Chris Paul says he's trying to get in shape to play in Game 6 against the Nuggets.
After missing three straight games against the Denver Nuggets, the Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul does everything in his power to be available for Game 6.
Paul suffered a groin injury in Game 2 and missed the last three games. Without him, the Suns managed to tie the series, but after the recent loss in Game 5, they trail 2-3.
"We'll see. I'm trying to [be available]," Paul told ESPN's Tim MacMahon after Game 5.
