Nash's late layup on birthday lifts Suns (AP)

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYzJXL_UBqM   It’s become a ritual. A certainty. A phrase no play-by-play or color commentator can pass up. “Steve Nash, at [however many] years old…” It’s a back-handed compliment that doubles as a built-in excuse for when Nash’s play, someday, finally does drop off. Until that happens, his age will be flaunted...

Michael Redd broke the 40-point barrier 11 times during his time with the Milwaukee Bucks, but a 17-point performance for the Phoenix Suns on Saturday could have been one of the best moments of his career. Redd is likely in for another memorable game Tuesday, regardless of how many points he scores. Returning to Milwaukee for the first time since spending his first 11 seasons there...

I find it pretty funny that the Suns and Knicks have similar records this year.   And it’s evident that the Knicks are the highly superior team in terms of personnel.   Yet another sure sign that Mike D’Antoni completely sucks and all credit should be given to Steve Nash.   Does anyone even think about the fact that Nash is 38 years old?  Yes, 38. Anyway, I’...

The Phoenix Suns came out flat during a loss to the Houston Rockets last week. They haven't suffered another defeat since then. The Suns will try to add to their longest win streak of the season in Thursday night's rematch with the Rockets at the U.S. Airways Center. Phoenix (11-14) trailed by 20 points at halftime Friday in Houston en route to a 99-81 defeat but has bounced...

Channing Frye, playing the entire second half, scored a season...

MILWAUKEE For 11 seasons, Michael Redd representeda lot of things to Milwaukee Bucks fans. He was a poster boy for hard work, going from an unheralded second-round pickto a franchise cornerstone and an All-Star. He was a fan favorite, capable ofputting 20 points on the board on any given night, with a sweet shot that wasthe envy of many. Down the stretch though, whether warranted...

Steve Nash scored 24 points and the Phoenix Suns broke open a close game with a 24-6 run to close the third quarter and beat the Atlanta Hawks 99-90 on Monday night.

MILWAUKEE (AP) What a way for Steve Nash to celebrate his 38th birthday. It wasn't a bad homecoming for Michael Redd, either.

Steve Nash hit a driving layup with 5 seconds left, giving the Phoenix Suns a 107-105 victory over Milwaukee Bucks 107-105 on Tuesday night.

Notes: If there was anyone Suns guard Steve Nash could look at as the model for what he could do as a 38-year-old NBA point guard, it would be Utah legend John Stockton.

From Show Time to Shaq and Kobe, who would have thought the Los Angeles Lakers would ever play second fiddle in the city that they call home?  The Los Angeles Clippers are not only the best team in the NBA’s Pacific division, they are also the hottest ticket in L.A. these days.  With a star-studded roster, the Clippers have surpassed the Lakers when it comes to entertainment...

WASHINGTON — Jeremy Lin continued rising into a national phenomenon in the nation’s capital last night, with a soaring dunk that put the exclamation mark on another surreal evening. This is “Linsane!” And if this keeps up, point guard Steve Nash soon will be referred to as the Canadian Jeremy...

Michael Redd said he took a wrong turn on his way to the visitors' locker room at the Bradley Center. Who could blame No. 22? He spent 11 years with the Bucks, but on this night he had a purple Suns jersey hanging in the visitors' locker room under his nametag.
