The Suns are beating teams traditionally: with a good mix of offense and defense. Can't remember the last time I saw this on a consistent basis. I only got to watch part of the game and thought it was the 3rd quarter when I saw they only had 80 points.

Crappy schedule for the Suns on Thursday. The Jazz gets two days rest after losing to Clippers tonight while the Suns will be playing on a back-to-back, and on TNT!

The 2nd unit played unbelievable. It was something like a 25 point turnaround. Dragic has some much confidence now. Every shot he puts up, i think its going to fall.

This was a good win because the Thuggets have the kind of length and athleticism that causes matchup problems for the Suns. They did a decent job trapping Nash last night but the ball was still finding a way to the open man. Their bench had no answer for the Suns'.

Frye had a good game compliments of their double teaming Nash. When Frye shoots well he really helps the Suns. I understand this is why Lopez did not play more.

It's amazing to me that Frye becomes a much better defender in the zone than he is at man-to-man. He seems to get the zone positions down, but yet in man-to-man he's as soft as butter.

Awsome win for the suns loved it when the bench came in and Dragic and the bench took over just so sweet :). Also those two dunks by dragic were great the one where he fell on his stomach was pretty funny though lol but man he has hops!!! Great win suns also another solid game by Amare. Starting to play more like we were at the start of the year now love it.

Another good Suns win.

Nuggets with an 11 point quarter? THAT'S defense!

I pretty much hate all Nuggets players. I used to like Billups though. Apparently the dirty play culture of Denver has seeped into him. When he elbowed Dragic in the face, I renounced any respect I had for him. He can join the rest of those fools on my sh*t list: Carmelo the Crybaby, Nene the Flopper, Martin the Thug...

The teamwork and camaraderie is very heartening. Stoudemire up and cheering from the bench (as usual), players smothering Dragic at the half...

Good stuff.

I'll be at the Clip Joint tomorrow night.

The way he shoved that elbow is suspect, it looks more like a deliberate "dont you get too close to me or you get hurt" move than an accident like the announcers were trying to make it look like.
He must have been pretty pissed Dragic was able to shut him down in the 2nd qtr.
