Fantastic 2nd quarter for Saric and Oubre.

That's a big 3 by Book to get the lead back to 12 at Half cuz he had some bad possessions in the last couple minutes

Not that it really needs to be pointed out to anyone around here, but Spurs 3-11 from deep while the Suns are 5-14. That's the difference between tonight and the game from earlier in the week.

I guess making Forbes try to play defense is the only way to keep him from hitting 15 threes in a game.

Fun 2nd quarter. Oubre's been active, Saric has looked pretty good, Book is Book. DA's been pretty quiet and we've gotten nothing from the bench.

Spurs looked disorganized on offense in the second half. A number of quick threes without moving the ball.
Popps is probably screaming at them during halftime.
Not that I mind ...

The Spurs have three options on offense most of the time.

A) Scramble the defense for an open 3
B) Aldridge post up
C) DeRozan isolation

They didn't move the ball well enough to get clean looks and Saric has done very well against Aldridge. DeRozan did his usual thing, which is fine if the other two options are held in check.

I'm starting the campaign for the Suns to sign Bertans and Joe Harris in FA.

Booker's been busting his ass on defense to start the 2nd half.

Also, Dario almost brought the rim down on a dunk.

Sarcic is such a soft vagina around the rim.

No way. He uses his body very well. His problem is that he can't jump over a nickel.

Oubre got elbowed in the head by Bridges then got his head trampled on by Ayton while he was on the ground. Starting to remind me of TJ Warren with the head trauma bad luck.

Book just killing us with these fouls. He's got 5 now and staying in the game. We're kind of hanging on but this is also the "they have us right where they want us" point in every spurs game where we're up by 4-6-8 points and end up losing by 4-6-8 points.
