We need big games from our X- factors - Frye, Hill (defense), and J-Rich to win this one.

Need to start out hot because this one will be real hard to come back.. with the crowd and refs

Anyone know who's reffing tonight? I really hope its a vet crew (but not company man dick bavetta)... they are usually less intimidated by a loud crowds
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

Also I felt at the beginning that the "X" factor was our strong bench play.

Spurs Bench
FGA-FGM 10-22
24 pts
8 REB
9 AST
5 TO
5 STL
3 BLK
66 min played 27.5 percent of the game

Suns Bench
FGA-FGM 11-28
31pts
20 REB
9 AST
3 TO
4 STL
0 BLK
90 min played 37.5 percent of the game.

Now the numbers aren't glaring except for rebounds. 9 OFF rebounds (for the bench) to the Spurs (1). To me if our second unit has that much hustle and heart ( i.e. Dudley) then we WILL be tough to beat no matter who plays us.

If our Bench out plays theirs I think we win.

What ever happened to Boobie Gibson? Thought he was gonna be a pretty good backup PG a couple years ago. I forgot he even existed till right now. Apparently he only plays garbage minutes now.

I wish he'd played this way all season. Suns could have been in first.
