| 2008 NBA Playoffs Round 2: San Antonio SPURS win over New Orleans HORNETS |
And they thought they couldn't make it.
Yes, a lot of talk for the couple of days was the bet that the San Antonio Spurs would not be able to pull through the Game 7 of the series against the New Orleans Hornets. Like many times in the past, the often dubbed 'boring' Spurs did it again, shocking a lot of basketball enthusiasts. It would have seemed to a lot, even to yours truly, that the Spurs would be definitely hard pressed, and they were. Yet without giving up hope, they managed to win Game 7 by having their first win away from home since the series started. If you had been following, you would understand how scared I was. But that is all done and gone now.
The Spurs won against the Hornets with a score of 91-82. I wanted to scream, but I couldn't really..but hey, they won!!! Yey!
Now the new challenge: Western Conference Finals San Antonio Spurs vs. Los Angeles Lakers.
GO SPURS, GO!!!!

| SPURS vs SUNS Game 2: SPURS Win Again! |
What was that they said? Spurs winning just ONE game at Home? Hah! Think again! The San Antonio SPURS won Game 2 of the Round 1: SPURS vs SUNS with 102-96. Sending the Phoenix SUNS packing with a 2 game loss for the series.
This time around, Tony Parker scored 32 points, while Manu Ginobili added 29 points. Tim Duncan put in 19 points for the game, kept their home court advantage in tact and play Game 3 in Arizona.
Despite Shaq's comments after their first game declaring that the "floppers prevailed" in the first game, this time around Shaq was more kinder in his praise saying that both Ginobili and Parker played "fabulous." (I [heart] Shaq)
As for Stoudamire, he was quoted saying, "One of these years we’re going to beat these guys. I hope it’s this year.”
The Suns will have to find a solution for Parker and Ginobili if they want to get back into the series. To which Grant Hill commented, "The whole league is trying to do that."
---
Well, I wish the Suns good luck. And an even bigger Good Luck to the Spurs. Awesome as they may be, they still have been know to have a few bad games in their pockets when away from home. My fingers are crossed, and I pray for their success.
GO, SPURS! GO!

About Me: even when she has fairy wings on, this girl is anything BUT dainty. perhaps the size, the weight, and the personality alone are just too much for her to be considered delicate, prim, proper, and refined. this girl with the mud smudged cheeks has been down on the ground one to many times. these times forced her to be tougher, smarter, and more savvy than she has ever been. perhaps she will always be, never dainty.
