Nash is a baby...

Duncan has done the same thing before, had a bad game at the end, followed by a great game at the end. This is the mark of a real player. Lets see how Duncan finishes the series. The best hands of any big man ever. Enjoy it now as you will not see this type of hand eye coordination from a man this big again.

Phoenix played a hell of a game. They hit their shots and the Spurs did not in crunch time. Hats off to the Suns. They showed tremendous grit in that game. Raja Bell and Kurt Thomas have had a huge toughness impact on this team. Nash is a wonderful competitor. I really like the way Phoenix plays now as opposed to prior years. Hope this goes 7 as it is great basketball and really fun to watch for me. This is by far the best series of any played so far, its not even close.

Hey i've got the Spurs-Pistons on a future bet and if the last game for both teams is any indication of what lies ahead...i'm screwed.

I hope they step it up. They're forcing me to watch the games now and i'm not happy with what i'm seeing.

Utah looks deadly.

Utah is an ugly tough team just like the Spurs.
Phoenix is finally playing defense and I am also worried for a diff. reason. They did not give up, which is something to be admired. Chicago has found a way to score but I think its a bit too late. Detroit is acting like the fat cat again, they have done this before.

The Phoenix/Spurs series so far has been great entertainment and very good basketball. Two very good teams in diff. ways. I must give credit to Phoenix because they were so easy before, they just crumbled. They finally played very determined defensively at the end of a game.
I also am amused as the Spurs have always been considered soft. Cant win with David Robinson, too nice. Cant win with Duncan, too nice. Cant win with Parker, too nice. And now one would think the Spurs are the Oakland Raiders. Its funny. We are an old team playing a young strong pup and pulling out all the tricks being overmatched athletically.
If the Spurs do not do something significant in the off-season it will be a long rebuilding period. We are flat out old and experience only goes so far.
