The one time we want Graham to shoot a 3 he fakes steps in and misses a middy.

Yeah effort blows. But we are getting picked apart by a real contender.

That's nice and all but you can make a tribute in many different ways without looking stupid.

Lol well there's no colour for you! You must hate the Pistons blue ones...


Well I hate the Pistons so it doesn't matter, but their teal jerseys are pretty stupid. :lol:

And does this tribe have something against purple or white? Why cant they do their tribute with normal Phoenix Suns colors?

1ST Q: SPURS 25 SUNS 42

When you allow 62.5% and 50% from 3. Oof.

But this may be one of those Pop lighting a fuse under our collective asses for the effort. Don't like how we are allowing easy baskets down low.

Julian with 10 is great.

Us with only 2-8 from 3 hurts.

Us not contesting the arc well or with vigor hurts as much.

Missed bunnies, overwhelmed everywhere else, and we look shell shocked. It shouldn't but does affect effort.

Let's at least do one thing well, one play at a time.

Man I hadn't even finished the 1ST Q write up before Pop called a timeout in the 2ND. Wowow.

Hope Doug will be ok...

I think it's more about the tribal colours featured. Not sure which ones have purple or orange, but the half court logo has different colours from the jersey still. I like the idea but again wish light colours were home team still.

2ND Q: SPURS 51 SUNS 69

Well we were within 1 point in the 2ND Q and trimmed a 32-point lead to 18. It's something.

We got blitzed by their many pronged O threats. But we tended to stop thinking - too many O boards against after we didn't pick up guys to box out, no hard contests and allowing drives down the middle without much resistance.

Dan just said we finished on a 21-8 run which is a good sign.

Combine that with some actual physicality and we can make more of a game of it.

We keep overloading on one side and not moving with sureness, like we don't quite know where to be.

I'm watching on Spectrum in Austin. Feel lucky to not have to rely on feeds based on what you're saying.
