YAYsports! NBA

So like Shawn Marion requested the trade thing, and now the Suns are kinda looking at the situation and saying, “nah”.
With only about 3 teams that are possibly in the mix to add the Suns disgruntled power forward, there aren’t a lot of options.
This is especially true because one of those teams is the […]

The NBA Draft is Thursday, and it’s debatable whether the big news is where Oden, Durant, the Chinese Guy, and all the rest will end up OR where the burgeoning cluster of tradable NBA All-Stars* fall to in the endgame.
Basically, you’ve got Kevin Garnett, Kobe Bryant, Jermaine O’Neal, Paul Pierce, Pau Gasol, and Ron Artest […]

As you likely know by now, the Western Finals is all set, as the Spurs knocked off the Suns in Game 6 last night. And you know what? That’s fine.
Sure, the Suns would be more entertaining in the next round, but the Spurs won - fair and square - no questions asked; no exceptions. […]

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 […]

On the day that Dirk Nowitzki is scheduled to receive his MVP trophy, Steve Nash and the PHX Suns are basking in the glow of a road win over the Spurs.
Said win brings their series to 2-2, re-establishing Phoenix’s home court advantage, and alleviates the possiblity of a ratings-challenged Spurs-Jazz Western Conference Finals, at […]

(This is the sentence wherein we pay lip service to the Suns-Spurs Game 3 (Winner in bold!), which was a better game, with more interesting storylines, and a more important outcome series-wise.)
If you’re making a list of complaints about lasterday’s Cleveland loss to New Jersey, you may want to start with something along the […]

A common theme among recaps of yesterday’s Suns-Spurs Game 1 will center on Dirk Nowitzki’s upcoming MVP trophy presentation.
Because we love a good cliche, we shall go the same route, and note that while Dirk was sitting home lasterday, the other main candidate, Steven Nash, was simultaneously trying to get back into a tight game […]

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 […]

TrueHoop Henry emailed us this pic from the Lakers-Suns game lasterday, suggesting we might like to mess with it in some way. Perhaps in celebration of PHX being up 3-1, and yet another first round series becoming a non-event.
Allow us to explain a few things here, okay?
1) We rarely do requests.
2) When you title […]
