My Suns

I LOVE MY TEAM! As bad as the first 2 games for us were, the second two in Phoenix have more than made up for them. After those 2 losses in LA, we made defensive adjustments and went to a zone defense, which isn't typically played in basketball passed a certain point of competition and certainly is not played in the playoffs for an entire game, but we have played it the last 2 games and really stumped the Lakers into shooting outside jumpers and 3's. They haven't been able to penetrate or get inside the paint very easily. We will see what happens when the guys go back to LA with the zone defense but last night was probably the funnest game to watch. It was so exciting. The Phoenix Suns are not MY team because I live in Gilbert AZ, they are MY team because they play the style of basketball that I am most inspired by and the style that I am most attracted to, fast paced, ball movement, 3 ball, crazy assists, big dunks! I LOVE it! It is a real TEAM. As Kenny Smith (TNT) said, "The starters put the charcoal in the BBQ, but the bench comes in and lights it up!" I wish I would have taped the game last night, that's how good it was, but here is a recap, and the celebration afterward! I've said it before and I'll say it again, this year, this 2009-2010 Phoenix Suns team is my favorite Phoenix Suns team in history, including the Charles Barkley years in the early 90's...and yes I remember watching those teams. This is my favorite Phoenix Suns team so far and it probably will be forever. I LOVE this team!
