The big man in charge asked the group of bloggers in the Fan Sided network to post what their idea of a dream doubleheader would be. A very interesting subject. Being a fan of several teams, this really could have gone in many different directions. Being a native of Phoenix, I grew up a Phoenix Suns fan. Then the Cardinals came [...]

Loading ...This year’s NBA Draft could be very important in shaping the future of the Phoenix Suns. Let’s just hope the ownership and the new coaching staff are willing to grab something other than cash. The Suns will indeed pick 15th and hopefully, since they’ll make the Playoffs in the next couple of years this could be the best chance [...]

(Lisa Blumenfeld/Getty Images) With the Playoffs beginning on Saturday in Texas I believe the Suns-Spurs Series will come down to four key factors 1. Stay focused. Never lose sight of the situation. Never try to win the game with one single player. Never give up on defense. Never stop running. Never. It's got to be 100 [...]

(AP Photo/Matt York) The Suns beat the Blazers last night in Phoenix 100-91 to end the regular season at 55-27 and will now face the San Antonio Spurs in the first round of the Playoffs. The game was over before halftime, not because of what was happening on the court, but because [...]

(2 votes, avg: 5 out of 5) Loading ...The Suns got the win last night despite rolling over and playing dead in the 3rd quarter. It's a good thing Baron Davis had too much cake and ice cream last night, otherwise our squad could have been in serious trouble.Before turning the game on last night, I told myself I wouldn't get upset or too [...]

Are you liking the Shaq trade now?The Suns have strung together five straight wins and are showing the versatility we were hoping the trade would bring. Things started to turn in the loss to Utah. That loss really was the last straw because the bad defense hit bottom giving up 41 in the fourth [...]

So the Suns have sputtered a bit since the trade. They've had a few tough losses and a couple blowouts as they played without Marion and now with Shaquille O'Neal. A subject that's been coming up a lot is the playoffs. After what we saw with Dallas last year (and even Cleveland when you think about it), matchups are everything. [...]

Brent,I understand this must be a tough time for you. The San Antonio Spurs traded you to Seattle to retool in their quest for a repeat and fifth NBA title. It's gotta hurt. Not only did they feel they could get there without you, now they are dangling money to come back as if [...]

Detroit is the best team in the league. Their continuity and versatility is impressive and they put on a clinic Sunday afternoon.

This is the type of game that the Suns got Shaquille O'Neal for. The grinders. How would the Suns respond when someone tried to muck it up and push them around with Shaq in the lineup? We got a decent idea Friday night. The Suns broke out early and matched the Celtics intensity throughout in a 85-77 victory.[...]

"When we do get used to each other, we'll be the most dangerous team ever created." Shaquille O'Neal The doubters, naysayers and Lakers fans will start chirping right away but the first game of the NASH/SHAQ campaign was intriguing. I had to watch this game Frankenstein style. I rocked a little ESPN360 until it died. I followed the [...]

(Rate this post) Loading ...Ok, we've had a few days to take this all in. Let's look at the trade for Shaquille O'Neal.1. We actually have a center now. Think about that for a second. The Suns are now a power team. All of Shaq's title teams have feasted on points in the paint and behind the line because defenses double and [...]

(Rate this post) Loading ...So I've finally gotten out of bed and have begun to cope with my beloved Patriots losing Superbowl 42. For me it's on par with the 1997 Rose Bowl, Game 6 of the 2002 World Series and Game 5 against the Sp*rs last year. When our teams lose it sucks, especially with a title on the line. Sports is the [...]

So the buzz word about Suns fans is we're whiners. We're obsessed with almosts. It's been 40 years with tons of talent and no title. A fan who can stay committed even through a fraction of that time (Danny Manning's knee, Mario Elie's corner 3, McDyess goes back to Denver, Kidd for Marbury, Joe Johnson's face, Raja's calf, Robert Horry) [...]

(AP Photo/Mark J. Terrill) If you can't defend the painted area, attack it ! That was the game plan last night in the Suns 108-88 easy victory against the Clippers. The Suns went to Stoudemire for the first four possesions of the game and established the inside game early on. [...]

The Suns have faced several good teams lately and the tougher competition has given fans and NBA heads a better idea of how good this team actually is. Uneven efforts are going to be there early in the season and teams lose some games they shouldn't lose- that's acceptable. What becoming clearer, the more I listen to Jeff Van Gundy [...]

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving.So if you read NBA previews, a lot of people picked the Suns to nab the number one seed in the West and picked the Spurs to repeat. A lot of people knocked the Suns for letting Kurt Thomas go and poo-pooed the Grant Hill signing. A lot of [...]

(Photo: Rocky Widner/NBAE Photos) The Suns were leading by as much as 19 points with 2:20 left in the 3rd quarter, as everything seemed rolling towards an easy win, when the Kings came back and with 3:07 left in the fourth tied the game at 94 on Ron Artest’s [...]

Sorry for the lack of updates Suns fans. I've been a little busy and some games I'm catching on radio (free NBA Audio League Pass FTW) or other means. This past week brought some dysfunctional Eastern conference teams to PHX.The Knicks came to town with Stephon Marbury. Apparently Isiah Thomas told him he was [...]
