NEW YORK — The Spurs have ended the Suns' season like clockwork . . . four times in their last five playoff appearances.
It's well-documented the lone time the tables were turned (2000), Tim Duncan was absent due to injury.
Though not the defensive juggernaut it used to be, San Antonio is going to drag you down to its pace no matter what. Phoenix better be prepared to trade stops with the Spurs instead of trading baskets.
