I would have taken out Vassell not Champegnie tbh.

We really needed Castle in on those possessions because no way he makes those dumb ass mistakes, but Julian was 4-5 from three in the 4th up to that point. How do you take out a guy that just shot you back into the game and is one of your best perimeter defenders at that point? We needed his shooting and he was red hot.
The first rebound and turnover Julian should have gotten the ball out of his hands asap. He should have passed the ball to Chris Paul immediately, instead he dribbles it up to half court and then throws a lazy pass that gets picked off. The foul and second turnover don't happen if he just gets the ball to the guy who's made a HOF career out of taking care of the ball.
Nah, he really caught a snowball pic.twitter.com/XRl1FW64iu

Paul was exhausted. He was clearly gassed. Guy is super old. You gotta put someone else in who can help relieve him at times. He's not in his 20s anymore. Vassell should be one of those guys but half the time he runs away from the ball and when he does get it he's just a ball stopper. Time to have serious discussions about Vassell and his ceiling.
Victor Wembanyama just hit 1,000 career rebounds.
