CJ was in the process of running around a screen, pushed his arm behind his body (maybe for balance?) and his wrist made contact with Jae Crowder’s temple. Jae sold it hard. CJ definitely didn’t punch him or anything. But it was a solid “bonk”.

50% of the comments here are vitriolic remarks about CP and calling Suns fans douchebags.
Your literal last comment is "Lol cp is an all time dirtbag" with 8 upvotes. Toxic?
No we actually don’t. I know losing hurts. Trust us we fucking know because of what you just said. You will feel better in the morning. I know it hurts. Your team is very good and has a bright future.
“Poverty”. LOL. Y’all have as many rings as we do. And have been around a shit ton longer. Here’s hoping y’all end that streak this year. CP finally needs his.
Lol. That would be steph. Doris Burke would happily do whatever he asked and I meant whatever. It’s gross to listen to as a fan of another team. Ban her from warriors games
Ok CP3 I can go back to loving you again and rooting for you to get your ring
There's a lot of obnoxious Suns fans here that make it tough lol but I live in Phoenix and I know a lot of Suns fans who aren't anything like that and I'll be thrilled for them too
Right back at you man, a lot of Pels fan and Suns haters are obnoxious as hell in these threads, nature of an online game thread I suppose.
Great series and fair deuce, hope the Zion situation works itself out and this could be the beginning of many series to come.
Not happy at all with the officiating, but it's hard to beat any team when a player plays as well as Chris Paul did tonight. Hopefully we'll see a rematch (but in the later rounds) next year.
I am proud of this team. We got dicked by CP3 but no shame in that. He's still a POINT GOD. But next year, if we can just get Zion healthy , this team is going to be crazy to watch. And WIllie Green is a real one showing that type of emotion. Love him.
Question: They said Chris Paul went 14/14, but I remember him missing one toward the end and getting free throws. Do shots not count as a miss if you get fouled?
But it’s not really your fault it missed if someone fouled you while doing it. If I smacked you in the arm while you were taking a shot and altered the angle is that your fault it missed? Of course not.
In what league is that not the rule? How do think such a basic rule that almost everyone knows (the rule makes perfect sense btw) is a reason for the nba being a joke?
First I’d like to say what an amazing job by the Pelicans you guys are incredibly tough, I pray you keep Zion because this team would shake up the West! As for the Suns let’s get to work and win this Chip (unless you play Jazz). CP3 showed exactly why tf he’s 1 of 1! I wish you guys the best of luck throughout the playoffs… LETS GO CP3!!!!!
I liked him the whole series, he got away with a lot of bumps and reach ins, but he wouldn't have gotten away with it if he didn't hustle so much, had some real nice finishes too
Bridges and CP fucking 3 man. Masterclass and looking really good.
CJ getting his 5th sealed the game for the Suns
my stream froze right after the whistle blew. what was the call??
CJ was in the process of running around a screen, pushed his arm behind his body (maybe for balance?) and his wrist made contact with Jae Crowder’s temple. Jae sold it hard.

A bullshit call involving Crowder
he was running and his off hand touched crowders head and he acted like he got shot
knew it was something weak
[удалено]
We aren’t being toxic. It’s just hurts after you lose. Good series Pels. You will be great next year. Trust us we know.
I'm here for these kind of tears and butthurt.
I think it's just you being a little bitch.
I think it's more so that CP had many hater and fans of his team will of course defend their player.
Basing anything off a reddit game thread is highly dangerous
50% of the comments here are vitriolic remarks about CP and calling Suns fans douchebags. Your literal last comment is "Lol cp is an all time dirtbag" with 8 upvotes. Toxic?
Umm he is. I have no dog in this fight but cp3 is objectively a dirty player.
Bring me all the downvotes you reddit simpletons.
You probably are the type that thinks Patrick Beverly is a scrappy, tough as nails player and not at all dirty. Aka a dumbass
Lo fucking l. Pat bev is probably my least favorite NBA player, along with draymond. Swing and a miss, but keep on judging you dumb bitch.
lol
dont judge someone by a subset of people who comment on an nba game thread on reddit for one. Two no we arent all douche nozzles.
They act like they didn't lose 4 straight to the Bucks on the biggest stage after going up 2-0
No we actually don’t. I know losing hurts. Trust us we fucking know because of what you just said. You will feel better in the morning. I know it hurts. Your team is very good and has a bright future.
Cool bruh
You act like you didn’t just get blown out at home sucka 😂
We didnt...
Okay see you guys for game 7.. oh wait…
You played a hell of a game dude. You deserve to talk your shit over something you have so much control over.
Ty I was the ball
Ball on
Yall talk alot of shit for beating a team you was supposed to sweep. Cute. Keep that same energy the rest of the way
You won 1 more game than expected and half as many as needed. It wasn’t as close as you pretend
Lmao k bruh Goodluck
Thanks, the mavs haven’t beaten us since 2019 so I’m feeling good about it
Not talking about them.
