Chris Paul's Warriors debut got weird in the best ways possible

Chris Paul's Warriors debut in a 108-104 loss to the Suns was weird in the best ways possible.

Chris Paul’s debut with the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday was always going to feel strange. After all, he's a big time former Dubs rival suiting up for his longtime postseason tormentors, and arrived following a trade that signaled a departure from what was once a firmly held team-building philosophy within the organization. The weirdness started off in the first quarter. Less than five minutes into the game, Paul got switched onto Suns forward Kevin Durant during a defensive possession.

That all happened because the offense mainly ran through Paul's impeccable feel for the game that creates shots for himself and others, something that's not been the case for previous Warriors bench squads. To avoid an overreaction, it’s worth noting that the Suns have a notably top-heavy roster. The guys that make up the team outside the starters would be closer to the end of the bench on a more well-rounded roster.
