Suns, first team to 12 wins, best record in the West. Memphis was dangerous having won 4 out of 5 coming in but they were put away in the second quarter by a Suns team that almost appears to be toying with the opposition early and then stepping on the gas and pulling away. Rebounding continues to be a work in progress, but with all the hustle, firepower, bench support and now a defensive presence, it's not as glaring. If Lopez can come back and even do an average job with the rebounding, I believe were one of the top 5 teams in the NBA. Time will tell, but so far this has been as good as it gets.

The strategy of just getting 3-4 key stops in the 4th is brilliant. When a team runs as much as we do, it makes it a bit tought to knuckle down on defense for 48 (24?) minutes. The guys have obviously bought into the idea that they can get the necessary stops when needed, and our record shows it. Wherever this season takes us, it will be a fun ride, and we all get to be a part of it! Keep up the belief. PS. You can be sure that Nash, Hill, Amare, and Company aren't aiming at anything less than a championship - one game at a time. Enjoy! Dear Planet Orange:

This start is better than anyone could've asked for but keep in mind that a long road trip looms. Couple that with the fact that the spurs are not healthy yet, Gasol is back for the lakers (man I hate them!), and nuggets, blazers, and mavs are looking good, for the Suns to contend for the top seed in the west will be a tall order. I'm not saying its not possible, and the start has certainly put us in a position to make a run...I'm only asking fellow fans to be cautious about the expectations. A couple of positive notes...I think we're grittier than we've ever been and I can't wait to see Robin in the line to solidify interior defense and rebounding. Like I said in my earlier post, Let's keep it rolling! I think we'll have a better idea of where the team stands after the quarter poll. wow geniusacamel…seemed to have struck a nerve. no need for the jabs about knowing your basketball…The fact that 17 of our first 26 are on the road has not escaped me.

Realistically, they probably won't finish ahead of the Lakers and possibly the Nuggets, but I sure hope they are at least aiming for the top spot, we may not get it but don't aim low.

Yes, this Suns fan is smiling and yes I have pinched myself more than once already this season just to make sure I'm not dreaming. Amare looks to be all the way back now. Drajic is a HUGE surprise. Barbossa is coming along, and Lopez will be coming back to add another element to an already very good bench. Suns had that "something special" again tonight against Detroit and they are a tough bunch to handle when it kicks in. Make no mistake, we will continue to have problems with the back to backs ( father time waits for no one) but this year I think we don't have to concede every game when the three's don't fall or the fast breaks are limited. Suns are a more diverse team than in previous years, and maybe thats the element we have been missing? Whatever seed we end up one thing is for sure, if everybody is healthy I would not count the Suns out against any team in the NBA. Hope your holiday is a good one Joe.

Just lovin the energy and effort that J-dud and Loooouuuuu are bringing off the bench. Kid Canada is looking scary. The start is definitely unexpected but welcome. Tryin not let me get ahead of myself. Think that a 3 or 4 seed would be amazing...but a 5 /6 seed more likely. Hope we keep it rollin!!! Hey fellow suns fans…awesome win, the boys looked great.
