I hope Amare destroys Oberto as badly as Gilbert will shred our perimieter D.

Oberto is an ex Spur so expect flops from him.

Arenas 42 points!

Suns by 7

Gil torched us for 55 last time we played him healthy. But i think we hang on this time.

Jamison's out so the Suns should win this one. It's possible to end up 7-1 on this road trip but even 6-2 doesn't look bad.

Suns win by 10.

Amar'e needs to destroy that front court, especially with Frye being able to stretch the floor. Gil might be held if they start Richardson on him and Nash on Miller, which they might.

I just hope the Suns aren't still on cloud 9 from the C's win. I think part of the reason they lost to Orlando was because they were feeling the high of being undefeated. Probably much of the same can be applied to the C's loss tonight.

You step into any game feeling untouchable, or underestimating the other team, and you're sure to come out with a sore ass.

Suns-137
Wizards-86

Steve Nash break's the single game assist record.
Amare breaks oberto's index, pinky, and ring fingers on a dunk.
Leandro smiles a whole lot.
Thunder Dan yells "Holla".

hooooollaaaaaaaaaa

I like the prediction with Amare's strength crushing Oberto's hand.

is LB back for this one?

How awesome would a Suns/Cards sweep be on Sunday Morning!

I'll be watching the Cardinals game over this, but I hope we win this one. I think Washington is better than the 2-4 record they have right now and Gil (UofA!) will probably go off.

We're going to win this game for sure. I think our confidence will be really high after last night's game. Like I mentioned before this road trip, I envisioned a 4-1 trip and I think that's what we're looking at here.

Dudley is a beast.

I think this game should be a win. Suns are playing at a high level. Everyone is clicking and the defense looked great against the Heat and Celtics. The Wizards just don't have the talent right now to scare me. Blatche is the only real wild card. Other then him the team is Foye, Arenas, Haywood and Butler. Miller, Young, Oberto, Stevenson and McGee shouldn't scare the Suns right now. McGee could have a nice game but he really doesn't have an all around game yet and probably won't see much time.

Arenas is not the same player he once was. Still a great player that will finish the season at 22-25 points, but not the same monster that killed the Suns.

+1

and seems like the Wizards got some serious problem on their own.....

I don't think it can be said how important it is to have players like dudley, like ariza like bruce bowen when he was clean in his defense ( which was honestly probably only 40 percent of the time) players like artest RAJA BELL players who frustrate other perimeter scorers. Basketball is such a rhythm game and once the rhythm is disrupted only the best of shooters and scorers step up and make baskets. It's almost as easy as if you're allowed space to shoot bend your knees extend get your shot off uncontested and you make one it becomes a routine you develop in the game which allows you to have the confidence to hit any shot on the floor after you start hitting a few. your confidence is high enough that you start making plays with the ball without the ball cutting harder, crossing over harder everything that makes it harder on the defense once you have confidence. guys like dudley are CONFIDENCE KILLERS. they make you work for everything. that's why we love dudley. all hustle all the time. love this guy.

I'm not even joking when I say he's not only the mvp of the bench i'd say but probably 2nd or 3rd most important player on the team in terms of how he impacts the game and rallies the team to hustle like him.

PHOENIX IS NUMBER 1 SEAT in the WEST!!!! if someone were to tell u that during the offseason you'd be like BS
