-Hill did a good job when he was on defensively, a couple of steals, rebounds, contesting layups etc.
Barbosa comes in, stagnates the offense, the ball movement, took bad shots, let Parker penetrate the paint even easier than Nash...
D'Antoni went to Diaw far too much for about 3-4 possesions that lead to 0 points.
Stoudemire became complacent with his 25 first half points, was flat footer mostly second half, couldnt get the extra inch to beat the Spurs defender to the spot...
Nash was very unstable in the 3rd quarter.... Parker was putting a lot of pressure and it seems Nash wasnt ready or he was tired, was just "every where" with his dribbling.. he did recover in the 4th, but the 15 point lead was too much to overcome.
O'Neal played well... But the poor play of Diaw, Barbosa and cold offense of Stoudemire in the second half was too much...
Oh, DJ needs to be played to shut down Parker, who cares if he doesnt score, Barbosa didnt score either, but atleast Dj will cut 6-8 points off Parker's total.
