Chris Paul Second Round Curse






Yet again, Chris Paul is on the verge on another Second round disappointment. I want the people to know this is just an observation and not jinxing Chris Paul here. I am not his hater. But what made
 me think he cannot win a second round series? Statistics or he is jinxed? Let's find out some facts.

2008-Gets beaten by the San Antonio Spurs in game 7.
2012-Gets swept by the Spurs in game 4.
2014-Gets beaten by the Oklahoma City Thunder in game 6.

Despite his obvious talent and undeniable skills, he never went past the second round. The first thing about Basketball jinxes that comes to my mind is Tracy McGrady. A potent scorer and all in one player that never got out of the first round until he became the Spurs benchwarmer in 2013.

If the Rockets beat the Clippers at the Toyota Center in Game 7, can we start the conversation that he remains jinxed in the second round? Who jinxed him and why? If there's no true jinx on him, why he couldn't get past the second round?
