hey Ronin... I'm going to have to ask you to abstain from posting any more links/newsowrthy tidbits at this point because any time you do, I'm assuming it's CP3 info!

so unless it's CP3 stuff, you're banned by Cheese herein. :)

To me, it's likely top of the list of things that could derail our season.
yeah. Losing him or Book and this sucker’s done. I think we could still do a little damage on the playoff sans Book... win a first round and put up a good fight against a second round opponent (maybe even win if we held on to the 1 and played say... the Mavs in round 2), but a CP3-less team could lose in the first round depending on matchup.

Starting to hope no news is good news. Well, not really, but trying to!

I just awoke from a nap, in it I had an absurd dream that the Suns were playing, we didn't know CP3's status still, late in the game he shows up, shirtless, arm in a cast pinned to his body, but in great spirits, a confusing scene, he also had what seemed to be an insurance adjuster in tow, she was walking around the court, during live action, writing things on a clip board and inevitably she got in everyone's way, costing the Suns several plays.

It was a really stupid dream.

After searching every source thinkable, I don't think any information has been released publicly about the injury to Chris Paul's hand.

Maybe someone will ask him about it at the All-Star event.

Another confirmation that there are no actual suns insiders.

Unless one of our other guards steps up and demands serious defensive attention, I don't believe we can afford to lose either CP3 or Devin for any length of time. I don't even think we can win the first round if our opponent gets an opportunity to game plan for no Booker (or no CP3).

I’m not even worried about CP3, now I’m just annoyed. The injury happen Wednesday, the MRI was yesterday. They know people are waiting for an update.

This has to be on purpose. No way they don't know what is going on. If CP3 is in Cleveland already he is not waiting on results either. I bet they know the media is just chomping at the bit and they are waiting for him to be asked on National TV during the All-Star weekend events.

I agree. This is beyond annoying.

It could be Chris Paul does not want the results public and rightly so if the injury will linger throughout the season and playoffs.

Another thought that passed through my mind, if the injury is not serious but needs to be surgically repaired, Paul could wait until after the All-Star game to get it done. Of course he would want to be back before the playoffs.

Getting Monty to coach the All-Star game has been a goal of the team.

Monty is already coach. That was nice goal but the main goal is to win the championship - nothing else matters

Unless they’re waiting on swelling to go down if CP three needed surgery he would have it by now
