Suns @ Spurs [Game 1] April 19, 2008, 12pm (3pm EST) ABC

[Billy Bob]

Good game!

 

[Chaplin]

Ultimate irony. This game will be decided on how well we play defense.

 

[Michael]

What a start to this series. My heartrate must be at 160bpm...

Come on! We need this game!

 

[arthurracoon]

shot clock violation....really?

ARGH

 

[passenger]

nash didnt see the clock,needless turnover.

now defense time for last 20 seconds

 

[HooverDam]

Shot clock violation? Jeez, you gotta know how much time is left Nash.

How the hell do you Finley that wide open? You know they're going for a 3, jesus. If this goes to OT, the Spurs have a HUGE advantage w/ the Suns in foul trouble.

 

[passenger]

how the heck we let finley shoot it

 

[Billy Bob]

wow

 

[Assface]

Damn, that was just a clutch shot by Finley. 15 seconds for Nash to win this for us.

 

[az1965]

Huge blunder. We should have fouled before the attempt.

 

[azdad1978]

jesus

 

[Billy Bob]

o t

 

[azdad1978]

Why didn't Nash took that shot? WTF

 

[Assface]

I'd have rather had Giricek out there then Diaw/Barbosa.

 

[az1965]

We did not execute well at all in the end on both ends of the court. Just bad.

 

[HooverDam]

Why don't they go to the Amare-Nash P/R there? D'Antoni normally comes up w/ great plays out of a time-out, but if you give it to Amare there's a huge chance he either dunks it, lays it in, gets a good jumper, or is fouled, it seems like a much higher percentage shot than a Barbosa floater.

 

[tobiazz]

I can't believe it just went to OT. Nothing like a runner by Barbosa to end the game. What is his accuracy on those, 20%?

 

[Magoo]

Terrible.

I know it's only game one, but the Suns really need this win.

 

[Chaplin]

Hell, I'd rather Barbosa shoot the 3 than an out of control floater.

 

[95pro]

Huge blunder. We should have fouled before the attempt.

i agree, we had a foul to give.

I'd have rather had Giricek out there then Diaw/Barbosa.

yes, i'd rather have GG than barbs.

 

[JS22]

Typical Suns.

Saw this one coming from a mile away. Around the 2:00 mark I kept wondering who would hit a 3 to tie the game.

 

[Billy Bob]

Bowen fouled Barbosa we shuold have got 2 shots, I just rewatched it.

 

[azdad1978]

Geez I'm not confident when barbosa is there

 

[passenger]

we will have a loong overtime

leading by 2,we have the ball

 

[Chaplin]

LB is the leading rebounder for us. LEADING REBOUNDER.
