In the closing seconds of the Western Conference Finals Game 6, Phoenix Suns star Chris Paul was seen sharing an emotional moment and hug with head coach Monty Williams. Obviously, there is more to it.
Thanks to the NBA, a mic'd up version of the moment has been released. And in a rather heartwarming talk, Paul was seen and heard so hyped up about the win–with Williams making sure he enjoys the moment he has worked for his entire career.
The NBA released the mic'd up version of when Chris Paul and Monty Williams embraced at the end of Game 6. A strong, beautiful moment:
Monty: "Chris, you're going to the Finals."
CP3: "Coach, I'm trying to calm down, coach."
Monty: "You don't have to calm down."

Sure enough, a lot of players and fans are happy for Chris Paul. After all, he is no longer on the list of the greatest players to never reach the NBA Finals. Also, the Suns star has a very good chance to win the first title of his career.
It's 16 years in the making for CP3, and he undoubtedly deserves to have a shot at the Larry O'Brien trophy. It is also worth noting that he was the one who made the Game 6 win possible, scoring 41 points with zero turnover to repel the Los Angeles Clippers.
The job is not yet done for Paul and the Suns, but they are certainly brimming with confidence that they can complete the mission. Besides, Devin Booker and Co. know very well how important and special the moment is for their veteran leader.
