Last night was a good win but . . .

There were still too many times when the sonics players got in the lane and took the 10-12 uncontested jumper. I believe we got a little lucky because some of their shots didn't go down, but if we play PHO in the WCF, Steve Nash will surely make 94.957483% of those shots. I found myself screaming at the TV everytime they shot one of these uncontested jumpers. Damn at least put your hands up and make it a little bit harder on them.

i agree, but think of this,

would you dare Ridenour to shoot more than Steve Nash?? Yeah, thats what I think they did, and alot of times Ridenour and Allen and others missed.


Ray Allen had another for him, mediocre shooting night, thats how the SPurs won.

With the Sonics, it was about defending the pick and roll. Pop picked his poison--make Seattle beat us from the outside but don't give up easy buckets. It hurt in game four but worked in 5 and 6.

Phoenix will be a different set of matchups and challenges.
