Well, we finally have a definitive answer to the eternal question, "Who's better in head-to-head matchups, Deron Williams or Chris Paul?" The answer is unequivically Paul. Paul Millsap that is. For once the game wasn't about the PG matchup. Sure, CP got his and Deron, apparently fighting a cold or the flu, had some great crossovers against Chris. Mansap though stole the show in an otherwise great team...
