First Loss at Home


There is always a first time and this time the San Antonio Spurs got their first loss at home to the Phoenix Suns. Tim Duncan, the highest scorer of the Spurs, got 36pts, 17 rebounds, and 4 assists [looks like he's back in action!]. Grant Hill haven't aged at all with 22pts, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 blocks. Suns who are in double-figures are Steve Nash [10pts, 10 assists], Amare Stoudemire [17pts], Leandro Barbosa [18pts], and Boris Diaw [11pts]. The San Antonio Spurs outrebounded the Phoenix Suns with 49 boards but that wasn't enough though. The game was tight even without Tony Parker and I am glad that Tim Duncan's numbers are back. Cheers to the Suns because they are the first team to beat the Spurs at the Alamo City this season.

Halftime

It's halftime guys and the Suns-Spurs game is close. Very close indeed, the Phoenix Suns leading by one pt 51-50 and Tim Duncan already has 24pts, 12 rebounds [a very nice double-double], and 2 turnovers. On the side of the Suns, the leading scorer is the veteran Grant Hill having 12pts and a block. Jacque Vaughn replaced Tony Parker, who's sported a sprained left ankle, as a starting point guard has 6pts and 4 assists. Steve Nash, of course, leads the Phoenix Suns in assists. There's still a lot of time and anything can happen on the next 24mins.
