Chris Paul is working on getting better everyday, I know this because I follow him on SnapChat (@cpiii). No days off for a Point God, I guess. Not surprisingly, Paul’s work for this LA Clippers season is gaining some buzz, especially an assist delivered ever so beautifully to a patient Brandon Bass for the dunk. The Point God, known for his assists, will get a chance to win the first ever “Assist of the Year Award” with the help of Fans like you!

The Point God
