2nd half thread
But if the Big Three DO play, then the Suns have already won. If Duncan, Parker and Ginobili play in this completely meaningless game, that means the Spurs are still hurting from getting swept mercilessly in last season's playoffs. And that means all the heartache from earlier in the decade has been permanently shifted to the Spurs.
