Bismack Biyombo (21 points at 9/12 shooting, 13 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks) continues to impress and the Congolese would therefore have made a good MVP of the night, but Chris Paul remains key for the Suns.
Facing the Pacers, while Phoenix was returning home after his “road trip”, the “Point God” again demonstrated his mastery. By first starting the match with a 7/7 shooting, but above all by putting his teammates in orbit, Mikal Bridges on the cuts or JaVale McGee and Bismack Biyombo on the pick-and-roll.
The point guard is in the process of completely relaunching the career of the former Hornets and Raptors player, while continuing to flaunt his science of basketball.
He finished the game with 18 points (8/11 shooting) and 16 assists. This is the 99th game of his career with more than 15 assists, which allows him to overtake Isiah Thomas in this category. Only John Stockton (293), Magic Johnson (189), Steve Nash (110) and Oscar Robertson (106) now precede him.
Everything is rolling in Phoenix, which took off at the top of the Western Conference and the league (36 wins – 9 losses). The only small point of concern being the playing time of Chris Paul who, at 36, played 41 minutes.
