Looking back at last night

Usually when the Suns hold their opponent under 100 points, they are going to win that game, but that wasn’t the case last night.  Behind 36 points from LeBron James, the Miami Heat beat the Suns 95-83 last night. Even with Dwyane Wade out, the game was never really in doubt.  Miami’s suffocating defense allowed [...]

Game Preview: Heat at Suns

With Christmas just two days away, Suns fans will get an early present of seeing the Miami Heat in action here in Phoenix tonight.  Unfortunately, the game will feature a little less fire power.

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 [...]

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 [...]

Lopez could return on Wednesday

Good news appears to be coming for the Suns lack of defense and rebounding.  Robin Lopez practiced fully on Sunday and he could start on Wednesday night against Minnesota.  Lopez hasn’t played since Nov. 14 when he tore ligaments in his left knee when Jared Dudley fell into him.  He has also battled right leg [...]

Phoenix [...]

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 [...]

Poor first quarter too much for Suns to overcome in Denver

Despite being down 16 going into the fourth quarter, the Suns made a game of it late, but ran out of time in their 138-133 loss to the Nuggets on Sunday night.  Denver was without their superstar forward Carmelo Anthony for nearly the entire game due to flu-like symptoms, but they had a few guys [...]
