Byron Scott Chris Quotations

I think everyone started to hang their heads a little bit when Chris went out of the game. It looked pretty bad. I think it took a few minutes to remember we had a basketball game to win.

After we drafted Chris Paul, it became obvious that Dan would look to sign elsewhere in order to have a chance to compete for a starting point guard job, ... Making this trade gives Dan that chance, which he earned by what he did for us last season, and it also prevents us from losing him without compensation. We wish him the best of luck in Boston.

It was our option, and we exercised it, so he's set for next year. But I don't think it would be a stupid thing to go to him this summer and say, 'look, let's sign a five- or six-year deal and keep you here for a while,' and when Chris Paul's is up, do the same thing.

I don't think Chris will play (today). I would love to just let him relax for the next two games and see how he feels for Monday.

I don't think Chris will play tomorrow. I would love to just let him relax for the next two games and see how he feels for Monday. Right now, I think he's still pretty banged up. I know how bad he wants to play, but I don't think it would be in his best interests to play the next two games at least.

He's not playing tonight. I just ran into him in the hallway and he said he'll be ready at halftime. But that's just Chris being Chris.
