The Spurs looked like they were going to catch the Suns napping as Alamo City Pro Hoops was playing game #9 of 9 of the Rodeo Trip coming in at 7-1. From the looks of it Suns Lead Man Hornacek reminded his Squad after the first frame that we need to get in Transition and force them to play at the Suns Pace...up and down!

After the Smoke cleared and the Phoenix Gorilla did what he does then Suns erased a 23-19 first frame deficit and went on a 28-12 second frame run that put the Spurs on "We need to get back Home..ASAP". The Suns after leading at the break 47-35 stretched that lead out to 74-57 after three and the Suns cruised after that to a 106-85 "W".

The Suns Bigs played well including the Morris Twins who combined for 34 points, seven boards, and five helpers. Ish Smith the top Reinforcement for Suns Star Guard Goran Dragic (8 pts 5 asst) played well as he came out of the Pen to net 15 points and grab seven boards. Channing Frye added 17 points and eight boards as he hit two Money balls as he stretches out the PHX Floor on Offense from the "Land of Plenty". The Spurs just found out what they knew all along is that these New Suns are terrific and super-athletic and fast all over the hardwood.

The Spurs end the Rodeo Trip at 7-2 which was a smashing success as Danny Green led the Spurs with 15 points. Dunc added 13 and grabbed five boards. At 40-16 and the logo's best W-L out of the Motel at 22-8...the Spurs are still a Team that is to be reckoned with as we head into March and April.
