Nice of you to trim that. Otherwise it would show Chris only attempts 2.8 shots per game against Herb. Because he knows better.

Of their regular 3pt shooters, only Bridges is shooting well at 46%, and that's on 2.6 attempts per. (save for Book being hurt)

All of their other volume 3pt shooters are shooting 32% or worse in this series.

Which means its very likely the Suns have a game where their shooters break out.

They were the 9th best team in shooting 3s in the NBA this year.

He can keep his head in the sand. Herb blocked 3 shots from the 3pt line in one game. I can't remember a player doing that in a playoff game. Like ever.

Or, ya know, they still won't, because they're being defended well because they're playing a good defensive team instead of the Kings on a Thursday night

Suns fans are extremely weirdly butthurt about a 9 seed playing them tough.

Booing Jose Alvarado is one of the softest, most bizarre things I've ever seen from a crowd.

Its ok to admit that the Suns are better and are missing their best player, but that Pelicans are playing tough and that Herb and Jose are good defenders for rookies.

Well they're getting a taste of their own medicine. Chris Paul has a reputation for being dirty, like when he kicked Alvarado in the nuts on purpose last game, and Booker is a little bitch, like when he shoved CJ in the back after a stoppage while he was in street clothes.

Which is by design. You think Phoenix is gonna run CP3 and have him iso on Herb Jones on every possession?

Yet you deliberately trimmed the stat line to make it seem like Chris was balling over Herb lol

I guess "frick Chris Paul" or "frick Jae Crowder" is much more acceptable

The stat line shows all the Suns players, not just CP3 lol.

The Pelicans defensive rating with Jones on the floor is a 117.4.

Which obviously, is not all Jones' fault, but this idea that the Pels are completely shutting down the Suns offense is ludicrous.

Yes, especially when they're giving us a reason to tell them to frick off.

Chris Paul has a dirty player rep, and Jae Crowder is dirty as frick too. They both ran their mouth that game to our guys, both can get the fury.

Obviously not in this thread. You must've missed the national media talk.
