Re: Second Round.....Matchup
Very true. The Spurs are going to be tough. Even without Duncan the team is incredible.

Re: Second Round.....Matchup
That's the kinda attitude I hope our players don't have. I take it one game at a time. As the playoffs started, I didn't know what to expect. I just hope the rest benefits us and Mavs and Rockets tire themselves out. Both teams have looked shaky though. If they play the way they have been playing, I feel confident in us. But every series will be different. Grizz are not like the Mavs or Rockets so.

Re: Second Round.....Matchup
I actually now want to face the Mavericks more than the Rockets. It doesn't have anything to do with the players either. I just don't want the Suns to have to go threw that drama show nicknamed the Houston Rockets. They constantly bicker about the refs and it has completely ruined what could have been an enjoyable series between the Rockets and Mavericks. If they face the Suns we better watch out... because as we all know the Suns foul less than any team in the league... and if it continued that way there would probably be Rocket fans breaking into the homes of the Refs to try and strangle them. However the great thing is they are completely collapsing now from their own ineptitude so it doesn't look like we'll play them anyways.

Re: Second Round.....Matchup
I rather go vs. the rockets. But going against the Mavs would be sweet and then we beat them.

Wouldn't that be a dramatic series - Stevie VS Dirk.

Don't count your eggs just yet; and I don't want to be guilty of that either. If the Mavs get out of the 1st round, and if Dirty doesn't bust out against the Rox...he would probably have a 40 or 50 in him against the Suns.
That's a pair of ifs.

Well thanks for giving my Rockets cheap shots. FIrst of all, the reason why Phoenix doesnt foul as much is because..hmmm..let me guess,,,THEY DONT PLAY DEFENSE. all they want to do is score points, and not worry about playing defense. In my opinion you guys should want to play Houston instead of the Mavs because of redemption....in case u forgot, "The kiss of Death",,thats were our title, "clutch city" was born. I agree, Dirk vs. Nash would be fun, but i think beating houston would really fullfill the pain and suffering that you guys have had because of my team. Just ask Charles B. u think hes forgotten??i think not!

Whoa tone down the sig buddy. tempe wasn't taking cheap shots at your rockets, he is just saying it how it is. I mean Jeff Van Gundy saying things about the refs hating Yao? Thats pretty dumb IMO. And the reason the Suns don't foul is because of our fast paced game. We do play defense, just not consistently, but in the the playoffs, we will be more consistent.

Re: Second Round.....Matchup
Yet another chorus of "The Suns do not play defense!". Just keep telling yourself that, folks. If you say it often and loud enough, then you and everyone around you will believe it. And when enough people believe it, that will make it so.
Meanwhile, the Suns just keep on winning with their run-and-gun, no-D playing scheme...

Re: Second Round.....Matchup
We'll find who we play Saturday, Dallas or Houston.
Should be a hell of a game to watch.

Re: Second Round.....Matchup
 This week has been so boring with NO Suns games. I hope this rest benefits us and we come out on fire. I read a post today where someone said Mavs/Rockets winner will flatten us no matter..lol it's so funny how confident they sounded too.

Agreed. Doubt you guys can take the Rockets, Mavs would be a much better option.
