The Suns had a great showing last night, beating the Houston Rockets 124-119. Steve Nash had a great game, netting 25 points and 17 assists in the win. And is it just me or is the most exciting part of the game when the 2nd unit comes in. The team of Amundson, Tucker, Dudley, Swift and Goran Dragic (pictured above looking like he's 16 years old) may not be the most gifted bunch, but damn do they play hard.
Unfortunately for the Suns they are still 4 games out of the playoffs because the Mavericks beat the Miami Heat by two freakin' points in Dallas on Wednesday (serenity now!). This leaves only 7 games to make up a 4 game defecit, although Alvin Gentry doesn't seem to awful worried.
Just about everything that can go wrong for the Suns has this year; every time they get a big win, so do the teams in front of them, and every time the teams in front of them lose, the Suns have an embarrassing defeat. Every time the Suns win a couple games in a row, they lose a star player. It just isn't their year. It's like when you take the early flight home from San Diego and you find two naked blindfolded people ready to hop out of your bathroom like a damn magic show, it's just not good.
