David Stern still a fool

Date November 9, 2007

Props to the Phoenix media. I mean, seriously…props to you.
David Stern came to town to announce that Phoenix won the 2009 NBA All-Star game and instead of treating him nice and staying on topic, the local personalities took no prisoners and grilled Stern in their first chance to see him since the suspensions of Amare […]

Amare Stoudemire out against Cleveland

Date November 4, 2007

Fox Sports Net Arizona just reported that Amare Stoudemire wont play tonight due to a sore knee, the same one that he had the arthroscopic surgery on in October.
This cannot be a good thing and of course the idea of another microfracture surgery being needed is running through all our heads.
Not a great weekend for […]

The Suns get lambasted by the Lakers

Date November 2, 2007

lam·baste (lm-bst)
tr.v. lam·bast·ed, lam·bast·ing, lam·bastes Informal
1. To give a thrashing to; beat. See Synonyms at beat.
Yup, that sums it up. I hope I never have to witness that again. A 119-98 thumping.
How do you possibly let things get so out of control that you are down 30+ to the L.A. Lakers in your season […]

Phoenix Suns win opener on the road

Date November 1, 2007

Yes, the Phoenix Suns won and that’s great.
But if I have to go all season banging my head against the wall watching us get owned on the defensive glass, I’ll go crazy.
Regardless, it was a good win for the Suns, who started off completely out of sorts, turning the ball over, looking rusty, awkward and […]

Purple back in the house

Date November 1, 2007

It’s time. Again.
The Phoenix Suns hit the floor tonight against the Seattle Supersonics and kick off another run at the NBA title.
There are so many questions this year. Can Grant Hill stay healthy? Can Amare Stoudemire stay healthy? Can everyone stay healthy? The team has been great at avoiding big time injuries lately, so I […]

Steve Nash still upset at David Stern

Date October 30, 2007

You hear athletes talk about how things don’t bother them, how they’ve moved on to face the task at hand, forgetting entirely things that happened in the past.
It’s nice to know that they still hold grudges, much like we the fans do.
Paul Coro’s blog yesterday had quotes from Steve Nash, which sort of eluded to […]

Phoenix Suns take down the Denver Nuggets

Date October 26, 2007

Amare Stoudemire opened the game with a solid post move and then a jumper.
And man, his jump shot is beautiful now. He caught the ball in transition on the left side of the floor, about four feet inside the three-point line, and nailed a great, fluid shot.
Despite a sluggish start, the Phoenix Suns eventually beat […]

Boris Diaw back to the bench

Date October 25, 2007

Sad for Boris Diaw, but it’s good for the Phoenix Suns. It means Amare Stoudemire is back in the lineup.
He looked pretty fresh and hopping during their Open Practice on Tuesday, even throwing down some amazing dunks.
Paul Coro wrote that Diaw is headed back to the bench, but it’s nothing new to the guy. Even […]

Grant Hill leads Suns in defeat of Clippers

Date October 19, 2007

The Phoenix Suns blew out the L.A. Clippers 118-97 and Grant Hill scored 21 points on 8-9 shooting.
All in the first half.
He’s truly becoming the player I thought he could be for this team. He played 21 minutes and only left the game because, as Paul Coro writes, he got “hit in the butt” early […]

Phoenix Suns lose to the New Orleans Hornets

Date October 13, 2007

After the big start to the preseason with all the praises for Grant Hill, Shawn Marion, Shawn Marks and D.J. Strawberry, I was so pumped that I jumped at the chance to watch Saturday’s game live.
On a side note, the Official Phoenix Suns Ticket Exchange is a sweet place to find tickets to games. Not […]
