Not Manu Ginobili or Stephen Curry, the biggest enemy of “Point God” Chris Paul’s career is… the referee

Legendary conductor Chris Paul once again had trouble with the referee in his career in a match against his former team Phoenix Suns.

While “CP3” was playing quite well with 6 points and 6 assists against the team he played for last season, something unexpected happened.

After today’s match, Chris Paul responded to the press that this “is completely a personal matter that the tournament and everyone knows about”. Coach Steve Kerr also spoke up to defend his student, saying that giving Paul a second technical foul was too serious.

Meanwhile, referee Scott Foster only briefly explained his decision that Chris Paul had committed an unsportsmanlike action.
