I guess we're lucky to only be down 7 considering we're shooting 36% from the field with only four 3s. Book's in a major funk and no one else is really able to step up. Gotta get back to the ball movement and try for some easy baskets.

How did the Suns lose that challenge ? Booker was fouled, the contact was there. :shock:

At the same time, Suns can't think just because Wemby and other Spurs starters are out that it's going to be an easy win. Still got to earn the W.

I don’t you can challenge a no-call? Regardless the call was out off Book, which is what we were challenging, and he did touch it when out of bounds. It just wasn’t a challenge we were going to win, so would have been better to save it for later in the game.

These refs...I feel like a bunch of them are new/young and just can't handle the NBA. Should've been a foul on the Williams dunk with a review for a flagrant and then they T up Brooks because he let them know they should've called a delay on game on the Spurs.

Crazy lineup right now: Gillespie/Goodwin/Booker/Livers/Oso.

Having to watch with the sound down, as I’ve got the Spurs call team (which is not enjoyable at all!)

I haven't looked up the stats, but it seems like Goodwin and Gillespie are playing great tonight.

That last 3 by Booker he had his foot on the line. I replayed to be sure. So far they haven't taken the extra point away.

Really good, gritty win in a game where it certainly didn’t all go their way. This team is such a difference to last season’s in all the best ways.

Goodwin and Brooks. Players of the game. Williams was great as well.

I'll watch the replay since I missed it. It seems we are down to an 8 man rotation with Green and Grayson out. Glad to get the W vs. a really scrappy Spurs team.
Go Suns!

What a tale of two halves. First half was very frustrating and we couldn't buy a bucket. Second half we wore them down and took over. Big game from Brooks.

It was. I try not to blame the refs but once again it felt lopsided tonight.

Sean Elliot is the worst! Seems like a nice guy but he's hard to listen to due to his homerism.

Could not agree more. Back when I first started watching the NBA I think the Suns had some interest in him and much was made of him having played for the U of A so I always wanted to root for him. But every time I listen to him on a Spurs broadcast it makes me question my own life choices.
