In the fourth quarter of Monday's Game 4 between the Memphis Grizzlies and the hometown Los Angeles Clippers, the action was intense and the players were giving it all they had. The fans at the Staples Center were also doing their best to take advantage of every opportunity that presented itself.

When Chris Paul paused to take a breather near the sidelines, an admirer made sure that this one-in-a-lifetime opportunity would not pass her by.

CP3 is truly a man of the people, no ifs, ands or butts about it. He may play aggressively, but does his best to turn the other cheek when slighted.

Some people say he makes an ass out of himself from his constant flopping, but he is simply trying to keep his team from falling behind. His role as point guard assures he’s rarely bringing up the rear.

Also, something something backcourt in motion.
