Spurs, Suns prepare for game two
PHOENIX (AF) — Alter seeing his Spurs outre
bound Phoenix by a wide margin only to lose at
the tree-throw line, San Antonio t oach John Lucas
is thinking about making some adjustments.
'I may have to look at other combinations out on
the floor." Lucas said of tonight's game two in the
hest-of-seven Western Conference semifinal.
Tuesday night, the Suns played rubber-band
basketball, opening double-digit leads almost at
will before a surge by the Spurs made it i lose
again. Each team had just one field goal in the final
12:12 of the Suns' 98-89 victory.
"That was a game that we were in but we were
not in." Luras said. "Everything for us was a strug
gle; we never had any flow."
Phoenix coach Paul Westphul, whose team has
now won four straight postseason games, said he
was playing the same chess match as Lucas.
"They have a lot of versatility on their team and
John is a resourceful coach," Wostphal said. "I'm
sure they’ll throw whatever they have at us. and
whatever they throw, we ll try to fight back. I just
hope we have the answers.”
The Spurs had more rebounds (48-38) and field
goals (38-36) in game one The Suns' vaunted
bench failed to score in the first half and had only
six points until Oliver Miller and Danny Ainge
scored in the final 37 seconds
Charles Hark ley was five for 21 for the night and
finished with 18 points, and David Robinson of
San Antonio had 32 points. 10 reliounds and sev
on blocks.
And yot the Suns made it look easy just two
days after escaping u first-round series with Los
Angelos that was streti hud to the full five games
and an overtime after the Inkers won the first two
in Phoenix.
"To dig ourselves out of that hole Now 1 think
it's where it's going to pay dividends We feel so
confidant Wo feel we can play so mm It belter."
said Kevin lohnson, who had 25 points, seven
assists and five steals
Phoenix held San Antonio's second-loading
scorer in the playoffs. Sean Klliotl. to less than half
his average with eight points, two in the second
half, and Lucas said he was thinking of drastic
measures to protect the sleek small forward from
the influence of his native state,
"I might have to take Sean back to San Antonio
and then fly him in for the game," Lucas said
"Every time lie comes to Arizona, fie struggles a lit
tle bit."
Elliott agreed.
“I don't know what it is Of all the years I've
lieen in the league I've only played two good
games here." said Elliott, who grew up in Tin son
and played his college ball for Arizona fh* said it
wasn't the homecoming that took him out of Ins
game.
"There are just some plac es you don't play
good." he- said
