Isaiah Thomas sparked debates online with his big claim on Sunday. The two-time All-Star guard said that the San Antonio Spurs would’ve won the NBA championship if they still had Chris Paul.
“The Point God” signed a one-year, $11 million deal with the Spurs in 2024. However, Paul agreed to terms to return to the Los Angeles Clippers the following year for the final season of his career. San Antonio reached the Finals this past season but lost to the New York Knicks in five games.

““I believe if they had Chris Paul on this roster, they would’ve won the finals,” Thomas said on the “Point Game Pod.” “His experience and who he is would’ve helped De’Aaron Fox, (Stephon) Castle, (Dylan) Harper.”
The 37-year-old received backlash from fans for his take.
