Spurs, Suns set for game 3
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — It’s like the
old days for David Robinson.
He’s carrying the offensive load for
the San Antonio
Spurs in the absence
of Tim Duncan.
Robinson had 25
points and 15 re
bounds Tuesday in
Game2 against the
Phoenix Suns as the
Spurs evened their
best-of-five playoff
series 1-1.
Game 3 is Saturday in Phoenix.
It has yet to be determined if Duncan,
who has torn cartilage in his left knee,
will play.
“It’s kind of a distraction because we
don’t know his status. We know that it’s
a problem with his knee and that it gets
swollen,” Robinson said. ”1 haven’t
seen him in any action, and that tells me
that he’s not ready.”
Robinson and Duncan, the MVP of
the NBA Finals last year, led the Spurs to
their lirst championship last season.
Duncan dominated on offense and
Robinson anchored the defense.
Now Robinson is having to step up
his scoring, much as the 7-foot-1 center
did early in his career before Duncan ar
rived. Aside from occasional nagging in
juries, Robinson has been in good shape.
“He gave us everything he has. His
body has been feeling good,” said Spurs
coach Gregg Popovich. “We are an in
side-oriented team, and a big part of that
(Duncan) is gone. David doing what he
did is good.”
San Antonio lost the first game of
the series in the Alamodome 72-70 on
Saturday as Robinson was held to 1 1
points.
In the second game, Robinson, Avery
Johnson and Sean Elliott produced, giv
ing San Antonio a 14-point lead by half
time and an 85-70 victory.
“The only thing we had a problem
defending was when they ran the pick
and roll with Avery and David,” said
Penny Hardaway of the Suns. “When
David would get back out and Avery
would kick the ball to him, then David
would hit the shot.”
Phoenix coach Scott Ski les said
Robinson and the Spurs made the adjust
ments they needed to win without Dun
can.
“In the first half we were soft and
let Robinson catch the ball where he
wanted it,” Skiles said. “We made it
more difficult for him in the third. We
held him, but we couldn’t convert our
opportunities.”
Robinson led a 17-3 Spurs run in the
second quarter that gave the team the
cushion it needed to overcome the Suns’
defensive pressure in the third.
But the Suns shot poorly in the fourth,
and Johnson scored 12 of his 21 points in
the final period. Elliott, who returned in
March after a kidney transplant, played a
season-high 36 minutes and had 13
points and 10 rebounds.
The Suns hope to capitalize on the split
they got in San Antonio. They’re.aiming
to prevent an early rally like the one the
Spurs had before halftime Tuesday.
“If we can stay mentally tough we
can stop these spurts,” said Suns guard
Kevin Johnson. “It’s a three-game se
ries now. and we should be able to get
it back.”
DUNCAN
Ryan in good condition after surgery
ROUND ROCK (AP) — Hall of Earner Nolan Ryan is re
covering well after a double bypass operation and should
leave the hospital this week, his doctor and a spokesman for
his baseball team said Wednesday.
“The boss is doing good,” said J.J. Gottsch, public rela
tions director for the minor league Round Rock Express.
“He’s recovering faster than they anticipated. He most like
ly will be out in the next couple of days.”
Dr. Mark Felger, Ryan’s heart surgeon, issued a brief
statement saying Ryan is “recovering uneventfully and
should be home in the next day or two.”
Baseball's career leader in strikeouts and no-hitters was
in Round Rock on Sunday for a Texas League game between
the Express and Midland.
Ryan went to a Round Rock hospital after experiencing
shortness of breath, tingling in his arms, and chest pains
while walking around the stadium. He was moved to the
Fleart Hospital of Austin, where he was rushed into
surgery. Tests revealed a near-total blockage in a main
artery to his heart.
Doctors said Ryan had severe blockage in his left coro
nary artery, >vhich supplies 75 percent of the blood to the
heart. An osteal lesion had deiteloped where the left coronary
artery met the aorta, resulting in blockage that ranged from
50 percent to 90 percent because of spasms in the artery.
Gottsch said doctors report the usual recovery time for the
operation is a week to 10 days, but Ryan has been recover
ing nearly with the speed of one of his pitches.
“This is really good for him. He's not the type to sit
around,” Gottsch said.
Gottsch said Ryan’s wife, Ruth, likely will drive him home
to Alvin, near Houston, where he will continue recuperating.
Ryan was a first-ballot Hall of Earner in 1999. He holds
or shares 48 major league, American League or National
League records. During a record 27 seasons in the majors,
his blistering fastballs gave him the records in strikeouts with
5,714 and no-hitters with seven. He retired in 1993 with the
Texas Rangers.
Ryan, his son Reid and Houston businessman Don
Sanders purchased the Houston Astros’ Double-A affiliate
and this year moved it from Jackson, Miss., to a new, $25
million stadium located just north of Austin.
