Senior Josh Howard did as well or better than Paul did with the same players.
NBA writers are hilarious with articles about this. NBA history is full of great players who couldn't win championships against the dominant players of their time. There are plenty of great players who couldn't beat the Lakers or Celtics, the Bad Boys or Bulls, the Spurs, Lakers, or Heat.
You can't use the same standard in the NBA as in MLB or the NFL. Dynasties are much easier to sustain in the NBA than other leagues. There are only 10 players on the court at a time. If you aren't the best one or one of the 3 on your team in the top 4, you probably aren't winning a title. Is it really Chris Paul's fault if he can't get by Durant/Westbrook, Duncan/Parker/Manu/Pop, and Lebron/Wade/Bosh to win a championship?
