I don't know what to think now, [if the Suns win this game] they've beaten a lot of good teams this season and have choked away a lot of games (they could possibly have the best record in the NBA). Do we blow it up? Or do we add a piece and go for it!

If we hold on, its a good win. But keep in mind this is without Carmelo. This really isnt a litmus test although it is a necessary win

lawson, again, scores on nash. too easy.

 

[Bufalay]

Channing always looks so nervous.

Why do they have to get the starters back with 5 min left and 19 pts lead? Nash and Amare one TO each, we are only 14 pts ahead with 4:30 some left.

 

[95pro]

for the 3rd time, lawson easily getting to the layup line on nash.

Denver is still a good team. And in Denver, they're even better. They've only lost 3 times at home. And they're 4-1 without Carmelo.

frye, muscle up man and grab the ball with two hands...

 

[TJ]

Channing always looks so nervous.

If he holds on to the ball for more than .5 seconds, he shrivels up. He seems to only be comfortable in catch and shoot opportunities

 

[jagu]

Okay I think the time is on our side, we can't blow it now...



Or can we????

 

[95pro]

can we take the starters out yet?

 

[jagu]

I'll take it

 

[Chaplin]

Solid, solid win. Probably the best win since the Laker win around Xmas.

 

[95pro]

final, 109-97.

dumb last shot attempt by the nugz.

good game for us.

 

[TJ]

Stat of the game:

Nash with 2 blocks!!

 

[Griffin]

Great win. Finally we manage to hold onto a lead. The 12-point win was as close as the Nuggets had been in the 4th.

 

[Proteus]

Yay!! Suns win 109-97. Good game from the Suns.

 

[95pro]

still in the 6th spot.

hopefully denver falls with that tough schedule of theirs coming up.
and spurs havent played as many games as us, up to this point.

On an Amare pass from the top!

Progress

I am really impressed at Stoudemire's aggressiveness on the boards lately.

The dude looks more active and involved than he has maybe ever.

Maybe the trade talk and 4th quarter benching lit a fire under his backside.

He needs to play every night like he is auditioning for that max contract, because he is.

Every night period, not just he wants a new contract.

If he played like that consistently, there would be no question and we'd be aheah of the Lakers, mtl.

In the years before they got Gasol as a gift and Odom found his niche, we put the Lakers in their plac, regularly.

Now it's turned around. Stoudamire playing like he did last night and harkened of old somewhat needs to bring that intensity consistently!

I'd say keep him unless someone knocks your socks off. 1st rounder needs to be part of any package.

Amare and Big Bird seem to have developed a nice chemistry.

Did I hear the ESPN announcers praise the Sun's defense??

You can only defend as well as you weakest defender does. And that weakest link on our team Nash has had energy saved for harassing his man, from not dribble-driving too much in the last 3-4 games.

How is it that the Suns trounce the Nuggets IN Denver and 2 nights later the Nuggets easily beat the Fakers in LA?
