“F*ck CP3, not meant for playoffs!” Suns fans burn Chris Paul’s jersey after major choke job in Game 7 vs Mavs 

Fans burn Chris Paul's jersey after Game 7

Having not won a single Game 7 in his career, Chris Paul had millions of basketball fans all around the globe keeping a close eye on him, to see how is the veteran guard able to lead his young team past the Dallas Mavericks at home. The reality was beyond description as Luka Doncic and Co. Decided to send home Phoenix Suns’ fans out of the arena with utter humiliation at halftime itself.

Not only did fans call out Chris Paul for faking his injury to get past the humiliation. But handful of fans even went onto cuss the Point God by burning his jersey right outside the stadium. Perhaps being 0-7 in Game 7 tallies in his career, CP3 has surely left basketball fans in Phoenix utterly frustrated with himself. Especially after dropping just 10 points in over 31 minutes.

Chris Paul has been nothing short of inspirational for the Phoenix Suns ever since he has joined forces alongside Devin Booker. But his ability in clutch games has always come under question, be the conference semi-finals against Warriors (with Houston), the NBA Finals against Bucks or now Game 7 against Mavericks. 

Fans could be seen burning CP3’s jersey by calling him ‘CP0, burn that sh*t up.’

This only goes onto show how quickly the entire scenario of a franchise could change around and for a player. But as much as fans have criticised Suns, Chris Paul and Devin Booker for their abysmal performance. Dallas Mavericks were simply sensational in their game-play in the mega showdown.

From Luka Doncic dropping game-high 35 points, to Spencer Dinwiddie returning to his career-best form to score 30 points coming off the bench, Mark Cuban’s players had all sorts of joy on the court. Knowing that the Mavs have come from a 0-2 deficit to win this semi-final series, makes the win and outcome even more admirable.
