Chris Paul hasn’t even played a single game with the Golden State Warriors and there is already a ton of worry about him.
Over the last few weeks, many analysts, fans, and commentators have wondered aloud what Paul’s role will be within the team.
And when Paul and other Golden State stars have been asked about this, they have remained vague and noncommittal.
All of this has analyst Emmanuel Acho worried about the Warriors.
On Fox Sports’ Speak, Acho said that the “ambiguity” around Paul’s role is leading him to believe that the 12-time All-Star could actually make the Warriors worse.

Acho reminded fans that the Warriors got rid of Jordan Poole because of chemistry issues.
But Paul might be bringing chemistry issues of his own.
Steph Curry recently told the press that “it’s going to be on all of us” to figure out how Paul works within their rotation.
That is not something that Acho wants to be hearing in mid-July.
He isn’t the only analyst nervous about the Warriors with Paul on board.
As great as Paul is, if his position within the team isn’t figured out at the start of the season, it really can lead to some serious problems.
Many people have assumed that Paul will become a bench player for the team, a role he has never taken during his storied career.
Is he going to agree to that?
If not, how does Paul work alongside both Curry and Klay Thompson?
There are definitely many questions revolving around Paul and the Warriors.
And those questions will remain until fans see the team in action next season.
