The victory was the fourth in five games for the Suns, who have won their last three on the road. Phoenix took a double-digit lead in the second quarter and maintained a comfortable margin for the remainder of the...

POTD 2/9/12: Channing Frye…Wait…What?

Well here’s something you don’t see every day: Channing Frye driving to the rack and dunking on a dude.  The dude happened to be Samuel Dalembert, who didn’t respect authority… the authority of Channing Frye’s seldom-seen but ever-destructive right-handed sledgehammer, that is. Frye is one of those guys that if you type his name into Youtube along...

Inconsistency plagues struggling Suns

PHOENIX -- After feeling as frustrated and statistically doomed as a search party on the prowl for Bigfoot, we've finally located some consistency in the Phoenix Suns. We simply were looking in the wrong places until now. For the record, the consistency just referenced has nothing to do with their one-game losing streak. That number was established with Thursday night's...

Channing Frye's hot streak continues with 21 points, 10 rebounds and four threes

Channing Frye is in the midst of a three-game hot streak. In Phoenix's 96-89 loss to the Houston Rockets, Frye hit 8-of-17 shots on the way to 21 points, 10 rebounds, four three-pointers, an assist, two steals and two blocks. It's a reward to his oh-so-patient owners who held on through his slump. Frye came into tonight after two solid games (19 points and nine rebounds...

Nash named to All-Star team as reserve

Suns guard Steve Nash was named a reserve on the Western Conference All-Star team Thursday. Nash will be making his eighth career All-Star appearance (2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010), his sixth as a reserve and his franchise-record-tying sixth as a member of the Suns.

“Steve Nash is getting old” is getting old

  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...

POTD 2/6/12: Ivan Johnson On Channing Frye

I find Ivan Johnson to be the NBA’s most frightening player.  At 6’8 230 pounds, he plays the game like something of a human wrecking ball.  He also looks like he wants to kill you… all the time.  Surprisingly, Channing Frye (of all people) had the stones to contest one of Johnson’s takes to the rack.  I believe he was actually fortunate to have been dunked...

Video: Pink gorilla's B-Day song for Steve Nash

Phoenix Suns point guard Steve Nash celebrated his 38th birthday at the Sun’s team breakfast this morning with a song. A man in a pink gorilla suit strummed an accoustic guitar and sang an alternate, more-rocking birthday song as the team clapped along. Recorded on video by social media star and Suns forward, Jared Dudley...Read the Rest...

Suns' Redd returns to Milwaukee for first time

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...

Phoenix Suns’ record won’t allow multiple All-Stars, so who’s in?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMm5ZoZFu14 The fact that Phoenix is winning less than Utah, Cleveland and Minnesota isn’t Steve Nash’s fault. Or Marcin Gortat’s for that matter. Fact is, the Suns’ pick-and-roll partners are both playing well enough to merit All-Star consideration, but aren’t necessarily locks for Orlando. Nash made the cut on ESPN.com...

Suns step up to beat struggling Bobcats

PHOENIX -- The locker room strategy board offered at least one crucial, pre-game recommendation: "Focus (Can't Under-estimate Anybody in the NBA)." This powerful suggestion was supplied by the coaching staff of the Phoenix Suns, a team that -- based on the evidence -- never should be overestimated. Yes, unfortunately, expecting a lot from this season's Suns is...
