A Tense Renegotiation
Posted by Adam Beechen on May 29, 2007 4:12 AM
Enough head-hanging at the season gone by, Suns fans. The NBA draft is a month away, and soon after, it'll be time for free agent signings, then the Vegas summer league, and then, before you know it, it's training camp time for the 2007-08 season. Read more
Top 10 Reasons To Be a Suns Fan
Posted by Adam Green on May 23, 2007 2:19 PM
Suns fans, things don't seem to be going our way lately. In the last week many of us have been convinced that either the NBA hates the Suns, the franchise is cursed, or that the Arizona Cardinals will win a title before our beloved Suns do. Read more

2006-07 Season In Review
Posted by Brad G. Faye on May 22, 2007 9:07 AM
You'll excuse me if this blog isn't up to regulation standards, I wasn't quite expecting to do a 2006-07 recap of the 2006-07 season until later in June. Read more
Soft No More
Posted by Adam Beechen on May 17, 2007 12:03 PM
Two years ago in the playoffs, the Suns' Joe Johnson got his face broken in a game against Dallas. He coolly got up and shot free throws. The Suns responded in the next game with a gutty comeback. Still, they were called "soft." Read more
Suns Still in Seven!
Posted by Joe Gilmartin on May 17, 2007 1:11 AM
They said it couldn't be done, and in the end the Suns couldn't do it. But if they gave medals for trying this would be the most decorated team in the entire sports pantheon today. Read more
Pop, Do The Right Thing!
Posted by Tom Leander on May 15, 2007 7:49 PM
Okay, fans, let it out. And let it out Loud! The venting over the recently handed-out suspensions has begun. Fans not only in Phoenix but across the NBA nation are screaming about the ludicrous "letter of the law" interpretation which will severely hinder the Suns chances in Game 5 on Friday. Read more
The Letter of the Law
Posted by Adam Beechen on May 15, 2007 6:19 PM
A few years ago, Temple University basketball Coach John Chaney sent one of his deepest bench players into a game for the sole purpose of incapacitating an opponent's best player. Read more
Nash a Living Legend
Posted by Jeramie McPeek on May 15, 2007 1:19 PM
Traveling with the Suns, I see a lot of funny things and overhear a lot of interesting conversations that die-hard Phoenix fans would love to read about. Usually, I don't feel it's appropriate for me to share those anecdotes, but I feel compelled to relay this particular one. Read more
Game 4: Blogging from San Antonio
Posted by Jeramie McPeek on May 14, 2007 6:09 PM
It's 4:25 am Phoenix time (6:25 am back in San Antonio) and I'm back home, about ready to crash. Special thanks to all of you who read my in-game blog last night. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. For those of you just now reading it, forgive my over exuberance. I couldn't help myself! Read more
The Biggest Game of the Year
Posted by Jeramie McPeek on May 13, 2007 10:39 PM
Walking back to our hotel after the annual playoff media dinner this evening, I was saying how I wished that Suns broadcasters Tom Leander or Gary Bender were along for the trip so they could file a blog for Suns.com. Read more
Superfan, Superstitious
Posted by Adam Beechen on May 11, 2007 8:07 AM
The world of sports is rife with superstitions. The most famous ones are found in baseball: Don’t talk to a pitcher in the midst of throwing a no-hitter, don’t step on the chalked baselines when running onto the field. But in all sports, one superstition holds true: Don’t Mess With A Winning Streak. Read more

KT and LB, the Smiling Hustlers
Posted by Jeramie McPeek on May 9, 2007 2:18 AM
Kurt Thomas was all smiles in the Suns' locker room on Tuesday night, and I couldn't help but smile for him myself.
Marion Deserves Game Ball
Posted by Joe Gilmartin on May 9, 2007 12:31 AM
No matter what Shawn Marion does he frequently gets overshadowed and underpraised in Suns' wins, and more often than not is charged with contributory underachievement in Suns losses. And that's not just my opinion. It's his too. Read more
Suns: Lovable. Spurs: Not so much.
Posted by Adam Beechen on May 8, 2007 7:42 PM
Once upon a time, I am ashamed to admit, I thought the Spurs were kind of cool. I was a kid, mind you, and I didn't think the Spurs were cooler than the Suns, of course, but there were some things about them that I liked.
Oh, Nellie...He Nose Sports Medicine!
Posted by Tom Leander on May 7, 2007 10:51 PM
Talk Radio. It can be informative and it can be ruthless. I sometimes kick myself for listening to some of the local shows because of all the senseless and ignorant vile that can be spewed by listeners, guests and even the hosts! Read more
Suns vs. Spurs an Epic Battle
Posted by Brad G. Faye on May 7, 2007 4:21 PM
I don't know about you, but I slept pretty good last night. In fact, I even had to stop my viewing of "Seven Samurai" prematurely because I was so ready to hit the hay. Read more

Posted by Joe Gilmartin on May 6, 2007 7:47 PM
Game 1s seldom change the big picture in as playoff series, and this one is no exception. Read more
Stoudemire Key to Semifinals
Posted by Joe Gilmartin on May 4, 2007 4:18 PM
"Give me three reasons why the Suns will beat the Spurs," my hooked-on-hoops neighbor demanded.
"Amare Stoudemire, Amare Stoudemire, Amare Stoudemire," I replied.

A Classic in the Making
Posted by Gary Bender on May 4, 2007 12:17 PM
Many times we in the media can get carried away in our preview of a game or series that's to be played. But, this year's series between the Suns and Spurs warrants all the attention we can give it. The second round meeting between these two teams will be a war!! Read more

Emotional Day Ends with Win for New Father Bell
Posted by Jeramie McPeek on May 3, 2007 3:25 AM
Raja Bell could hardly contain himself. Although he was going on "three or four" hours of sleep, having spent the night at the hospital with his expectant wife Cindy, the Suns' guard was bouncing off the walls prior to Game 5. Read more
Day-Long Blog and I Want To Go Home
Posted by Brad G. Faye on May 3, 2007 3:14 AM
It probably wasn't the wisest decision to wait until 2:30 in the morning to write the intro to my day-long blog. The right words are difficult to come by at this time (as is a decent meal), but what a day it was. Here it is from start to finish: Read more
Quirky Suns Muscle Way to Win
Posted by Joe Gilmartin on May 3, 2007 1:35 AM
One thing everybody agrees on about the Suns is that they are different. And most of the time almost everybody says Vive la Difference! But there's one "difference" that's really not all that much to "vive" about. Read more
