Chris Paul Hits A Huge 3 To Cut The Lead To 42

Chris Paul Hits A Huge 3 To Cut The Lead To 42 refers to a copypasta and reaction image popular among basketball fans. The phrase comes from a YouTube video that joked about Phoenix Suns player Chris Paul hitting a three-pointer in Game 7 of the 2022 Western Conference semifinals with his team down 45 points in the 4th quarter, making the shot essentially meaningless. The phrase and a screenshot of the video have been used to joke about basketball players and others contributing to a cause that's already well out of reach.