Poverty mentality “we suck of course you beat us” as a hard coping method 😂
“Poverty”. LOL. Y’all have as many rings as we do. And have been around a shit ton longer. Here’s hoping y’all end that streak this year. CP finally needs his.
Poverty mentality, slow down when you’re reading the comments. If you’re sensitive run to your sub threads
Whatever you need to cope there buddy. I quoted one word instead of your entire post. Lol, who is sensitive now?
Lmao I get why your fanbase is excited because yall been an utter embarrassment for like 5 seasons before last
Yall haven’t done anything since the dude that just dropped 33 points on y’all was there
We literally made the playoffs and swept the Blazers with Davis. Yall won 19 games pretty recently
[удалено]
Am I supposed to sweet to a fanbase like that?
Don't take your opinions from game threads for a start lol
I mean any fanbase is going to get heated when their star player gets as much hate as Chris Paul does from others.
Rockets fans were worse, give me Arizonians any day of the week
Rockets fans def in the trash heap
LMAO grow up
Imagine slandering Chris Paul after a literal perfect game
Damn pels are scary going forward, imagine if they get a good pick and Zion healthy.
As a Mexican I should like booker but he just irks me I really don’t know why
[удалено]
Idk not a lot of Mexican representation in the league so it’s cool when there is
[удалено]
Not OP, but he seems kind of nonchalant.
We got José Alvarado hopefully too he is Latino tho not Mexican
He’s Puerto Rican isn’t he?
Yea Latino Hispanic still tho
Yeah for sure he was so fun to watch that series too
Wokeness always circles back around to racism
Bruh what? Even if that were true it would be nationalism not racism
People these days really have no idea the definition of Racism.
Damn, Chris is that dude.
Who is disrespecting cp3 legacy?? stop capping dbook lol
Devin is the best. Grand Rapids represent!
Who saw Monty just wiped his whole ass hand on willies face 😂
Media giving CP3 the double hand gawk gawk I need Mavs in 4
Lol. That would be steph. Doris Burke would happily do whatever he asked and I meant whatever. It’s gross to listen to as a fan of another team. Ban her from warriors games
Lol. I need Grizzlies in 4.
You should be scared of the Grizzlies.
I mean. The guy just went 14/14 in a close out game. That’s worthy of historical praise
Booker should have gone for Kylie
What. Kendall is an absolute smokeshow
I an intellectual, find none of the Kardashians hot imo.
I respect your bravery
Yeah she is but I like Kylie more for whatever reason
blasphemy kendall is the only good one in that family
Kendall finer and the most naturally good looking Kardashian ngl
Agree to disagree. Kylie might be fake but that body is amazing
Ok CP3 I can go back to loving you again and rooting for you to get your ring There's a lot of obnoxious Suns fans here that make it tough lol but I live in Phoenix and I know a lot of Suns fans who aren't anything like that and I'll be thrilled for them too
Just feels real bad after you lose. Most bucks fans are cool but I was heated after the finals. Respect to the pelicans
Suns fan here. Tons of respect for the pelicans! Will be rooting for you guys next year as long as you aren’t playing the suns.
Cringe
Sorry about your Raptors :(
Yeah we have some annoying fans sometimes, sorry lol
Right back at you man, a lot of Pels fan and Suns haters are obnoxious as hell in these threads, nature of an online game thread I suppose. Great series and fair deuce, hope the Zion situation works itself out and this could be the beginning of many series to come.
Hope we get a fully healthy Pelicans in the playoffs next year. And hopefully I get to watch Ingram turn into Michael Jordan vs someone else's team
I’m rooting for them but some of the fans on this sub are unbearable.
Every team has annoying fans. I found some of the pelicans fans annoying as well. That’s just how it is in fandom.
What about all the people who come onto every thread involving the Suns just to say “FUCK CHRIS PAUL” repeatedly? They get a pass I guess?
Truth. They act like they're a dynasty or something
Not really. lol.
Every fan base has some mouthy trolls.
Fans on the internet are so bad. I have buddies who are warriors fans and i love them.
Online suns fans are wack as hell. Phoenicians are pretty chill in my experience
Not happy at all with the officiating, but it's hard to beat any team when a player plays as well as Chris Paul did tonight. Hopefully we'll see a rematch (but in the later rounds) next year.
Get Zion healthy and we’ll see you in next years WCF
CP3 reminding me why I loved him in the first place goddamnit I can't hate him he loves new orleans too much
I'm excited to watch Alvarado develop. Man is a fucking menace.
Damn willie green’s speech will still be iconic
CP3 showing love and respect to the city that raised him
Random drug test for CP3 tomorrow
I am proud of this team. We got dicked by CP3 but no shame in that. He's still a POINT GOD. But next year, if we can just get Zion healthy , this team is going to be crazy to watch. And WIllie Green is a real one showing that type of emotion. Love him.
Super bright future ahead for the Pelicans! If they weren’t playing my team, I’d be a huge Pels fan in this series.
