Just finished watching the game on delay. Don't really have anything more to add. Well, maybe a little...
I thought the Suns were in trouble at halftime, and it seemed like every time they got close in the third quarter, they'd blow a possession and then Stackhouse would make something. But Dallas finally missed a few shots, Jackson was terrific (as everyone else has said), and the whole team found its focus again in the fourth quarter.
This is the best that Nash has ever played in his career. It's like he finally believes that he is the MVP and the confidence has taken him to a new level.
Two poor games in a row for Richardson. It would be great to see him catch fire in Game 6.
I wouldn't have thought that the Suns would have much chance if I had known that they would shoot only 5-19 from three-point range. But they owned the boards. Owned them! Their +14 rebounding advantage might be their best effort of the whole season.
Good job by Stoudemire keeping himself mentally in the game after a rough first half. When he committed that idiotic foul on Nowitzki right before halftime, I thought he had given up on the game. But I was wrong.
The Suns are finally out of ceremony games, right? Fighting off those jinxes is getting rough!
