Regular Season Game 4: Visiting the Suns

Incidentally the only full NBA game I've seen this season thus far was the Suns losing to the Blazers on opening night.

	SPURS	SUNS
PG	Tony Parker	Steve Nash
SG	Manu Ginobili	Jason Richardson
SF	Richard Jefferson	Grant Hill
PF	DeJuan Blair	Hedo Turkoglu
C	Tim Duncan	Robin Lopez
Bench	Gary Neal	Goran Dragic
	James Anderson	Josh Childress
	Bobby Simmons	Jared Dudley
	Antonio McDyess	Hakim Warrick
	Tiago Splitter	Channing Frye

I don't normally consider any bench matchup to be "key" but in this case I think I'll make an exception.  Why?  Well, because Hedo has been downright disappointing (there's a reason they played Rashard Lewis instead of Hedo at 4 in Orlando) and Hakim Warrick has been a huge spark plug off the bench, connecting with a lot of electrifying pick-and-roll plays with Nash.  Ultimately what this game boils down to is containing Steve Nash.  He's the key cog that will keep this team moving, and everything else moves off of him.  Not much else to be said.  I'm holding out on George Hill since I expect Pop to be extra careful with him, especially this early in the season, where we have the time buffer to do so.  For those of you that don't know what I'm talking about, George Hill injured his shoulder after an awkward fall due to a flagrant foul from Craig Smith on a layup.
