I don't know why, but Nash seems to avoid shooting. The odd thing is they don't play us much differently than the Mavs do. Yet he torches them.

When Nash is scoring and passing that's when he's at his best, not just passing.

On that last Duncan foul before the half, did you notice how they all held the whistle until Boris caught the ball? They weren't going to call anything until the travel.

But if you smack the ball out of Tony Parker's hand, it's an automatic foul. :rolleyes:



Suns playing how they have to play, keeping things close. If they got in front by more than a bucket, Uncle Dick would make sure things didn't get out of hand...

David stern is guaranteed to be on a conference call with the refs right now "ok guys good job we dont want to make this look too slanted but we need to give the spurs more calls. i know you have been helpin them out quite a bit already but the suns are just to dang good. If someone as much touches tim duncan call a foul. after all everyone in the world hates me except those in Texas so why not help them out some more"

My prediction Suns win 96 to 90. Nash goes for 23 assists

My dad just popped in to the last part of the half and couldnt understand why the suns are not going directly at duncan. he pointed out that it seems like they are trying to be smooth and work their way around him. I quickly explained to him that if the suns as much look at Tim Duncan they are called for a foul.....After all he is Tim Duncan

Nash needs to take more shots.

Bell and Barbosa need to provide parameter shooting otherwise they will just continue to pack the paint.

And, containing Parker somewhat wouldn't hurt.

C'mon now. Even the guys on Xtra 910 said the suns have been getting the better calls over the last few games. This conspiracy stuff is nonsense. Especially since the nation would rather watch the Suns win anyways. Stern would be slanting it the Suns way if anything.

The Spurs almost shot the lights out in the 2nd quarter. Really, we've done well to stay with them the whole game. I'm still waiting for us to get on a real hot streak shooting. I'm tired of hearing all this talk about the Spurs D. Yes, it's good, but we have guys missing shots they normally make.

Suns are down. But it might be blessing in disguise. No 10pts lead that will make the Suns to take it easy.

You're giving Stern too much credit as an intelligent human being. The Suns in the Finals would be gold. Absolutely no one watches the spurs. Unless you count inbreds as people.

How is Marion? I haven't really heard from him. I am not being sarcastic here. Is he doing doing good?

I talked to him earlier. He said his mom is coming over on Tuesday, and he couldn't wait for the hushpuppies she makes. He sounded all right to me. :D
