Suns 09'-10' schedule released

[TASTIC]

Time to plan the (hopefully) annual Suns Road Trip

Who's coming to Florida for @MIA and @ORL, followed by @BOS?

DO IT

lol our nat'l TV count is lower than normal. Goes with the times I guess.

[JohnVancouver]

good to see we got more games on ESPN than TNT. lol we sucked when we played on TNT last season . we did better on ESPN lol

And the news gets better and better - no Mark Jackson this year, except as a half-time guest. he has accepted the coaching gig, right?

Haha yeah I don't get it. The schedule means absolutely nothing. Hell I wish we played the tough teams the most since the Playoffs are our tragic flaw. We need to get these young guys in front of the powerhouses as much as possible. And also, games earlier/later in the season are like 6 of 1, half a dozen of the other. Would you rather win 40% then have to catch up later in the season when Nash is tired, or would you rather clean up early on and then have to keep the act together? Some teams stop trying later on in the season, etc etc. A 42-40 team is not gonna win 50 games no matter what the schedule is.

I guess this is a basketball forum though, and with our front office what else is there to talk about than the schedule. The only way I'll use it is to plan how I will travel around the Southeast to catch as many games as I can. Maybe save up some money for a trip out to PHX.

Wrong.
Schedules means something. Its harder to play in back-to-back games. Road games take a toll too. Even Kobe said the teams like Chicago, Hornets, Memphis have it easier because their flights aren't as long to get to home and away games. Its alot more exhausting than you may think.

I think we had 17 B2B games last season

I could see venturing down to FL this nov.... I mean, its what we geezers do

[DirtyDez]

I must of miscounted... bright side is reporting 20 back to back sets... that sucks hardcore.

20 is average compared to every other team, here's the chart, Bulls have the most hornets have the least amount of B2B games... http://www.hoopsworld.com/Story.asp?story_id=13508

The Suns are still the most entertaining team to watch apparently. The Suns didn't even make the playoffs yet they tie for fifth in games being nationally televised.

Yeah you are right but every team has those things. One team might have more back to back, another may have longer road stretches. In the end, it all evens out. There has never been an NBA champion crowned because of a favorable schedule.

It's good we got a lot younger. Our younger players will cope better with back to backs allowing our vets to last longer.

[Risensun]

For once the Suns don't get screwed over. Not a bad schedule at all.
