Re: Game Day: Thunder (55-20) @ Suns (45-31) , Sun 4/6/14

The overall perception of the Suns on Spurstalk is mostly positive. They tend to root for us against any other Western Conference playoff team, probably because they don't see us as a major threat yet. Once the Suns start winning playoff games, they'll change their tune and start hating us like they...

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH

There is no part of me that wants a higher draft pick. Zero desire to miss out on the playoffs.

I'm all in on winning, and have been since we beat the Blazers on Oct 30th.

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH

The Warriors are still within reach, but their schedule is light from here on out. Barring a number of freak injuries, I don't see them falling out of the 6-spot. Portland has righted the ship just enough to hold on to their 5-spot, as well. It's all about the Suns, Mavs, and Grizz from here on out.

Re: Game Day: Thunder (55-20) @ Suns (45-31) , Sun 4/6/14

I loved PJ Tucker before this game, but he just skyrocketed up my list of all-time favorite Suns players. That "steal-back" from Fisher that all but sealed the game was fantastic, but talking shit to the Thunder bench was even better. And taunting Westbrook with his signature "holster...

Re: Was there a plan to grow their beards during playoff pus

I don't recall if PJ still had his beard in last night's game, but that dude looks so much fiercer with facial hair. We need any extra edge we can get, and if a beard adds a little bit of an intimidation factor, Tucker needs to put down the razor until the offseason begins. :lol:

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH

Some things of note about the upcoming schedule: 1. Memphis is on a back-to-back going into the game against us (here in Phoenix). GOOD 2. The Suns are on a back-to-back going into the game against Dallas (in Dallas). BAD 3. The Spurs are on a back-to-back going into the game against us (in San Anto...

Possibly the biggest win of our season. We now have a slight advantage over Memphis, which means we have have have have have to beat them next week.

It's games like these that make me reconsider wanting to pay Bledsoe big money.

I don't really know if he's a big-game, big-moment player.

Bledsoe's stoic non-celebration when he hits a dagger 3 might be my favorite thing about this Suns team. Just that expression he gives when he turns to walk to the other side of the court.

I heard that Bledsoe might return tonight against the Clippers, but that it's up to Bledsoe and the training staff to make the call. Hornacek is ready for him to return whenever.

Re: Suns News: Week of 3/10-3/16

If the Suns are serious about making the playoffs, the Cleveland and Boston games should be blowouts. Clips are obviously a challenge, and the Raptors are one of the better teams in the east. Can't take them lightly, especially at home.

Re: Game Day: Suns (36-26) @ Clippers (44-20) , Mon 3/10/14

I think this is the first game of the season that qualifies as a "Must Win." No excuses from here on out. Memphis and Dallas are going to continue to win. The Suns are probably going to need to go 15-5 for the rest of the season to qualify for the playoffs, and with the April schedule look...

Re: Game Day: Thunder (46-15) @ Suns (35-25) , Thurs 3/6/14

I picked this game up early in the 4th quarter, and I'm kicking myself for not getting it on sooner. I wasn't excited about this game because I had it pegged for a loss, so I decided to get some work done instead while the game was going on. I should have known, never put real life responsibilities ...

Suns are doing a great job of making life difficult for CP3 and Blake. Seems like they throw a new defender at Blake every time down the court. :lol:

Dragic made two or three of the sickest passes I've seen from him this season.

Re: Steve Albert...

The only problem I have with Steve Albert is that his jokes land flat every time. Every time he pops a clever quip, you can hear the audible facepalm on the other side of EJ's mic. I might be in the minority, but I was fond of certain Leanderisms. Whenever Amare slammed it home, I enjoyed hearing ab...

Re: Steve Nash - The Finish Line

---- Oh yeah, this topic is about Steve Nash. There are times throughout the videos where I genuinely feel for the guy.
