Houston • Jazz coach Quin Snyder is a big enough fan of Rockets point guard Chris Paul’s acumen that he’s willing to go to the well of self-effacing humor to make his point.
“I’ve said it before, I think Chris is probably a better coach than me,” Snyder said. “That’s not saying much about me, I’m trying to give him a compliment.”
The two know each other well from their multiple playoff battles: now in each of the last of the last three seasons, they’ve battled it out, with Snyder coming up victorious in 2017 against the Clippers and Paul winning last year in the second round.
