[-SDU-]

33

[Shuttlesworth]

The Suns have a total of 18 back-to-back sets, with the toughest set being our season opener(SAS) followed by our home opener the next day (NOH).

The Up and Comer (Oden) Vs. The Chugging Diesel on Nov. 1st

We also have a tough B2B with Detroit and Utah in Nov.
And a B2B with DAL and NO to open up December.

Marion makes his return to the valley on Nov. 28th. We get a good glimpse of a healthy Wade and a first look at Beasley.

D'antoni and his crew come into town fairly early in the season and give us a nice and early Christmas present on Dec. 15th.

The longest Road trip is six games from Jan 18th-26th featuring TO, BOS, WAS and our beloved Knicks.

We play the Re-Tooled Clippers on a B2B February 17-18th and play the OKC team for the first time (20th) right after that.

We have 25 nationally televised games on tnt, espn or abc. Didnt we have like 30 or more last year?

I counted 25 Laker games on national TV, so at least we are keeping pace...

[rsavaj]

Sorry, somehow missed the thread that was already started. Thanks for merging.

[Miklo]

Hah I was thinking about going through and predicting W's and L's for every game but then I thought "nobody is gonna read that ish"...though I agree with most of your predictions.

[BurningHeart]

I'm glad we have a "light" April....

[whambamslam]

5 of our first 7 on the road. Could be a slow start.
