THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

[thesightless]

11 in a row.

nash has double doubles in every game.

amare also, double double's in every game/

marion has 4 triple doubles.

bell, diaw and barbosa all have double digit scoring too!!!!!!

WE ARE ON FIRE

during the streak, we played in the 4th highest scoring game ever, we are upping our defense, keeping opponents under 100 6 times, while foricng possessions in the 90s, and scoring more than 110 a few times.

i cant wait to get back into texas and rip the mavs and spurs a new one. the suns are rolling baby.

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

didnt they do this two years ago?

Suns are amazing to watch and by far the most exciting team in the NBA... when it comes down to the playoffs / end of the season they lose their stride and collapse, Nash doesnt hold up usually his back as it is damn hard to keep the pace that they run at night in and night out... Amare is unstoppable but when he isnt 100% they cant beat a good western conf team in a 7 game series... Id love to see them make it past the western conference but it always seems that in the end they lose steam later in the season...

by far the toughest team to stop when they have all their guns firing... Wconf playoffs are going to be interesting this year, esp with the emergence of Utah again... I think Phoenix is much better than Utah but have to beat the Mavs / Spurs after or before that, if not Lakers who gave them all they could handle last yr...

like I said though, with a healthy Amare, suns are the toughest match up in the west...
cheers

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

Yea they are on FIRE but we will see how they do in the playoffs. It seems as they always make a run like this somewhere in the season but can't seem to put together a 7 game series. Not that it matters what the Eastern Conference does because the West is so stacked but how about my Orlando Magic!!! They have one of the youngest lineups in the NBA if you take out Grant Hill and they have the best record in the East. Dwight Howard is pretty damn solid and to think he is just turned 21 last week I believe and is already in his 3rd season. I guess that isn't really anything different than any other young star in the league.

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

we have been a playoff team for the last two years since nash arrived.

year 1,- joe johnson, our shooting guaard broke his eye socket against the surs in game 1, and we took it to 7 games without him, and the pistons beat the spurs.

year2, we didnt have amare or thomas- so diaw and tim thomas were playing power forward and center..and we beat the lakers and clippers and lost to the mavs. no one will beat the mavs with boris diaw playing eric dampier and desugana giop while marion is outside the paint on dirk.

this year. we have a healthy amare, deep bench, raja bell is playing great perimeter defense and shooting well, barbosa is emerging and diaw is taking more steps.

amare, once fully back, will prove he is the best power forward/center in the league. remember this is the guy who career wise has held duncan under 15 and averaged 40 on the spurs. and they own the heat. our big problem is the Mavs.

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

I agree and this could be the year they finally pull it out but then again it could the Suns year. There is also a LONG season left so only time will tell. Every team will take their lumps and bruises and hopefully nobody gets hurt bad enough to make a series change like the past couple of years.

I'm not a big fan of Iverson but you have to watch out wherever he goes because he could take a championship team and destroy them inside out or he could take a mediocre team and turn them into a championship contender. I can not stand him as an athlete. I hate the style he plays. If you ask me he is just as bad as Marberry but at least Iverson puts up the numbers unlike "starberry".

[thesightless]

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

NAH. iverson is like arenas, tmac, carter, and kobe of past... they all hurt thier team instead of helping.

[Bryanw24]

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

^^^^^ then we are on the same page. I think if he goes to a team that is a contender now, you just go ahead and clean their name out of the playoffs because he WILL implode a team. He is the NBA's version of T.O. A great athlete just stfu and play and don't destroy your team. Did you see the interview with T.O.? Parcells said he is so excited about the direction of the Cowboys that he wants to come back and coach them next year but he will NOT unless T.O. is gone.

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

how come you are a suns fan sightless? i thought you followed the NY teams...

blazers won last night, 10-14 now, 3 straight road wins

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

i became a suns fan in the early 90's. my sister is amazing at basketball, she got a full ride and started 4 years for BC. she would beat my ass in hoops when we were younger. she was a knicks fan, and i couldnt go there, so i looked west. charles barkley, kevin johnson, dan marleje.... that was a group of good players who played great together, various skill sets all around.

then.. i fell out of b-ball for a long time, the post jordan era brought nothing but chumps and egos ,and the game itself slowed down, with heavy defense and no offense. but then, about 3 years ago, steve nash came back to the suns, and they began playing a "ruker park run and gun"style of game, with less defense and a ton more offense. it became exciting again. shooting, three pointers, and big guys in the lane who dont play the duncan/shaq boring post up game, but slash and dunk, and step out and shoot. they run, flow, move the ball, are completely unselfish and entertain. i try to watch some teams like the spurs, pistons, heat, etc and they are just boring.\

and the suns beat the heat last night, after a late game scare making it 12 wins in a row.

You see the white boy come off the bench for Miami? I don't even know his name but he made a crazy ass three point play then drilled a 3 ball to tie it before Nash took over.

[Garrick]

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

i don't think the game was ever tied. miami got within 4 or 5, but then phoenix pulled away.

[peloquin]

Re: THE Phoniex Suns everyone.

yeah it was a 5 point game... and the heat had a 3 pointer literally roll in and out, and the suns had it after that.
