Suns Watch!
Considering the Suns have now lost 5 in a row  , and the fact that we are on a bit of a roll, we are now only 3.5 games. A few weeks previous to today we were around 8-9 games back. So this thread is intended to keep an eye on our division leader, and our continuing surge to overtake the division.
Memphis 88 at 79 Phoenix
Kings are 3.5 games back

I predict by the end of the month Sac will take over Pacific and the best record in the L.

But Nash will be back on Friday so maybe they will get back to their winning ways.

Against San Antonio? I think they lose that bad boy.

To tell you the truth I'm not really that much worried for the #1 spot.
Either way, we gotta win on the road in the playoffs so even if we're #8 if we're good we'll win the whole thing. If not, we'll still find ways to lose and #1 can do nothing about it.

It was only a matter of time until the Suns began to give way. I agree with DaUnbreakableKinG though, I don't think home court advantage is gonna be the difference maker for this team. This team has had HCA in the past, with nothing to show for it. They have also won games on the road in the playoffs in the past, so that is not the major obstacle. They need to focus on peaking at the right time (and keeping guys healthy!!!!).
I like the way the team has looked since the trade, and but I think our real test will be playing the Spurs with this new lineup (I think we play them a couple more times in this month). That will show us how we stack up in the Western Conference.

We play the Spurs twice in the next 4 games (1 at home, 1 on the road)

I'd say 3 weeks and the Suns will be in the rearview window.
