After a 107-103 away win over the Warriors, the Suns have a nine-game winning streak. If they can beat the second-place Grizzlies in the West in the next game, the Suns will have a ten-game winning streak, and they have already won ten consecutive games twice before this season, and they have also won eighteen consecutive wins, setting a new record for the longest winning streak in team history.
Aside from the Suns, no other team has been able to win two 10+ streaks this season. However, the strength of the Grizzlies can not be underestimated, and they have also won 6 consecutive games in the case of Morant's injury. In games without Morant, the Grizzlies have a record of 19 wins and 2 losses. So even without Morant, the Sun has no certainty of victory.
In addition, after the victory over the Warriors, the Suns won their 62nd win of the season, which also tied the best record in team history. If the next game wins the Grizzlies, the Suns will set a new record for the best record in team history, and even if they can't beat the Grizzlies, the Suns will break the best record is a high probability event.
Solar refreshed the best record in team history, and Paul was of course indispensable. It is worth mentioning that for Paul, this is the fourth time in his personal career that he has helped a team to play the best record in team history, which is also a record in the history of the NBA.
Paul played for a total of 5 teams in his career, except for only one season for the Thunder, who failed to lead the team to the best record in team history, the best records of the other four teams were played under Paul's leadership. The Pelicans' best record in history was 56 wins and 26 losses (07-08), the only 50-win win in Pelicans history, when Paul nearly became MVP but lost to Bryant.
The Clippers' best record in franchise history (57 wins, 25 losses, 13-14) was also played under Paul's leadership, and in addition, the Clippers have had more than 50 wins in five seasons in history, all of which were led by Paul. The Rockets' best 65 wins in history were also won under Paul's leadership, of course, Harden was the first core at the time, and eventually won the MVP, but Paul was indispensable.
This season, Paul will also help the Suns to get the best record in team history, and is expected to win more than 65 wins again, and may even help Booker win the MVP, which is Paul's leadership and dominance. From this point of view, Paul did not get an MVP, but he was a real MVP.
Every time Paul joins a new team, he will improve the team's winning percentage a lot, after Paul joined, the Pelicans' winning rate rose from 22% to 46.3%, the Clippers' win rate rose from 39% to 60.6%, the Rockets' winning rate rose from 67.1% to 79.3%, the Thunder rose from 59.8% to 61.1%, and the Suns rose 70.8% from 46.6%.
It can be seen that the Clippers and Suns have greatly improved their winning percentages after Paul joined, from weak teams to strong teams, and the Rockets, which are already strong teams, have become the top teams in the league after getting Paul, almost defeating the Warriors and reaching the Finals.
