Suns Lose Channing Frye “Indefinitely”
Posted on 20 Sep 2012 by Thomas Mitchell.
The Phoenix Suns announced today on their website that power forward Channing Frye has an enlarged heart and would not be re-evaluated until December, causing him to miss most of the regular season and possibly all of it. Frye's condition was discovered during a routine physical by Phoenix's cardiologist and he will be monitored closely by specialists to ensure a healthy recovery. Frye's a loca...

Suns Slowly Flaming Out
Posted on 26 Aug 2012 by Thomas Mitchell.
Hello fellow Suns fans. What a hot and miserable summer it has been, in so many senses. Not only did we lose the best Canadian athlete since Wayne Gretzky, we lost him to those entitled chumps in Los Angeles. What's even more disappointing is that any rational fan couldn't blame Nash for leaving, he was getting diminishing returns from the team every year despite his stellar play. He voiced his...

Mavs Handle Suns Thanks To Marion
Posted on 24 Jan 2012 by Max Barton.
The Dallas Mavericks hosted the Phoenix Suns Monday night without Finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki and Vince Carter, who are both nursing injuries. One would think scoring would be hard to come by for the 22nd ranked offense, but the Mavs proved that wasn’t the case at all. Marion stepped up big and had a fantastic night scoring from all over the floor. Marion was 11 of 21 from the floor and 4 of 6 f...

Is Curry the next Nash?
Posted on 19 Mar 2011 by Brad Botkin.
It's always fun to compare players whose games are so strikingly similar. Like Kobe and Jordan. You can eat up an entire weekend with your buddies asking things like, Who's the better shooter? The better penetrator? The better athlete? Who would you rather have taking the last shot? And of course, flat out, who's the better player? Most people, including myself, still believe it's Jordan, if on...

Empty Seats Abound
Posted on 14 Mar 2011 by Brad Botkin.
So I'm watching the Suns play on Sunday against the Magic, a nationally televised game on a huge afternoon of sports, and I'm looking in the stands. And what do I see? A whole mess of empty seats. And I immediately think about the glory days, back when the Suns were by far and away the most exciting team in the league. When the motto was to get up a shot in 7 seconds or less. When Nash to Stou...

Vince Carter? Slam Dunker, or Slam-Dunk Hall of Famer?
Posted on 11 Mar 2011 by Brad Botkin.
The other day I was reading an article about the “freakish” talent of one Tracy McGrady, and how, in the opinion of some, it actually worked to the detriment of his career. The argument was simple: The game simply came too easy to T-Mac. His crazy leaps and bird-like wingspan, and – as McGrady's former coach Jeff Van Gundy stated – his terrifically high basketball IQ, ma...

Reason for Hope?
Posted on 4 Mar 2011 by Brad Botkin.
Dating back to an impressive, if unexpected victory over the Celtics on January 28, the Suns have quietly won 11 of their last 15 games, including four of their last five. Ironically, the Celtics bookended that run as well, knocking Phoenix off on Wednesday by a score of 115-103. Phoenix made a late run with a barrage of triples, going on an 18-0 run to close the first half and start the second...

Frye hits another game-winner
Posted on 1 Mar 2011 by Brad Botkin.
On Sunday, Channing Frye propelled the Suns over the Indiana Pacers with a toe-on-the-line, contested jumper as time expired. On Monday, he did it again. This time it came with 6.6 seconds left in overtime to give Phoenix a 104-103 win against the New Jersey Nets. It was the Suns' fourth consecutive win to start the second half, and considering the log jam at the bottom of the Western Conferenc...

So Far, So Good
Posted on 26 Feb 2011 by Brad Botkin.
I said yesterday that I feel the Suns need to win between 18 and 20 games in the second half to have a shot at the playoffs. So far, they're 2-0 after the all-star break. The win against the Hawks at home was impressive, and even though I can't exactly say the same for their win against the forgotten Raptors, it was still a road win. And road wins, regardless of the opponent, are not to be scof...

Suns Land Brooks
Posted on 24 Feb 2011 by Brad Botkin.
The way I figure it, the Suns need to win somewhere between 18 and 20 of their final 28 games to have a realistic shot at making the playoffs. It's a tough assignment, but in the suddenly depleted Western Conference, it's at least feasible. In my opinion, even more so after the trade the Suns pulled off on Thursday. In exchange for backup point guard Goran Dragic, who is stable but nothing spec...

Blazers snap Suns 3 game win streak
Posted on 8 Dec 2010 by Manny Nunez.
Trying to avenge a season opening loss to Portland, the Suns traveled back to the Rose Garden to face the Blazers. Owning a 9 point lead in the fourth quarter, the Blazers overcame that deficit with Nicolas Batum leading the team to a 106-99 victory. The loss for the Suns snapped a 3 game winning streak. The Suns trailed by as many as 12 points, but a second half surge sparked by Steve Na...
