Playoffs 2010: Western Conf Semifinals, Game 3 – Suns At Spurs Game Thread

[Proteus]

What the heck is wrong with the offense early in the game again?

 

[Cheesebeef]

Nash and Amare missing wide-open jumpers/layups. Not a good start.

 

[TBaslim]

Suns need to calm down and let the game come to them, esp Amare. Here's hoping they get in a nice rhythm.

 

[Cheesebeef]

stat can't throw it in the ocean so far.

 

[TBaslim]

Nash is so smart. Took a few possessions, but now he is going to work against Pops adjustments. Spurs are going to bring it all night though, so everyone had better step it up!

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 16-23 with 2:43 left in the 1st quarter. Suns shooting 41%. Spurs shooting 56%.

Play some defense guys.

 

[btimsah]

Is it just me, or is Amare getting fouled with no calls yet we get called for fouls on the other end.. ugh, hate NBA officiating. It's so inconsistent!

 

[tobiazz]

Great, ***** and Frye have swapped ability.

 

[TBaslim]

And it turns ugly for the Suns fast. Sigh.

 

[btimsah]

If that Amish ***** dude is hitting, different series.

 

[TBaslim]

Spurs are tough anyway at home, plus there's some home cooking going on so far too.

 

[Cheesebeef]

this is exactly what I was afraid of. Amare outscored 11-0 by Bonner/McDyess.

wow. SHOCKED they called the walk on Manu there.

 

[btimsah]

Not One Foul Called On Them

 

[Sunburn]

Now that's Suns basketball *sarcasm*

 

[Bufalay]

they called a charge on manu

 

[slinslin]

Pretty sure Amare and JRich were hacked a couple of times.

1 Foul on the Spurs the entire quarter 6 on the Suns including a flagrant...

 

[btimsah]

they called a charge on manu

*Defensive Foul*

 

[AfroSuns]

Amazing how all the physical play with Amare didn't draw any fouls but that is okay, they have to make it competitive like all non-suns fans wants it.

 

[Proteus]

Suns down 19-28 after the 1st quarter. Suns shooting 38% with 3/7 3 pointers. Spurs shooting 53% with 3/3 3 pointers.

Suns have committed 4 turnovers (JRich with 2), Spurs 2.

Suns and Spurs both have 2 offensive rebounds.

Suns have hit 0/0 free throws, Spurs have hit 5/9 free throws.

Can't shoot, can't defend = recipe for loss.

 

[tobiazz]

Frye and Barbosa are going to do nothing today

 

[btimsah]

Bonner with the between the leg walk..

 

[Cheesebeef]

Hill and Rich are the only guys who came ready for tonight.

 

[btimsah]

I love Gentry's instincts..

 

[Cheesebeef]

and EVERYONE is abusing Amare on D.

 

[Proteus]

What happened to Amare owning the Spurs?
