00:02 The Suns and the Spurs, Phoenix dominant throughout the opening half, Donnie.
00:07 They were up by 18 entering the second half and that halftime locker room break.
00:13 And then it was San Antonio rallying back from 14 down in the fourth quarter
00:19 to come all the way back in the final seconds of the game to win.
00:23 Kelden Johnson stripped Kevin Durant with a couple of ticks remaining and
00:28 made the winning layup with 1.2 seconds remaining in regulation.
00:33 San Antonio wins, Donnie, 115-114 outright as a seven point underdog.
00:39 But that final lead for San Antonio was the only lead, Donnie,
00:44 the Spurs had all 60 minutes long, 48 minutes.
00:46 >> Yeah, yes, I was watching a little match yesterday, staying up a little bit
00:50 for the Major League Baseball game, but sort of had an eye on the NBA,
00:52 which is what was going on, because it was easy to keep track of with only three games.
00:56 I had a Julius Randall play last night, over eight rebounds.
00:59 He got the ten, which is a nice cash, but that's sort of side eye on the Suns game.
01:02 Cuz yesterday we broke the game down, and I said, you know what?
01:05 I don't care that Booker's gonna be out for this game, Bradley Beal.
01:08 As long as you got Kevin Durant, you should be able to wipe the floor with
01:10 the Spurs because they're not ready to win yet.
01:12 They're just trying to figure out their team identity.
01:14 And early in that basketball game, 27 to 18 here for the Suns in the first quarter,
01:18 36 to 27 in the second quarter.
01:20 That minus seven to seven and a half, that should be an easy one,
01:23 just like I thought.
01:24 Never in a million years did I check the score waking up this morning,
01:26 figuring that the Spurs won the basketball game outright against the Suns.
01:31 Now, two things here.
01:32 I like the way Webb and Yama came back in the second half.
01:34 They didn't have a great first half here, which is good to see.
01:36 But also, the Phoenix Suns just figuring that they can have load management
01:41 nights this early in the season and not have to catch up to them.
01:44 They're two and two right now here on the season.
01:46 Maybe that spurs them, no pun intended, to start playing more of their starters,
01:50 as opposed to just rolling the basketball out early in the year, expecting wins here.
01:54 That's a huge win for the Spurs franchise now, two and two,
01:57 and getting one on the road against the Suns after getting pulverized
02:00 against the Clippers.
