How bad is the Chris Paul injury?
He wasn't able to finish the game. Do they expect him back soon or is more serious? Is he out for the series?
They are not reporting anything specific yet this morning, but wow, it was a close game until Paul went out and then DEN runs away with the 4th quarter. Durant and Booker play 44 and 45 min. That Denver not good enough to win in the playoffs defense holds PHX to 87 points.
I am going purely by the box score, I didn't see any of the game, but Caldwell-Pope was 4-4 from 3 for DEN but the rest of the team was 3-23, for an overall 26% from 3. Of course PHX was only 20% from 3. Must be that thin air in Denver.
PHX is in trouble. They don't have any depth at all anyway. If they lose Chris Paul, that will be crippling.
