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."

Injured forward Grant Hill - scoreless in 20 minutes in Game 2 - had a magnetic resonance imaging exam on his midsection. Results were not available. D'Antoni told Hill not to play Game 3 unless he is 100 percent. In hindsight, Hill wondered if he should have sat out Game 2.

"You get to the arena, you get to the game and you always feel like, 'You know what? I think I can play,"' Hill said. "It's gotten me in trouble before. I just have to be smart about it.

D'Antoni said Hill will not play Game 3 if he is not at full speed.

"If he's healthy enough to really exert himself and run and really play the way he can, then he'll play," Suns General Manager Steve Kerr said. "If not, he won't play. He has to determine that. We have to determine that as a group. He wasn't right the first two games. Grant is such a competitor and a gamer that he really wanted to play."

If Hill does not start, Leandro Barbosa would. Phoenix was 10-2 this season with Barbosa starting and Barbosa, who needs a lift, has been a better player as a start with 53 percent shooting and 21 points per game.
