Any team with Steve Nash on the floor is going to be tough to beat. Suns played a small team but they are young and athletic. With Barbosa out, the matchups swung to favor the Spurs in the 2nd half. Also, Pop putting Nazr on Boris Diaw really cut down on Diaw's drives.
You know what happened.this was a win for us, this shouldve been a blowout win for us, wtf happen
We played well in spurts.
Dallas by 37 over Detroit in Dallas after a Detroit win the night before.
I'm telling you that it is tough to get it going on the road after winning a game the previous night no matter who you are or how good you are.
Why not make your first loss a real dozzy.
Its called, playing an 82 game season!
Spurs will be fine! Trust me.
suns were lucky barry and manu are still hurt and finely first game back
if amare was playing spurs d would have been different along with their o
amare is a star and it would effect how spurs guard on what they do on o
suns went small that is not spurs strength
I agree with that statement Solid D.
Refs really seemed against us in the fourth
What, Detroit Lost?
Ducks, don't take this the wrong way or anything, but why do you always call Finley, finely?
I've noticed it dozens of times, so I'm thinking that it is not a typo.
These refs just need their eyes checked, they made a number of mistakes
Yeah, we got some bad calls. That's true.
because ducks can not spell maybe I should just call him mike
I'm sure he's just a moron.Ducks, don't take this the wrong way or anything, but why do you always call Finley, finely?

it takes one to know one
pop should have stuck with the money lineup in 2nd period longer. horry, duncan, manu, parker and bowen. they pushed the lead a bit then he made weird subs and the d disappeared. we still have 2 months of tinkering to go tho... then we can start shutting people down consistently.
and people thought the Suns would make up excues...Finely didn't look hurt to me...Manu looked fine..(it's not my fault Bell can play some D)and Barry come on ..The Spurs already have a very deep bench..
This game was lost by the Suns we really could have won..And just think we only lost by 6(with the chance to take the lead several times)..and we 1.Don't have our best Player Amare 2.Don't have LB who had 14points before half and is now going to be out 2-4weeks 3.Boris Diaw hurt his ankle in this game 4.Kurt Thomas was foulded out in like15min.
The Spurs won fair...but i'm very proud of the Suns..and really i hope for a #1 seat Spurs and a #8 Suns in the 1st round playoffs!!!
Go Suns!!!
We just went from 3rd to 1st place in Western Conference on the standings
manu was in foul trouble. he got a clean block on marion too, that call was bad. lots of bad calls on both teams this game. spurs coulda shot way better from the line. van exel is a black hole, does he ever pass? we did much better with him on the pine...
Spurs kicked ass.
Suns fought hard but couldn't close the deal.
Freaking floping Ginobili takes out Barbosa.
If I were Suns fan I would also be proud of them.
They did a great job in a back to back against the champs on a road.
"Freaking floping Ginobili takes out Barbosa"
May have been the key "play" in the game.
He was playing great, and fun to watch.
Hope he's not out long.
Let's us know what the docs say.
Almost identical to Manu falling against Dirk's leg in 03 WCF, with similar "key" results.
It was a chain reaction actually initiated by Raja Bell. Raja sent a flying elbow to Manu's head and Manu fell to the floor, crashing into Barbosa's left leg.Suns fought hard but couldn't close the deal.
Freaking floping Ginobili takes out Barbosa.
oh whatever...That's just Manu's lame excuse to try to get a foul on Bell..mean while Barobosa is lying on the groud in pain and Manu is already have way into the locker room.I was starting to like Manu again...but not anymore..There's talk about Leandro being out longer than Amare!!! but i hope it's just for 2-4weeks.
If this is true, that's the worst a sprain ever... not only that, but I'll hang myself. I love the brazilian and the only delight I had thus far has been the play of Barbosa.
There was a Raja elbow, but if Manu wasn't such a prissy little girl all the time, flopping to taddle on the defenders, then prehaps Barbosa wouldn't be injured and the Suns might be 4-3.
Who knows, but that play just summizes the Suns-v-Spurs matchups. Even when Phoenix wins (or is winning), something will happen where they lose.
Whether it's a meaningless win vs. a Duncan/Manu-less Spurs team or Manu kamikaziin' little Leo's knee.
