Hey fella's i can't watch the game. Who is a guarding Parker? Hasn't taken a shot.

Looks like a solid start!

Go SUNS!

 

[BuddyFranklin]

SO much for that! 4 for 15 from the field! ... eh.

Terrible first quarter for the Suns. No way are they going to win scoring around 20 points a quarter. KT did a nice job on Duncan, but the pace is way too slow, not enough 3's, and terrible rotations on defense allowing Bowen and Finley to have open 3's. You know thats all those 2 can do, why not cover them?

 

[SirStefan32]

somebody make a shot, please!!!!!!!!!!

 

[HooverDam]

I can't stand this crap. Why do the refs let the game devolve into this physical, slop fest? This isn't basketball! I don't care if its the playoffs or not, call a damned foul when the Suns are getting mugged in the paint, good God. The refs have already set the tone for this game and are going to let it be a slug-fest which plays right into San Antonio's hands, I'm so sick of it.

The Suns are still not getting any dunks, the pick and roll w/ Amare and Nash is starting way too far away from the hoop and the Spurs are clogging the lane and preventing Amare from getting dunks. Someone needs to point this out to Amare so he can kick it out to a three point shooter. Right now the Suns are completely off their game.

 

[Ronin]

c'mon these refs are terrible!

The Suns were up 13-6 when MD took Thomas out of the game.

 

[Linderbee]

Halfway through the 2nd & we're JUST NOW at 30 pts...damn.

 

[Linderbee]

I want to have Barbosa & Bell's love child. I shall name him Randro Barbell.

[Bufalay]

[Divide Et Impera]

5/5

Halfway through the 2nd & we're JUST NOW at 30 pts...damn.

This team always has problems on offense when players do NOT move without the ball. They just stand around waiting for someone to bail them out

 

[Ronin]

Good adjustment by the suns to have Shawn go over the S/R.
Nice play by Barbosa

 

[Bufalay]

larry bird...i mean nash is now playing well

 

[az1965]

That's more like it... looking little bit like Suns game now.

 

[Linderbee]

Why not Rajosa Barbellso

Well, I'm not sure where in "Leandro" and "Raja" you're getting "Rajosa", or where the "so" is coming from in the last name, but if you like it better, fine.

 

[Linderbee]

These refs suck.

 

[Linderbee]

Really, how do you make it into the NBA when you can miss an uncontested dunk???

 

[arthurracoon]

argh

bowen with the 3 at the end

 

[HooverDam]

That play where Manu held Amare's leg is the essence of Spurs basketball to me. Sneaky dirtiness. It works, but honestly, I could never be a Spurs fan, its like cheering for the Empire while watching Star Wars.

 

[Evil Ash]

These refs suck.

That Ginobli non-call was just embarassing.

 

[hsandhu]

Seriously, steve nash might be the stupidest defensive player in the nba. With 15 secs left, i would have bet my life the half would end with bowen hitting a 3.

He does that all the time, just blatantly leaving a guy for no reason whatsoever, in fact he went up to marion with 15 secs left and basically told everyone he was leaving bowen. Why? Let parker try and score over marion, instead of giving bowen a wide open 3 in his sweet spot.

So damn frustrating.

 

[devilalum]

KT is the difference, he drives Duncan nuts.

Unfortunatley with nash on the defensive end of the court, you have take the bad with the good. The bad was leaving Bowen WIDE OPEN for 3 at the end of the half. The good being that he drew a few offensive fouls on Duncan.
