Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin The question was for Devin Booker about Mikal Bridges, but Chris Paul had something to say.
“I don’t care if Mikal don’t play another game this season, he better be on that all-defensive team this year. Every night. Every night.” pic.twitter.com/WdjdNFbxnt – 1:36 AM

Kellan Olson @KellanOlson Devin Booker was asked by @Gerald Bourguet about Mikal Bridges’ defensive impact and Chris Paul stepped in and said even if Bridges doesn’t play another game this season he better make the All-Defense team. – 1:03 AM

Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin Paul jumper.
Crowder 3.
Crowd goes crazy.
With Booker on the bench, #Suns have awakened.
Now on 15-2 run in taking 95-86 lead with 7:27 left in the game.
Booker 5-of-16 (1-of-5 on 3s). – 12:09 AM
Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet Some of the turnovers have been less than stellar but I hope nobody takes for granted what Chris Paul is still doing at age 36. The man is timeless – 12:07 AM
James Ham @James_HamNBA Buddy Hield hitting shots now. Not through 3 quarters, but now. – 11:58 PM
Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet Woo boy. Chris Paul step-back 3, Deandre Ayton swat at the rim, Devin Booker alley-oop to Mikal Bridges…if he had finished that, the roof might have gone off the building – 11:00 PM

⁃Patty Mills on James Harden. – 10:56 PM
Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis James Harden after going 19-of-20 from the line, the fourth time in his last five game he’s taken at least 11 free throws: “I don’t want to talk about officiating. I’m just trying to attack the basket.” Now that he’s finally getting calls, wise not to rock the boat. #Nets #NBA – 10:45 PM

Kyle Goon @kylegoon Russell Westbrook: I think the reality of it is that everybody on the outside has really high expectations of our team, as they should. But the reality of our team is that we haven’t really played together. – 10:31 PM
Kellan Olson @KellanOlson When looking at certain pockets of the rotation, I think the Payne-Booker-Shamet-Johnson minutes are going to be really great for this team but they just haven’t gotten there yet. In 18 minutes it’s a +1. The CP3 + reserves and Booker + reserves numbers will both get better. – 10:31 PM
Jovan Buha @jovanbuha Russell Westbrook on what he wants to accomplish on the rest of the road trip: “Win.” – 10:30 PM
Kellan Olson @KellanOlson This pace is gonna be such a plus for the Suns in the playoffs if it holds up. CP3 is already getting downhill into ball screens with 20 seconds left on the shot clock. – 10:28 PM
Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS I got so caught up with the Lakers that I missed this… James Harden took 80% of Brooklyn’s free throws tonight? Has that ever happened? – 10:22 PM
Ajayi Browne @ajayibrowne James Harden admits that he could’ve performed better, but he missed some easy shots that he usually makes. – 10:21 PM
Ajayi Browne @ajayibrowne James Harden says,
“Guys stepped up tonight — It was a collective effort, we knew we had guys out so we knew guys had to step up and we had a few of them.” – 10:20 PM
