PLAYA VISTA, Calif. – Another set of top plays, another flurry of notable Chris Paul passes and emphatic DeAndre Jordan dunks.
5) No Look
Having DeAndre Jordan inside means Chris Paul can toss up no-look lobs toward the rim and watch them get thrown down with ease.
4) Stuck in the Middle
DeMarcus Cousins gets caught in the paint between Chris Paul and DeAndre Jordan, a spot no defender wants to be in with the lob threat at hand.
3) Step Back
As Ben McLemore chases Chris Paul off a screen, Paul makes sure to give himself plenty of room using his special dribble move, which some have dubbed the “yo-yo” dribble. McLemore keeps running to the basket as Paul steps back for the jumper and the foul.
2) Slipping Through
Jordan runs up as if he’s setting the screen on Paul, then slips to the basket. Just a half second of hesitation from Nikola Jokic is all the room Paul and Jordan need for the alley-oop.
1) Poster Sale
Another game, another poster. This one wasn’t on an alley-oop. Instead, Jordan caught the pass, picked up his dribble, elevated and threw it down over Alex Len and Mirza Teletovic.
