Was Suns -2.5, now SA -2, the Suns certainly can win without Stoudamire but SA should be favored by more - SA plays big in must win games - the absolutely have to have this game - and while Stoudamire is not Duncan or Nash he certainly is pretty good - it's a major loss on offense - completely eliminates their only half court offense - pick and roll - plus, Manu coming off a bad game usually plays well the next.

Without Stoudamire, <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Phoenix</st1:place></st1:City> wouldn't have been close in the last game...they are dead meat without any inside presence

stoudamire isn't that huge of a loss IMO. put Kurt Thomas on duncan and pray he doesn't get in foul trouble, then marion, nash, barbosa, and bell can hang with SA's guys.

Actually the line would have been Pho -4.5/5 if not for any suspensions. It opened lower on the possibility that there may be suspensions. I would say the line has been adjusted 7.5/8 points for the suspensions. Seems a bit steep to me.

Seymour likes the Spurs tonight. Shocker.

How can you not like them tonight? I think the series is still going to be a dog fight and anyone can win any game - this is sports - but it takes a true fool to bet hard earned money on the Suns tonight - a team that just lost its only inside presence going up against a team with the best low post player anyone under 40 can remember - the line has moved from PX -2.5 to SA -3.5 and is going higher.
