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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

In honor of Thanksgiving, I’ve tried to devote this week to things that should cheer up the Indians’ depressed fanbase. I’ve honored an underappreciated pitcher, given Tribe fans a list of things to be thankful for, and handed out end-of-season awards to Cleveland’s best players. But when dealing with the Tribe, it’s hard to maintain [...]
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 [...]

There was scoring, scoring and more scoring on Monday night in Houston and the Suns were able to hold off a battered and bruised Rockets team in the final seconds in a 123-116 victory.

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 [...]

Filed under MLB
It appears that the groin injury to Steve Nash appears to be a bit more serious than first indicated. The Suns point guard will miss tonight’s game in Charlotte and Monday’s game in Houston due the groin strain that has been bothering him over the past week or so. If this was a game in [...]
