Steve Nash’s contract runs out after this upcoming season, but that doesn’t mean that the Suns point guard doesn’t want to continue playing in the NBA.

With the playoffs now underway, it is now time to take a look at the Suns season. Despite the disappointment of not making the playoffs for the second time in three seasons, Phoenix still had many bright spots and some surprises throughout the 2010-2011 campaign. I will take a look at who deserved some of those accolades this season. (more…)
Aaron Brooks Adjusting to New Role in Phoenix
Nearly two weeks into being in a Suns uniform, Aaron Brooks is still making adjustments to his role with his new team. His game has been up and down and some fans are starting to grow impatient.
If you take the Boston game out of the equation, a game in which Brooks went off for 17 points and seven assists, the point guard has mostly struggled.

Vince Carter, Hakim Warrick Step up in Phoenix Suns victory

Carter more than made up for his two missed free throws that he had the other night when Phoenix had the chance to retake the lead from Oklahoma City in overtime. Warrick set a career high in scoring in replacing Channing Frye in the starting lineup. He also had eight rebounds and four assists. (more…)
Phoenix Suns Lose Channing Frye, Game to Oklahoma City Thunder

The Suns let the game get away from them after having control of the game for most of the first 36 minutes. Phoenix had a five-point lead to start off the fourth, but missed 10 of their 13 shots and committed five turnovers and scored just six points in the first eight minutes so the Thunder could eventually tie things up and send it to an extra five-minute session.
