Humility and Humble...two words that go a long way in a persons journey through life. Imagine if everyone had a snippet of those qualities the world would be a better place. What If I told you a young man once scored 61 points in honor of His Grandfather's passing earlier that week. A young man who puts everything first as though he is not a Superstar in a World captivated with that notion. This is the Story of Chris Emmanuel Paul aka CP3 of now Team RISE UP in RED...the new CLIP Joint....the L.A. Clippers...aka LOB City.

The Best Schoolboy Hooper in the State of North Carolina in 2003 at West Forsyth County HS near Winston-Salem, N.C. A 2003 Big Mac (McDonald's All-American Basketball Player) with the likes of LeBron James (St. Vincent/St. Mary's OH), Luol Deng (Blair Academy NJ) Shannon Brown (Proviso East HS IL), Charlie Villanueva (Blair Academy NJ), Kendrick Perkins (Clifton J. Ozen HS TX, and Brandon Bass (Baton Rouge, LA Capitol HS) among others.

CP3 took his talents to nearby Wake Forest under the late great Lead Man Skip Prosser and the Demon Deacons had them one. He chose to stay close to home because that's who CP3 is Family-Oriented and a his late Grandpa, Nathaniel Jones', Guy. He dominated at Wake and by his Sophomore Season and was a All-ACC and a 1st Team All-American.

Drafted #4 in the 2005 LOGO Draft to the New Orleans Hornets.....Chris Paul was an instant hit in the Logo. He was so hyped coming out of Wake Shoe Company Nike and its subsidiary BRAND JORDAN picked up Paul and he has his own Line through Brand Jordan as we go to press. He joined the likes of Xavier OH X-Men Product David West (now a Pacers PF) and former Sniper of the Showtime Lakers and Tempe Sun Devil Alum Byron Scott who was Head Coach of the Hornets at the time.

It took CP3 all of 3 NBA Season to get voted into his 1`st All-Star Game in 2008. Paul has been mentioned among the Elite Players as wells Point Gods in the Logo. A 2008 Team USA Player, aka the Redeem Team, that brought back the Gold Medal..CP3 has arrived. he along with Top Points Gods in the Logo...Uncle Russ of Thunder Alley, D-Will 8 the Joker of the Nets, ADIzero Hero of the WEST SIDE STORY Report Derrick Rose, and Double R of the Green Team Rajon Rondo.

As for CP3 getting traded from the Hornets to the LA Clippers this past season. As loyal as one maybe and team-oriented as who is...CP3 knows it's a business and he is a Commodity and albeit a Darn Good one in the Logo. Now CP3 has settled in and reportedly bought him a house in LA which means Staples Center...Red and Blue...will never be the same.

With the New Clip Joint rolling and he and his new teammates, notably the LOB City Twin Towers, DeAndre and the BLAKEshow by his side. The Clips and Owner Donald Sterling have taken Figueroa Street by Storm and is there motivation for CP3 and his new Squad.

All they have to do is Look up in the rafters at the Staples Center....they are 16 behind their other Tenants wearing Purple and Gold. So there is work to do for LOB City....RISE UP in RED...City of Angels....RISE behind your new Point God CP3 and Brand Jordan.

Note: CP3 also has his own AAU Organization called the CP3 All-Stars outfitted of course by Brand Jordan. Top Player this past season on CP# All-Stars...NC State Bound and 2012 Big Mac Sniper Rodney Purvis.
