Seven consecutive wins! Paul scored a triple-double + Booker scored 33 points, and the strong talk to the Suns defeated the Jazz to sit at the top of the table

At noon on January 25, Beijing time, a strong dialogue between the NBA Western Regular Season team sun and the fourth place jazz team unfolded, relying on Paul's quasi-triple double and Booker's 33 points, the sun finally won 115-109, won a wave of 7 consecutive wins, and continued to rank first in the Western Conference and even the league. In the case of the Warriors' turmoil and the Grizzlies' instability, the Suns have a good scenery, and have opened up a 2-game difference with the Warriors who are temporarily in second place, and the Suns have played two games less, and the situation is very optimistic.

In this campaign, a number of main players including Ayton, Payne, Conley, Mitchell and other main players were absent from injury. But compared to the Jazz, who lack core defender Donovan Mitchell, the Suns have lost and been affected less, after all, as long as there are two absolute main players on the court, Booker and Paul, the Suns have a main backbone.

The two teams were unable to pull apart in the first three quarters, and the Suns made a good start, establishing a double-digit lead in the first quarter. However, in the second and third quarters, the Jazz performed slightly better, unhurriedly approaching, and even overtaking the score. In the final quarter, from trailing by 2 points to finally winning eight points against his opponents, Chris Paul played a decisive role. In this quarter, the 36-year-old veteran achieved a big explosion, and he accounted for half of the 30 points the team scored. In the whole game, Paul contributed 27 points, 9 rebounds, 14 assists and 1 steal, which is a very comprehensive set of statistics, not only quasi-triple-doubles, 27 points is Paul's highest single-game score this season. Of course, the Suns' victory was also inseparable from the performance of first scorer Devin Booker. Booker scored a game-high 33 points in 38 minutes and grabbed seven rebounds. With this "double gun" in place, the Suns finally secured the team's victory.

The Jazz are now facing a lack of people, and clarkson, who was once the "best sixth man", has been promoted to the starting position, which is also something that cannot be done. From the current situation, although it is basically the same as last season's lineup, the Jazz have difficulty in obtaining the ranking at the end of last season's regular season (first in the West), and their strength is still far from becoming the top NBA giant team.
