Suns (56-18) @ Spurs (53-21) Game Blog -- 4/5

Umm.. Manu has played at least 10 minutes.

oops, I should have put that in blue font.

[Cry Havoc]

Is it just me, or does it feel like we've been dominating the boards for this game?

[aaronstampler]

Look at the shots he's gotten. One lay up that was "blocked" because the refs are blind, two threes on a 2 for 1 at the end of the quarter, and a tough lay up in traffic on a desperation attempt at the end of the shot clock. Coach hasn't exactly gone out of his way to call his number.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Good edit.

If Manu is going to let Raja Bell turn into Kobe, Pop isn't going to let him keep playing.

Pop got pissed at Manu when Bell made that three inside Manu's shirt.

Pop needs to relax a little.

[jaespur21]

yup weve done well on boards prolly cuz we missed a lot of easy shots

[itzsoweezee]

oh damn, i didn't realize the shooting %'s were that close together



I hope we see a tad bit more elson to keep away from small ball in the 2nd half even though elson has been pretty bad this game

he's rebounding great and playing decent defense. that's all we need out of the center position. there's a reason the suns are shooting 34% and it has everything to do w/ not playing small ball

Or Manu could play defense. . .

[Amuseddaysleeper]

i want to see the spurs take it to the rim hard


the suns don't have much in the way of interior D so no sens ein settling fo routside jumpers

[Budkin]

16 points in the second quarter? Pathetic. Spurs better pick it up in the second half. How the do the Suns have the lead?

[Phil Hellmuth]

over or under is 99.5 for 2nd half? u think it goes over???

Elson was horrible. He got a lot of rebounds because the shooting percentages were so low on both sides, not because he's ripping down boards.

[AnkleBreaker21]

parker needs to step it up

[Trainwreck2100]

Or Manu could play defense. . .

[TDfan2007]

Manu needs to step up and Tim needs to stop being worthless around the rim.

[Trainwreck2100]

parker needs to step it up

Gino needs to take this over

[nkdlunch]

How many layups has DUncan missed????

ing pathetic

[jaespur21]

^but theyre packing the paint with bodies

[Amuseddaysleeper]

he's 0-4 but does have 7 boards so on that

[nkdlunch]

If Pop doesn't play our big 3 together for at least 10 mins, we have no chance

[TDfan2007]

that is how you're supposed to do it Tim.

[aaronstampler]

Amare can't guard him, but I agree with the other guy, with Thomas we gotta get it to the other two.

[resistanze]

LMAO Duncan

[TDfan2007]

oh Tim just got PWNED by Marion.

[Pugglekicker_21]

How the do the Suns have the lead?

16 points in the second quarter

there's your answer.

[TDfan2007]

Something tells me that's going to kill Tim's aggressiveness a bit.
