We’re going to discuss this Suns/Spurs business one more time, now that we’ve heard from the offending (and offended) parties.
This is a non-joke zone, because we actually have an opinion here, and it’s probably not the popular one, based on what we’ve read elsewhere. (Please read carefully before you yell at us.)
After watching all the […]

The Phoenix Suns trounced the Lakers of LA last night 119-110, thus ending the Lakers season and sending them on their way to begin their quilt making classes. The Suns played like a well oiled machine during the series and turned this much anticipated series into one that looked more like a series of events […]

Like we said, Lakers-Suns was really the first game of these Playoffs we’ve been able to watch, despite our implication in the previous post that we’d been bored by ORL-DET.
(In fact, we were bored by it - by the very existience of it.)
Anyway, the Lakers went ahead and rebirthed themselves last night with […]

With the Suns on the brink of becoming the first team ever to win all of their season’s road games against the opposite conference, last night’s game against the Seventy-Sixers had to be a gimme.
Surely the inspiration of such a distinction as becoming the first team ever to win all of their season’s road […]

The big excitement in the post-All-Star NBA was the gallant return of PHX point guard Steve Nash, who came back last night to help the Suns beat up on the Clippers here in LA.
Despite taking a scary charge from Elton Brand, Steve was safe and sound and playing decently, although by everyone’s admission, he was […]

In a shocking decision, Stephen Jackson violated his probation by recklessly firing his gun in the air to threaten people.
The Suns win their 16th straight, and Bright Side of the Sun find the whole experience of watching an actual close game thrilling, yet confusing.
Mike Wilbon makes a lot of money from ESPN, and you know […]

Well, now that we’re fully back onboard spiritually with the Cavaliers, we can begin once again speaking of each and every game as if it’s some sort of monumental event of which will never be seen again.
Yes, tonight the hottest team in the East goes to visit the hottest team in the West. The former […]

After a scary few weeks wherein it looked like this entire season may be played in some kind of upside-down parallel universe, things are starting to settle down and get back to normal.
Case in point, the PHX Suns have gone 6-1 in their last seven, and are now above .500 after their win over Portland […]

The voting for the Las Vegas All-Star Game is on, and you can go check out the ballot (and vote for LeBron) at NBA.com right now.
As always, there are a few “Huh? For real?” names that have made it onto the list of potential All-Stars, and as always, we’re voting for them.
You’ve always wondered […]

It seems the hot new trend in making announcements among NBA players is to do it via their websites.
Kobe talked about his knee on his earlier this week, and now Jalen Rose has made his choice of team public on his personal blog.
Oh yeah - he’s going to Phoenix, allegedly to win a championship, […]
