Possibly the only thing more aggravating than being eliminated from the postseason again, is to be “detained” in the arena where the latest elimination took place. Read more

Adam Beechen’s playoff beard died Tuesday night at 9:34 pm in San Antonio after a brief, painful and familiar illness. It was thirteen days old. Read more

Although they're playing the champs on their home-court, I'm going to deliver to you why, despite facing elimination, I think the Suns are going to pull out Game 5.

It’s a strange game isn’t it!! There’s a fine line between success and failure in the NBA. Read more

There were 25 reporters crowded around Raja Bell's locker after the game today. Yes, I counted. That's 25 more than Game 3, as he ducked out the backdoor before the media was let in after Friday's ugly loss. Read more

I don’t know if this was their last appearance here this year or not, but just in case it was, the Suns certainly left their fans laughing with their broom-busting act. And how sweep it wasn’t! Read more

Suns Head Coach Mike D’Antoni said he didn’t have any answers after Game 3. He said that he hasn’t seen a team play that well and that perfectly-played game has left the Suns down 3-0 to their nemesis.

OUCH!!! No, that won’t quite get it. More like AAAAaaaaagh! Read more

My Playoff Beard and I are not pleased. Read more

Our plane wastes no time in surging up through the thick blanket of clouds covering San Antonio. No, the Suns did not shine in that city this weekend. Read more

As with every basketball fan, I sit from my comfortable position on the couch and analyze what goes wrong with my favorite team. In the case of the Suns tonight, I think it was mostly all mental. As former Yankee great Yogi Berra once said, “90 percent of the game is half-mental.”

The playoff history of the Phoenix Suns is an entertaining, yet ultimately unfulfilling tale. While their rivals in San Antonio and Los Angeles have celebrated numerous championships, the Suns have an empty trophy case and have redefined the sentiment “what might have been.” Read more

The AT&T Center is just a building. It's a mix of steel, brick and glass that many say resembles a barn. Every February it houses tons of dirt and livestock during the San Antonio rodeo. Read more

“That’s one of the best games I’ve ever seen in all my years in the NBA” Those were the words of ABC analyst Jeff Van Gundy during the telecast Sunday in LA between the Lakers and Nuggets. He of course was referring to the double over-time thriller in game one between the Suns and Spurs. Read more

I was nearly finished writing a superb blog about Shaquille O’Neal’s contributions to a Game 1 victory, but it all went to pot somewhere around the time Tim Duncan started looking like Reggie Miller.

You could say I'm home again, but this time it's in hostile territory. Read more

I was going through some old photos the other day when I stumbled across one which, to be honest, kind of grossed me out a little. Read more

So let’s get ready to rumble… In the orange corner, the challenger, scoring more points than Brad Pitt on a first date… the Phoenix Suns. And in the silver corner, the champion, hated by grandmothers and puppies everywhere, the San Antonio Spurs… Read more

When it comes to San Antonio, (I'm from Texas, you know), I've seen it all before - the flat prairie land, the different highways and interstates. Read more

Hey guys, I wanted to make sure I checked back in, as I’m sure these next few weeks will be hectic to say the least. We closed out the regular season last night with a victory over the Portland Trail Blazers and getting the opportunity to contribute was a great way to close out the 2007-08 campaign. Read more

Well, this is what we've all been waiting for - the playoffs. Unlike the past few seasons though, we're not in a position to look very far ahead. After what has arguably been the most competitive conference race in the history of the NBA, the West's matchups look positively scary. Read more

The Suns could hardly have asked for anything more on the final (finally!!!) day of the regular season. Oh, they could have hoped a combination of circumstances would give them the home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs, but that was the longest of long shots anyway. Read more

It’s really much more of a tradition in sports like football, baseball and hockey. Every year, once the regular season ends and the “second season” begins, hardy warriors on teams that remain in the hunt opt to not shave their whiskers until their team either wins it all or is eliminated.

Mathematics is the reason I write. Make no mistake: that’s not a positive correlation. Read more

The guest list for the Big Dance, NBA version, is finally complete. But exactly who will dance with whom and where in the West is still as undecided with only two days to go in the season as it was two months ago. Read more

It seems that in the past few season, the Phoenix Suns have known well in advance of the playoffs who their first round opponent would be. Such is not the case this season. Read more

The Phoenix Suns have three games left in their season: against the Houston Rockets tonight, Golden State Warriors on Monday and Portland Trailblazers on Wednesday. By Thursday, we'll know who our first opponent is and when the first round of the playoffs starts for Phoenix. Read more

Over the past week, we've discussed several different topics: back-to-backs, the Spurs record over the Suns, the way San Antonio has held Phoenix to the 2nd fewest points of the season. Yet all of those trends were kicked to the ground last night. Read more

As we discussed yesterday, the Suns did well again in the first game of their last back-to-back series of the season. Now it's on to San Antonio where they will face a more formidable opponent. Read more

In case you can’t tell from my previous blogs (or the career path I’ve chosen), I am a huge sports fan. My love of sports is what got me into television. Read more

The Phoenix Suns' games on Tuesday and Wednesday are the last back-to-back games of the season. After looking at the numbers in those games, I am very glad there are no back-to-back's in the playoffs. Read more

There are 5 games left in the season and the Phoenix Suns are currently the 6th seed in the Western Conference. If the playoffs started today, they would play the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round. Read more

No matter what you may have heard, the Suns did NOT shoot themselves in the foot in the fourth period Sunday. Read more

What do you get on a night when a very good home team that can’t do anything wrong meets a very bad road team that can’t do anything? Read more

We've all seen the gaudy numbers Amare Stoudemire has put up the past few games. He's been nothing short of incredible. Many experts have credited the presence of Shaquille O'Neal with the surge. I thought we might look at the numbers to see just how much The Big Cactus has helped. Read more

A few weeks ago (March 10 to be exact), Suns.com linked to some pictures on InsideHoops.com showing Shaq getting a ride from a guy with a Honda. Read more

Much has been said about Shaq’s free throw shooting since he has come to the Suns. I figured with several games under his belt, it would be a good time to look at the numbers. Read more

I was anxious for the second game of the Suns/Nuggets home-and-home series to see what Denver would bring and how Phoenix would react. I wasn’t disappointed. Read more

Monday's game against Denver had everything you always wanted to see from a Phoenix Suns team. At least for the last quarter and a half. Read more

Be honest. How many of you who watched the game on Monday changed the channel at halftime thinking the Suns had no chance to win? Read more

They must have dusted off one of those old wrestling scripts for this one. Read more
