That's what I'm saying BR.
BUT let's not forget he's also making good passes out there too (Oberto, Duncan e.g.)

I really wonder what Kurt Thomas is thinking and feeling about this series. Once, he was the Duncan-stopper... now he's a spur helping to seal the deal. Must be weird experiencing this rivalry from both sides (fans, style, locker room, team,...)!

could it be, that the so called "best first round matchup of all time" ends up beeing an easy (at least game 2+3) sweep for us?

The Suns biggest problem is that they have no balls or heart... hell they don't have self respect. Jeez... two or three times Shaq was left alone in an island to guard Tony Parker...

I just don't know how much support Shaq/Nash/Amare will get. Combined with our defensive capability against their team.

Spurs win


Damn I'm good

Mike D'Antoni: We're going to play (Game 3 at US Airways Center) Friday, and we're going to bust them. That's our mindset. We still don't have any doubt we can win this series."

Congratulations. This is pretty much in the book. There should be ZERO complaints about the refereeing, it had no factor in any of this. The better team is going to win and win with a statement. Defending champs for a reason.

TP went for a career high tonight and the Spurs have put the pressure on the Suns at their place going 3-0. Only one more win and that's all she wrote.

Wow. I didn't think we'd win game 3. We usually have a brainfart in at least road playoff game.

Just a fantastic win. Comprehensive.

All hail TP!!!

Congrads on owning our azzes again :banghead:

Pop is genius

-Kill Shaq on the pick n roll
-Exploit the perimeter with Parker/Manu since Marion isn't around anymore and our wing defense is crap
-Hack a Shaq to kill our offensive flow

Just a mo-effin genius

Would Marion have been much of difference maker if he were around?

Shaq's playing decently this series.
