What a strange game. That first quick foul on Tim Duncan totally took him out of his game in the first half. He obviously believes in ref conspiracy theories and thought they were trying to "even things up" by taking him out of the game and he turned into "Timid Tim"..
I wasn't worried even when they were down by 15. I had a couple friends call me in the second quarter and I told them that Spurs were playing well and would come back. Spurs were playing their game, controlling the tempo, playing good defense, moving the ball well, getting open shots etc.They just COULD NOT get a shot to fall and Marion was on fire.
Whew! Finally weathered the storm and it was a great win. Phychologically this was a much better win than if they had gone in there and blown them out and played the bench in the 4th. Suns thought they had the game won and the upset. Can't wait for Friday. Should be one heck of a game.
