Andres Nocioni started in place of the injured Andre Iguodala for the second straight game. [...]

Have the Suns hit rock bottom?

It is no secret that the Suns aren’t a very good basketball team right now and they might have hit the lowest point of the season after yesterday.  They had to come back from a 18-point deficit against the lowly Los Angeles Clippers and fell short in their comeback losing 108-103. The Suns wasted great [...]

Dudley’s career night not enough against Spurs

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

On a night where former Suns great Kevin Johnson was in the house, the Suns laid a real stinker at home in a 101-94 loss to the very familiar Portland Trail Blazers.  Ever since last year’s first round playoff, the Blazers have now won three straight over the Suns. If you took a quick glance [...]

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 [...]

Steve Nash’s 20 points and 17 assists and a lopsided third quarter gave the Suns an easy 125-108 victory over the Washington Wizards on Sunday night.  Suddenly, the Suns have won three straight and are starting to play good ball. Nash probably had his best game of the season on both sides of the court.  [...]

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 [...]
