suns 2 - spurs 2

What a game! The Suns were down by as many as 11 points on a lot of occassions. The Spurs were running their kind of game starting in the second quarter going through most of the fourth as well. The Suns fought very hard during the third and fourth quarters, getting 32 points in each. They allowed the Spurs 35 points in the third, so the 32 didn't seem to matter, but they only allowed 18 points in the fourth with great defensive stops and smart plays. Nash got 24 points and 15 assists. Stat was one rebound away from a double double with 26 points and 9 rebounds. Marion had 12 points and 12 rebounds. The Suns won the rebounding category by 10 boards, not something you see everyday. We even had more offensive rebounds. The kicker to the game was when the Suns had just gotten the lead at the end of the game, less than a minute to go, and Nash was dribbling down the court. Robert Horry then body checked Nash into the scorer's table. The team was insensed. Raja Bell got in Horry's face, and the teams pretty much cleared the benches. Men were holding each other back. Even Nash got back in Horry's face. Nash does not get angry easily, and he was furious. Just see for yourself in the pictures below. The Suns now tied up the series 2 - 2. The Suns won 104 - 98. The Suns didn't even have the lead after the early part of the second quarter, but they rallied at the end of the fourth to even it all up. The Suns play again at home on Wednesday. GO SUNS!
