Dudley’s career night not enough against Spurs

Filed under MLB

Jared Dudley had a career high 27 points in his second straight start, but a poor third quarter was too much to come back from for the Suns as the San Antonio Spurs won 118-110 on Monday night.  Phoenix held a one point halftime lead, but were outscored 40-24 in the third quarter. Besides Dudley’s 27 [...]

Impressions on Suns/Magic deal

Sorry for the late response back for the deal that took place on Saturday, but I was busy losing my money in Vegas on video blackjack and at the sports book over the weekend.  Here is how the deal broke down. Phoenix receives Vince Carter, Mickael Pietrus, Marcin Gortat, Orlando’s 2011 first round pick and [...]

Suns escape in Lopez’s return

It was a little too close for comfort at times, but the Suns were able to pull out a hard fought 128-122 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday night to snap a three-game losing skid.  Minnesota held a seven-point lead with about eight minutes to go, but five consecutive three-pointers from Channing Frye and [...]

Suns lose heartbreaker to Grizzlies

The Suns came back from a double-digit fourth quarter deficit to send it into overtime, but Phoenix ran out of gas in the extra session and the Grizzlies won 104-98 to grab their first game on their three game road.  After winning three straight, the Suns have suddenly lost two games in a row. Phoenix [...]

Looking back at last night and previewing tonight

It might have been a different date, but the Suns 1o6-99 loss to the Trail Blazers last night felt real similar to the game that the two teams played to start off the season.  Like in their first matchup, the Suns had control of the game in the first three quarters, but a poor final [...]

Frye, bench big in Suns victory

Channing Frye’s 29 points and great play off the bench helped led the Suns to a 105-97 win over the Indiana Pacers on Friday night at U.S. Airways Center.  Phoenix’s win was their second straight against two quality opponents. For the second straight, the Suns defense was much improved.  They held Indiana to well under [...]

Suns hold on despite late fourth quarter surge from Warriors

In what was an extremely big night in the NBA with Lebron James returning to Cleveland, the Suns got a much needed 107-101 victory on the road in Golden State to even up their record on the season.  The Warriors had a mini run in remaining few minutes, but the Suns hit a couple of [...]

Inserting Warrick into starting lineup makes sense on several fronts

November 30, 2010 by kevin.bonneville  
Filed under MLB

The Suns are off until Thursday, which means there is little Suns news out there.  Big news came out on Sunday that Hakim Warrick was going to replace Hedo Turkoglu into the starting lineup.  In his first game as the starter, Warrick struggled while Turkoglu played really well off the pine.  Even though these two [...]

Suns blow huge lead in loss to Bulls

I figured it was best for me to sleep on last night’s game and instead write this blog on Thanksgiving day.  The first quarter last night was probably the best 12 minutes that the Suns have played up all year long to this date.  The offense was clicking on all cylinders with 36 points and [...]

Same old story for Suns in another road loss

Filed under MLB

It might have been a different night, in a different arena, against a different opponent, but it was the same old swan song for the Suns in their 123-105 loss to the Charlotte Bobcats on Saturday night.  Like in their two previous losses on this road trip, Phoenix couldn’t stop their opponent and their offense [...]
