fifty-six and nineteen

The Suns lost a hard one in San Antonio last night. The Spurs came out, played their game, and it was a defensive night. We're mostly an offensive team; we love to score and push the ball up the floor; but last night we had to play some good defense ourselves, and we did. The Suns (56 - 19) could have come back from a solid deficit, but each time they played a little sloppy and let the Spurs (54 - 21) get the lead back to larger numbers. The Spurs ended up keeping the Suns to only 37 points in the fist half. The Suns ended up losing by 7, 92 - 85. Bell had 11 points and 13 rebounds. All starters for the Suns ended up with double digits in scoring. Tony Parker took on the Suns by himself with 35 points. The Spurs even beat us in the assists column; something not done really at all this season. We couldn't hit our threes, either. 38.6% shooting for the Suns...also not really done this season. The Suns took on the NOK Hornets (35 - 40) next. GO SUNS!
