Chris Paul and the Phoenix Suns are starting to prove themselves to be all bark and absolutely no bite this season. After all, this team has been known to do all the trash-talking in the world during games. Heck, they even got mad at Zion Williamson after his insane dunk in the dying seconds of the game.

All that over something they have done countless times themselves. And of course, not to mention Chris Paul’s dirty antics during the whole game against Jose Alvarado on Friday.
After all that drama, many expected the Suns to come storming back and show something for all their anger. But, as many have come to expect of this team by now, that wasn’t exactly what happened.
And Kendrick Perkins pounced right on them for it.
Kendrick Perkins lashes out at the Suns for not showing anything for all their fits at the end of the game on Friday
After their big loss on Friday against the Pelicans, Chris Paul and the Suns had a chance to set things straight by trying and getting a win against the Pelicans tonight. And yet, when the final buzzer sounded, the score stood at 124-129 for New Orleans.
This was shameful enough for Phoenix by itself. But, it appears that Kendrick Perkins was in the mood to rub it in a little bit.
Here is what he tweeted out right after the game.
As much as Perkins can often be a bit maddening with his opinions at times, it’s hard not to agree with him on this one.
Frankly, at this stage, with all the antics this team has pulled, they look like nothing more than a bunch of spoilt kids who threw a hissy fit after losing.
How did Zion Williamson fare in his outing against the Suns tonight?
In his first completely healthy season in the NBA, Zion Williamson has been ripping every NBA team to shreds. And clearly, the Suns were no exception.
In 42 minutes played, the man had 35 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, and 1 steal, while shooting 14 of 21 from the field (66.7%), and 2 of 3 from beyond the arc (66.7).
In simpler terms, Zion Williamson may just be the new daddy of the Phoenix Suns.
