Chris Paul is playing a lot of minutes lately against teams we should be putting away by the third quarter. I hope that doesn't come back to bite us in the postseason.

The Suns had 6 players in double figures including all of the starters.

This game was exhausting. What a ride from what looked like a loss to get a win.

Monty used Bridges a lot to set screens in the 4th quarter.

Monty put Ish in the game so the Suns could switch 1-5 on defense.

Bridges barely held his own on some of those. He was pushed around a lot tonight on those.

How many minutes did CP3 play tonight?

The All-Star break is still almost three weeks and 8 games away. We really need guard help at this point not to burn him out with Payton and Shamet doing their best impressions of steaming piles of dog ****... and that was when they were healthy.

Team high 40 minutes for Mr. Paul tonight.

Ish finally realized Monty wasn't taking him out of the game.

I've been low key impressed with Wainwright the last two games.

I'm thinking I have not given Ish Wainright enough credit. He showed tonight why Monty believes in him.

I admit, I know nothing about his background other than he played football at one time. Looking up his wiki, says he's 27 and this is his rookie NBA season, having previously played in Europe. Would be huge if he could turn into another PJ Tucker type.

This is one humble guy. If there is one player you want to succeed it's him.

Compliments of @JerkFace.

I missed this due to football but the box score says some things.

#1. Wainwright got big minutes and did well.
#2. Chris Paul with 19 freaking assists to just 2 turnovers. Wow is that impressive.
#3. Booker with a team worse -12 and a 1 to 3 assist to turnover says he has a bad game despite the 28 points.
#4. Bridges with 26. I honestly wondered if it was his career high. It wasn't but still great game.

Devin Booker hit two clutch threes that helped seal the win. Plus/minus doesn't tell the story.

It was Booker time tonight.
