Well i'm not epxecting any miracle game again, however i wouldn't put it past these two teams. The Suns are gonna be P*ssed about losing game one so i expect Shaq especially to come out breathing fire. Hopefully we can get him locked down with foul troubleagain. Most importantly for this game is our wings getting off to a good start. Had we shot well in game one from the start i'm sure we would of won alot more comfortably.


Let's go Spurs!! :clap:

I predict the Suns race out to a double digit lead and then give it all back in the 4th quarter when they can't get any key stops and make mental errors on offense, letting the Spurs win by 5. Man it feels good when your team owns another team.

Game One: Hill's groin slowed him.... Nash had the nasty flu... Shaq sat out most of the entire first half...

With all the above going against the SUNS it still took the mighty Spurs two OT's to beat them.

Spurs are toast in games 2-6.

I admire his excuses.

Anyways, we cannot afford to go down early. Shaq and Amare are notorious for making stupid fouls, both have been plagued their entire careers with that. We just need to do what we do best and the rest will come. Attack the basket with Gino, TP and TD. Hopefully our shooters shots are falling.

Didn't Manu just have the exact same injury as Grant Hill?


oh my bad, it's a legit excuse for losing to Suns whiny fans (not the good fans who suck it up and take it on the chin).

Anyways it's all good to blame injuries, calls etc for losing but in reality you have to be held accountable. If Hill was bothered then it's his own damn fault for playing, he should of told his coach he wasn't ready and sit out like Horry has for the Spurs. If you're on the court then there's no excuses i'm sorry, Hill has no one to blame but himself. Sorry Suns fans but that's just how the ball bounces.

I doubt we'll open as badly on offense as we did in Game 1. Should be another W!

Well I expect for us to have more of a flow to start off the game. I think going 2-0 will really fracture the Suns spirit , when you consider that they know we can go in their house and get W's. I believe they are 2-8 when facing us in the playoffs at home.

I'm sticking to my prediction of Spurs in 5.

First off, great sig Magz!

For this game, get the Suns frontcourt in foul trouble. Don't start the game off struggling on offense and keep from having to make comebacks from large deficits. If the Spurs can keep a strong lead on the Suns, don't lose that hold. Keep that distance until that clock reaches zero and win this game.

Very unlike a Suns fan to use excuses to explain a loss.

Likewise.

Any more games like Game 1 and I'm going to need to get fitted for a pacemaker.

As a Jazzfan, I need you guys to lose, but I love the Spurs more than the Suns, so kick some butt!

I'd be more worried about the Lakers than our side of the bracket if I were a Jazz fan.
