Phoenix Suns and SAS- The Man in the Mirror Uncategorized | (0)
The one thing that is known around Phoenix and that all sports betting aficionados will tell you is that once is random, twice is luck, and three times is a pattern. As we look back at the Suns success and failures there is one pattern that is worth not repeating further. A lot can be said about the inconsistency of the Suns roster during the Nash era. Over the past 6 years Phoenix has built and taken down many exciting teams, swapping piece by piece, in efforts to finally prevail over the San Antonio Spurs. Last year they were finally ...

by Sandy Dover / @SandmanSeven If it was good enough for 50 Cent and Nate Dogg, I’m pretty sure it’s exceptionally sufficient for SLAMonline. Regardless of music, 21 Questions with San Dova is taking the task of asking those nebulous questions that seem to revolve around the force of gravity we know to be the NBA. Check for the preguntas at the top of every month or so. 1) If Kobe Bryant wins a fifth NBA championship with the Los Angeles Lakers, will he finally be removed from the cast shadow of Michael Jordan? Will he instead ...

From GMAT: Re Suns Defense Uncategorized | (0)
I don't believe he's worth the max and he does not possess a high basketball IQ. Having said that, I found this good commentary about the Suns' defense in this latest series. It at least shows some instances where Amare was being Amare on defense. And the instances, where we should have given him some slack as the Suns' team as a whole is faulty on defense. http://www.brightsideofthesun.com/2010/5/20/1481361/phoenix-suns-zone-defense-fails#storyjump Thanks for posting the link, but I'd cite a few flaws in the commentary. The writer concludes that the Suns' coaches were more culpable for the poor defensive showing than the ...

Nash Drops 23 Points and 15 Dimes On Old School Blazers Amare Stoudemire, Featured, Jared Dudley, Leandro Barbosa, Phoenix Suns, Portland Blazers, Rip City, Steve Nash, Suns News, trailblazers, Uncategorized | (0)
In a game where the starters played substantial meaningful minutes, the Suns were able to defeat the Blazers 110-104. This was the first major litmus test for the Suns this pre-season. Steve Nash played 33 minutes and scored 23 points and dished out 15 assists. The Suns shot 50% from the field; including 52% from downtown. Additionally, the Suns were able to generate turnovers on defense. The Suns had 11 steals, led by Jared Dudley with 4 steals in 26 minutes. Dudley performed admirably in the absence of Grant Hill, who had a mildly sprained ankle. Along with 11 steals, ...

Suns Get “Thunder” Struck Amare Stoudemire, Earl Clark, Featured, Jared Dudley, NBA, Oklahoma City Thunder, Phoenix Suns, Pre-Season, Steve Nash, Suns News, Uncategorized | (0)
The Suns have now played in 3 full pre-season games, which I consider long enough at least to make some basic observations about this team. First and foremost, Amare Stoudemire seems to be healthy. Despite all the clamoring to trade him away last season, he remains the most important part of the current Suns roster. To put it simply enough, without Amare Stoudemire, the Suns would be a 30-35 win team this season. To that particular point, Amare simply has to be the superstar he claims that he is. Last night against the Thunder Amare was able to amass 20 ...

Don’t Sleep On This Year’s Suns Alvin Gentry, Amare Stoudemire, Featured, Phoenix Suns, Steve Nash, Suns News, Uncategorized, Western Conference | (0)
Over the next couple of weeks with the beginning of pre-season NBA basketball looming, numerous publications will release their season predictions. From all indications, most people are sellers of the Suns this season ranging from 6th in the Western Conference to not making the playoffs at all. I am however taking a contrarian view of this year’s Suns. Last year many considered the Suns a complete failure; I however saw last season’s failures as the easiest way to jettison the Suns biggest flaw: Shaquille O’Neal. The Suns went from the #1 team in the Western Conference upon Shaq’s arrival to ...
