New Phoenix Suns head coach Frank Vogel appeared on SiriusXM NBA Radio on Tuesday. Vogel spoke in favor of Chris Paul staying in Phoenix.
It has been reported that Paul is 스포츠토토 considering free agency. The “Point God” is a highly sought-after player because of his game management skills and veteran presence. Rumors have already surfaced that the Los Angeles Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers, and New York Knicks are among the teams looking to sign him.
But Vogel believes Paul will stay.
“I think Chris Paul has a great opportunity to win a championship,” Vogel said. I’m sure he’s motivated. I want to be the one to help him win his first title, and I’ve made that clear to him. He is a player with something indescribable.”
Paul set a career low in scoring this season, averaging 13.9 points per game. But he also averaged 8.9 assists, making him a true field general.
“Paul has toughness, BQ, and a great understanding of his teammates’ status in the game, which means he knows what strategy to employ to win,” said Vogel. His retention is one of the key factors for next season.”
However, there are also doubts about Paul. He’s certainly a player who will go down in history. However, he is now past his prime. In addition, Paul is in the twilight of his career and has been plagued by frequent injuries. Even in the playoffs this season, he was hampered by a groin injury.
Vogel expressed confidence in Paul’s ability to stay healthy, citing his time managing LeBron James with the Los Angeles Lakers.
“Paul has a lot of pressure on him,” Vogel said. But he’s not going to play the full 82 games. We’re going to be smart and not put him at risk of injury. I managed LeBron James, who is a similar age to Paul, at the Los Angeles Lakers. I have a similar feeling about this.”
