Suns' playoff hopes depend on win over Jazz
The Phoenix Suns now find themselves in a must-not-lose-to-the-Utah-Jazz situation.
Referring to the Tuesday night showdown in Salt Lake City as a must-win event would be preferable, and a more efficient use of vocabulary, but we're adopting the lead of Suns coach Alvin Gentry.
OK, so even though Gentry finally can admit that "must-win" fits the description of Game...

Despite win, Suns preparing for rough road trip
PHOENIX -- This time, Phoenix Suns coach Alvin Gentry was working on his best deadpan, post-game face.
His post-game faces have been fairly pleasant lately. A coach really can dig deep into the repertoire of positive emotion when his team is rolling. But Sunday night's choice was accompanied by counterfeit, one-word sarcasm.

Suns find offense, get much-needed victory
PHOENIX -- Alvin Gentry assumed the responsibility of carrying 1-year-old Matteo into the Phoenix Suns' locker room on Monday afternoon.
The Suns' head coach seemed happy to do it. Well, he sort of owed the kid's dad a favor.

Suns can't score, Gentry not ready to panick
PHOENIX -- The beauty of this edition of the Phoenix Suns' offense is its capacity to transform almost anyone on the roster into an emergency go-to-guy for one night.
But in the eye of even the most optimistic beholder, running sets to create pristine looks for Hakim Warrick and Ronnie Price suggests the potential for cosmic concerns on Planet Orange.
