After all, with his stats slipping slightly last year, wasn’t he about to enter the downside of his career at age 35? The Suns were also poised to have a down year after [...] Wed, 25 Nov 2009 17:44:25 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/nba/article_external/Steve_Nash_and_the_Suns_are_Back/1632616 http://www.yardbarker.com/nba/article_external/Steve_Nash_and_the_Suns_are_Back/1632616 http://www.yardbarker.com/nba/article_external/Steve_Nash_and_the_Suns_are_Back/1632616 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/5/4/547bd5657fe218cbee7bbb8312f563270996a091/small/75.jpg WHY YOU NEED IT: We like to think that the shirt is purely metaphorically and "guns" refers to the Suns' style of play. The "Run n' Gun" slogan on the back seems to back that up. My only complaint with the shirt is that the gun is flying through the air. Now, how on earth throwing a gun at someone is going to help any situation, I do not know. Seems it would be more useful to fire it. Maybe they should have depicted a gun shooting out a miniature Steve Nash. That...

Mike D'Antoni has always been a believer of the short rotation, something he's been criticized for (and probably rightly so) over the years. His Phoenix Suns never had more than an eight man rotation by design, not because of the actual quality of the roster. D'Antoni just didn&#3...

If you look at this team (now) and go back to when they had the best record in the West (Conference) when Mike D’Antoni was there, the only constant has been Steve Nash. This is the perfect situation for him. It’s an honor and pleasure for me, living in Phoenix, to watch this team every team. This guy has the heart of a lion, he is unbelievable.

Well, at least it's not purple and gold. That much I'm sure about), my first really vivid memory of the Suns is a highlight reel of a Phoenix-Memphis game of the 2005 NBA playoffs.
