Phew... man, what a wrencher, though. Thank goodness for the win.

It was nice to see Paul getting back to himself, and Crowder play better.

We still need Bridges, and especially Booker, to play much better.

I’ve never been happier to admit I was wrong about Monty and CP3!

*******. Man... I still don’t even think we played that well.

I love this team.

I got to give you a lot of credit for this post. Not a lot of people own their mistakes like this.

Lakers fans: "The Suns are lucky that AD who was injured for much of the season also got injured in the playoffs."

Chris Paul with 18 points, 9 assists and 3 steals is the difference maker.

Mark Jackson says it, this wasn't about "No Anthony Davis". The Suns won this game.

but that’s gonna be the entire story as far as the media is concerned

Paul goes down and guys like Shannon Sharpe act a fool talking bout Lebron took the Suns heart

now it’s gonna be this don’t count AD hurt

If AD remains out, can anyone think of a bigger advantage swing in team sports history than getting CP3 back and AD going down injured?

Too close for comfort. Booker needs to get his head out of his ass.

But we got the win, and Jae has (hopefully) snapped out of his funk. Time to protect home court.

Make no mistake the Suns won this game at half speed. Let's rev up the engine in Phoenix.

That can be the story for those who didn't actually watch the game and caught highlights and saw the box score. The media crowned the Lakers after they secured their playoff spot in the play-in. It doesn't make it true.

With CP3 at full strength and one of Cam/mikal/Crowder playing somewhat average we beat the Lakers no matter what.
