After the game, Suns coach Monty Williams and Pelicans first-year head coach Willie Green embraced. That will give Booker time to recover even more from the injury although Williams said he kept telling him his hamstring felt good. Booker finished with 13 points with 11 coming in the second half. Phoenix won two of those three, but lost Game 4 by 15, which guaranteed a return to New Orleans for Game 6. Game 1 of the conference semifinals will be Monday in Phoenix. "We understand what closeout games mean," said Booker during a TNT postgame interview.

Inside Chris Paul's perfect game: How the Point God set an all-time ... (Sporting News)

Chris Paul's perfect night helped to lead the Phoenix Suns past the New Orleans Pelicans in Game 6.

Only Wilt Chamberlain has made more shots without a miss, but both of his perfect performances—18-of-18 and 16-of-16—were in the regular season. With Paul leading them, Phoenix stormed back and the game became a see-saw battle as no team had a lead bigger than three points until the final seconds of the fourth. Making NBA postseason history, Paul was a perfect 14-of-14 in Phoenix's series-ending 115-109 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans in Game 6.

Chris Paul shot a playoff-record 14-for-14, scoring 33 points to lead the Suns to a 115-109 series-ending win over the Pelicans in Game 6.

NBA: un record pour Chris Paul, Phoenix et Philadelphie en demies ... (BFMTV.COM)

Grâce à une performance record de Chris Paul sur ses tirs, les Phoenix Suns se sont hissés jeudi soir en demi-finales de la conférence Ouest des playoffs de ...

De quoi faire verser une larme d'émotion à leur coach Willie Green, consolé après coup par son homologue Monty Williams, dont il était l'adjoint l'an passé. Les Suns attendent désormais de connaître leur adversaire, qui sera Dallas ou Utah (3-2) opposés en soirée. Et c'est son shoot au milieu du trafic qui a redonné de l'oxygène aux Suns dans la dernière minute, après que Larry Nance Jr venait de rapprocher "NOLA" à trois unités. Maître du money-time tout au long de la saison, pour faire basculer les matches en faveur des Suns quand ils étaient serrés, "CP3" a encore démontré son savoir-faire, inscrivant 10 de ses 33 points dans le 4e quart-temps, pour finir avec un impressionnant 100% aux tirs (14/14) et 8 passes.

Perfect Paul, top-seeded Suns finish off Pelicans in Game 6 (TSN)

Short of a title, perfection, however, might be hard to beat. Paul was 14 for 14 — the most field goals without a miss in an NBA playoff game — in the Phoenix ...

Paul had 13 points in the quarter, but New Orleans used an 11-5 run to take an 85-82 lead into the final period. The Suns erased the 10-point halftime deficit by making 13 of their first 14 shots in the third quarter to take a 77-74 lead. Suns: Williams said Booker ramped up his conditioning while nursing a hamstring injury by playing one-on-one with assistant coach Jarrett Jack in the last several days. “All that pressure they’ve been doing against us the whole series, especially the last three games, was tough. “This is probably No. 1 because it just happened, and I knew how special New Orleans is to him. Suns coach Monty Williams said it was difficult to rank Paul’s achievements as a scorer, leader and game manager.
