Suns mistakes cost them game & season

In last night's 92-87 loss to the Spurs which eliminates the Suns from the playoffs, Phoenix showed they're still not ready to compete at a championship level. There's plenty of blame to go around: Costly turnovers with the game on the line - The Suns...

Suns Breakdown Late, Fail to Close (Twice) in 2OT Loss

VS. Game 1: Suns 115, Spurs 117 (2OT) The Suns made some huge mental mistakes down the stretch in both regulation and OT, including a 24-second violation and a charging call (both while leading). They failed to seal the win and as a result, head back...

Suns Preparing for Battle w/ Spurs in Round 1

Admit it... you would probably prefer that the Suns played another team in the 1st round and saved the Spurs for later in the playoffs. Unfortunately, the basketball gods have chosen to give us the most intriguing matchup of the playoffs - right off the...

Suns Lose to Spurs (at Home)... Time for a Change?

Last night's Suns/Spurs game was pretty enjoyable for about 3 1/2 quarters of play. Phoenix played well enough to lead almost the entire game, but their weaknesses were highlighted in the last few minutes by a less than perfect San Antonio team. Missing...

Suns Battle Western Powers

The Suns got a bit of revenge Monday night against the San Antonio Spurs , their first meeting since last year's infamous suspension incident during the playoffs. The Spurs were without their point guard, Tony Parker , so they were not quite full strength...

Odds on Favorite from the Beginning, Spurs Sweep Cavs in NBA Finals

VS NBA fans and oddsmakers alike picked the Spurs to win their 4th NBA Championship once their matchup w/ the Cleveland Cavaliers was set. While they weren't picked to win in 4 games by sportsbooks and online wagering sites, there was probably no money...

Suns Lose, Spurs Advance to WCF

While you do have to give credit to the Spurs for their dominance in Game 6, its EXTREMELY HARD not to think of how the series would've been if Amare & Diaw played in a home, Game 5. As it was, the Suns only lost by 3 points. If those two players...

Suns Lose to Spurs in Game 5, 88-85

There's really not a lot to say about Game 5, other than the Suns put together an extremely valiant effort to win without Diaw and Stoudemire. San Antonio's starting 5 was just too tough down the stretch and Phoenix couldn't hit a shot. Leandro Barbosa...

Bruce Bowen Cheap Player... NBA Should Suspend Immediately

Amare Stoudemire made an accusation today that the San Antonio Spurs' Bruce Bowen is a dirty player . There was an easy dunk attempt the other night where Amare barely made it up to the rim and almost looked injured as he turned and ran back down the...

Suns' Defense (Yes, Defense) Leads to Game 2 Victory

It's not that often that the Phoenix Suns can attribute a victory to the defense they played on the opposition, but Tuesday night's Game 2 win over the San Antonio Spurs definitely goes to the defense. Not only did the Suns put a stop to the red-hot Tony...

Spurs take Game 1 from Suns... Leave Nash bruised & bloodied

Not a bad start to what looks to be a great series - Suns vs Spurs - round 1 goes to San Antonio 111-106, but just barely. Had Steve Nash not been removed from the game because of the excess blood, the Suns would've stood a much higher chance of winning...

2004-2005 NBA Finals - San Antonio Wins 3rd Championship since 1999

This year's NBA Finals came down to which team played better defense down the stretch and who actually wanted the championship more. In this case, San Antonio escaped Game 7 with the victory and the trophy. Detroit did a great job taking the series to...

San Antonio / Detroit NBA Finals, Game 2 recap

Wow, San Antonio almost scored 100 points in a game against Detroit ... wouldn't this have been great if Detroit had actually reached 90 themselves? I've written about this horrible NBA Playoff series in a prior article (read more). I'm not the only one...
