Tell me about AD when Chris Paul is at full strength.

SUNS WIN!! SUNS WIN!

 

[Proximo]

That was a hideous win - but I will gladly take it.

 

[Raindog]

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.

 

[Mainstreet]

Great to have Chris Paul back. He is a difference maker.

 

[95pro]

CP3 steal on Gasol.

LeBum doesn’t run back on that crowder 3

 

[Chaplin]

Love CP3!!!

 

[Hoop Head]

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.

 

[Chaplin]

Monty looked bad in the first half but man, he was pretty good in the second.

 

[Covert Rain]

Great win but it was ugly. We got home court back.

 

[Folster]

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

 

[Proximo]

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.

we didn’t we played like crap - at least offensively.

thank god the Lakers suck.

 

[Mainstreet]

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

 

[Hoop Head]

This series rides on AD's groin

No, this series rides on CP3's ability. If he can be productive, we win. AD or no AD. We had the lead when AD went out.

 

[Cheesebeef]

I’ve never been happier to say something:

I WAS DEAD WRONG ABOUT MONTY AND CP3!!!!

 

[Finito]

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

 

[Sunburn]

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?

 

[Cheesebeef]

Paul's steal at halfcourt with two minutes left was the play of the game.

yup. That play was HUGE. They had all the mo, cut the lead to 7, could have gotten down to 5 and CP3 makes an MVP play on D.

 

[Muggz]

Good stuff
Go Suns

 

[Suns_fan69]

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.

 

[Mainstreet]

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

 

[Finito]

Ayton 14/17 rebounds

That 3rd quarter stretch was clutch

 

[AZ Native]

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

And Lakers were lucky CP got injured.

 

[Hoop Head]

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

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.

 

[Sunburn]

No, this series rides on CP3's ability. If he can be productive, we win. AD or no AD. We had the lead when AD went out.

True. I just really wanted to say it rode on his groin. I'm a child.

 

[Suns_fan69]

Ayton 14/17 rebounds

That 3rd quarter stretch was clutch

Yup, Ayton was a beast on defense today, and a lot of those rebounds were in traffic with Lakers all around him. He's manned up this series, very impressed with his play.

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

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

 

[Cheesebeef]

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

dude... I REALLY don’t care being proven wrong, ESPECIALLY when it results in POSITIVE stuff for my teams. I am elated right now. We got ourselves a series.

and one WE CAN WIN.