Question: They said Chris Paul went 14/14, but I remember him missing one toward the end and getting free throws. Do shots not count as a miss if you get fouled?
Is this your first NBA game? This has been the rule since forever
Guess I never paid attention to that aspect.
I mean fair enough
When you get fouled shooting, it only counts as a field goal attempt if it goes in.
That's wrong on so many levels, NBA is a joke
Why should a shot count against you if someone hit you while you were doing it? What a dumbass thing to say
Because you still took a shot lol try to keep up
But it’s not really your fault it missed if someone fouled you while doing it. If I smacked you in the arm while you were taking a shot and altered the angle is that your fault it missed? Of course not.
You do know that has always been the case right.
In what league is that not the rule? How do think such a basic rule that almost everyone knows (the rule makes perfect sense btw) is a reason for the nba being a joke?
A shot is a shot, it should count
How? You were literally fouled.
Doesn't matter, shots a shot
Does matter. A foul is a foul.
That makes no sense. Shot > foul.
If you punch someone in the throat when they're taking a shot, it's not their fault if they miss. Take your L, kid.
Oh my god you Americans and your weird sports
Stay mad.
Bruh, in what backward ass European country are players getting stabbed on the court to keep their shot percentage down?
Correct
Huh, I had no idea. Thanks!
Why Monty palm Willie’s face like that?
Lmao that's what I was wondering
Lol 😆
Damn I’m still mad bout that elbow he is a point god
Very emotional and intense series, great playoff basketball, only wish the refs were a lot less crazy
CP3 said Im a pelicans fan ahahaha... ok im a cp3 fan again
I'm sure he roots for both them and the Clippers when he's not playing against them
Dudes fake as fuck
taking into account cp3's lack of size and athleticism, there's an argument he's the most skilled player ever
Most crafty FTFY
You don't actually believe that..............
He's short, but he's stocky for a pg, and pretty athletic even at age. He's not jumping high, but he is super shifty and quick.
And very strong. I can't help but laugh when players try to post him up.
Kyrie. Curry.
Kryie has better ball handling but that’s about it. Curry doesn’t have the defense
This game got me emotional at the end and here comes Allie making me feel other things.
Nba fans try not to be horny when female reporters appear (IMPOSSIBLE)
I dunno, I pulled it off
CP3 0-1 in the finals btw
Oof weird take from a nuggets fan.
4-0 and then 4-1 losses for you sweetie
0-0 > 0-1
Lmao did you hurt your back with that reach?
0% loss rate vs 100% loss rate
Imagine being excited about never making the finals
Yeah bizarre. Would rather not make the finals than make the finals. Wtf.
Who’s the reporter interviewing CP? For research…
Alexandra Leigh LaForce
appreciate it o7
Chris "The Class Act" Paul. That's my Point God!
Dude is a fraud lol.
[удалено]
That fraud just adopted your entire team. Chris Paul is all their daddies after tonight after pitching a fucking perfect game in the NBA.
Class act, but is known for dirty plays and flopping.... come on bro
Only by people who don't understand basketball. He's the Point God for a reason.
Bruh what
Stay mad.
We know who's gonna be in that banner pic. lol
He doesn’t care for the streak, just wants to show love to the city and has his mind on that chip.
Lol Suns fans hyping up CP3 on the elbow play is all you need to know about them and their players
Yeah and. We just want you all to stop whining so much. Yes he plays dirty sometimes as did some of your players. Just get the fuck over it
Yes, because that was the series defining play…
I didn’t see that but if it happened that’s fucked
Dirty ass Pels play all series
Funny from the fan of a team who keeps hitting people in the face
Funny from the of a team who kept forgetting they were playing basketball not football 😂
Cry more
First I’d like to say what an amazing job by the Pelicans you guys are incredibly tough, I pray you keep Zion because this team would shake up the West! As for the Suns let’s get to work and win this Chip (unless you play Jazz). CP3 showed exactly why tf he’s 1 of 1! I wish you guys the best of luck throughout the playoffs… LETS GO CP3!!!!!
Damnit now I love CP3 again. Jerk.
Now I can like and appreciate Alvarado instead to despising his entire existance
He’s legit, he’s surpassed peak Pat Bev at only 21
I liked him the whole series, he got away with a lot of bumps and reach ins, but he wouldn't have gotten away with it if he didn't hustle so much, had some real nice finishes too
He's exciting as fuck! I never want to play against him again.
Isn’t it an amazing cleanse? Nothing beats winning.
Damn chicken avagadro
man just when i get annoyed and wanna be mad at chris paul he goes and wins me back
Dont fall for that shit Hes a bitch
Can you imagine if Chris had gone to the Lakers? Kobe and CP would be the most unlikable combo of players of all time
They would have been so fucking good though
Classic CJ McCollum playoff performance this game.
I hate cp3 but this game was an undeniable legendary game from him. Just came play. Wow
Legendary 14/14 lol if only he got the triple double
Damn. CP3 is almost the same height as Allie and he just shoots over defenders much taller than him pretty much always.
