EDIT: Should've said TD vs. Shaq as always.

Considering the past week had with his motormouth. Is he through running it yet?

SD, Suns will of course play Shaq on TD, and Hill/Barnes on Bonner. I'm pretty sure our coaching staff isn't handicapped..

We're starting Barnes, not Barbosa(I think.)

Roger Mason wit another 3ball to get the Spurs close to 1

Then Ime Udoka cuts to the basket for a 2 plus 1 play with Nash getting the foul.

The more the merrier. Although this is a rival game, not really feelin it much today. I thnk the Spurs are leading 53-45 nearing the halftime mark if I'm not mistaken.

Post #14 » by **SD2042** » Sun Mar 8, 2009 8:36 pm

The Spurs close the first half wit a 13-0 run against the Suns.

58-45 Spurs over the Suns at the half.

why was that over the back not called on duncan? clearly it was over the back. It doesn't matter anyway, we are not making the playoffs because our GM is a bleeping buffoon.

Parker's having another amazing game and Duncan's played great as well, now we just need to close these guys out.

Suns aren't rivals. The other team has to show up for it to be a rivalry.

They halfway showed up and really screwed up in the end. TP really turned it up in the second half on the Suns ending up with 30pts for the game. TD played well as always. Roger Mason played solid on the perimeter knocking down the neccessary 3balls to keep the Suns at bay. Fin also came through with 11pts for the Spurs.

Pretty big show of respect by Pop for George Hill today. I think the guarded Nash the entire 4th quarter.

It was a solid win. Parker loves to play at a fast paced game.

I liked our poise down the stretch. WE lost the lead but we didn't panic and just kept doing what we always do and secured the win.
