think he’s on the way to his first All-Star game. With them playing like that, we can’t wait until the fourth quarter to turn it on.”Originally Posted by LouisianaPride
"I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

all star Greivis... obviously wont be but does make you wonder what some people on here expect, cops it most games on the forum
More game pics.
I watched that game until 3 this morning and did some laughing at Jason Smith and how it looked like he was enjoying the heck out of himself. After that little tussle with Matt Barnes Jason was staring him down like "you must not know who I am".
Welp,
I think we expect what coach expects. Monty said this after the game: " Obviously, guys had big numbers: Jason [Smith], Austin [Rivers] off the bench, and Greivis [Vasquez], with his double-double, almost had a triple-double with the turnovers. "
I don't even care about what he said talent wise cuz lets face it....right at this moment (no AD or EG) its true. What speaks volumes is that he watches every Hornets game....and he knows how well coached the Hornets are, how hard they play and how they commit on D. CP3 has always appreciated all of those things and he still is close to Monty.
To me it speaks volumes of what he thinks about that coaching staff in L.A. I may be reading into it too much but...he seems to really not like the fact that HE has to be the only person to really push the rest of the team when it should start with coaching. When CP3 was here with Monty one thing we were was consistant. That roster was not talented especially not as talented as we are right now...but we got to the playoffs and gave the Lakers a run with pretty much a CP3 running a D-League squad. If you would have given CP3 a supporting cast of AD, Ryno, Lopez, Rivers, Aminu, Miller and EG (well a healthy EG) you can't tell me he would have left.
I think CP3 sees the fact now that yes....he's in a big market, has more talent around him than he had here, but it means nothing if your coach cant get the whole team to commit and play hard regardless of wins and losses. They can get to the playoffs on talent alone but you won't last that long....as he saw last yr. Del Negro is just not a guy that can get that commitment out of a team. Monty is. I guarentee you if Monty had that Clippers squad they would have been in the WCF last year at least. I honestly wouldn't be suprised if CP3 decided to walk if they dont get farther in the playoffs this yr. I wouldnt expect him to come back here...just saying that if he leaves I would understand.
I doubt Del Negro will be here next yr. If they don't get to the WCF but they want to keep CP3 they'll have to dump him. But like you said Sterling is involved....and we know how cheap he can be. I actually am wondering if Sterling is gonna wanna pay CP3 that SuperMax contract he's up for next season. LOL.
