Thank you very much! I'd give it all up in a New York minute, for my SUNS to come through victorious, this year! Stay strong, Phoenix! GO SUNS, GO!!!

Yes. With Brandon Roy back on the court, the initial debate IS a moot point. Statistically speaking: Phoenix IS the better team. The series comes down to a battle of the wills. There is no statistical category to determine a team's will to focus, hit their shots, hold off the opposing team, and win the series. 2-2 = 0. Let the series begin!

GO SUNS, GO!!!!!!!!!

Brando Roy was activated for today's game, but wasn't expected to play. According to game announcers, Roy, IS going to START in today's game! Allllllllrighty then! THIS is what I wanted to see! Sadly, Brandon Roy, IS still injured ----not 100%, of course.

IT'S GAMETIME!!!!!!!! GO SUNS!!!!!

Getting back to the original question/debate: At this stage in the series (after seeing both teams face-off) My answer is, NO! The Blazers have no chance of winning this series without (or even with) Brandon Roy. Objectively speaking: The Phoenix Suns are the better team of the two, and are leaving it all on the court! GO SUNS!!!!

A follow up to my analysis/comments to my previous post, via: Jared Dudley, himself: "We've yet for our bench to have an explosion and that will come," Dudley said. "Starters are handling their business. They have been here before. They're doing what they're supposed to. Through the playoffs, you're only going to see the bench improve." I called the Suns' overall Game 3 performance "mediocre." Paul Coro of AZcentral, called it: "Sub-par" ..... "Sub-par shooting: The Suns have routed the Blazers twice and still don't have two of their top three reserve scorers in an offensive rhythm yet." - Paul Coro

We're clearly on the same page!

GO SUNS!!!

Following Game 3 - at The Rose Garden: Nice house you have there in Portland. The SUNS certainly felt comfortable. They may have felt a bit too comfy in the 3rd, letting the Blazers back into the game. But from the ashes, "the Phoenix rises." The Suns' main characters, had a weak game, yet this unit's supporting cast of characters, rose to the occasion. After all, even the pine-riders, ARE just as much of this team, as Mr. #1 himself. The Suns know, as do the Blazers ....we can do GREAT damage in YOUR house! The Suns had a mediocre night (with the exception of J-Rich w/42). We held the Blazers to 89 .....in THEIR house. Even with Channing Frye, going 0-7, he still grabbed 7 boards. Our charity-stripe shooting, was less than impressive. The Blazers have the pressure of 'saving face' at the Garden. The Suns only need to play GOOD "Suns Ball", and bring it on home! The Suns are in the driver's seat. The Suns are on a mission The Suns are focused! See you Saturday! GO SUNS!!!

WHAT a difference a game makes! The Suns came out in Game 2 like gangbusters, and NEVER looked back! The Suns are playing SUNS Basketball! No more Playoff jitters! The Suns WILL win this series. See you in Portland, then back to The Purple Palace in Phoenix! GO SUNS!!!!

In the 2010 Playoffs, the Suns lost ONE game in THIS series. The score stands: Suns: 0 Blazers: 1 The Suns did NOT play "Suns Basketball" in game 1 of the 2010 series. With the way the Suns played, I'm surprised they finished with a mere 5 pt. loss. At this point (after ONE game) I'm not overly concerned. As I previously stated: Tuesday's game (tomorrow) will be a good indicator of what's to come for the Suns.

I didn't see the Suns, STOP Miller, either. The Suns played nervous. The result: poor execution, out-played and out-coached, in game 1. The Suns, all but handed that game to Portland. Heartbreak Hotel. It's only ONE game. The Suns will get their act and their game together.

Well, the Suns beat the Suns in their 1st 2010 Playoff game. Tuesday's upcoming game, will be more of a true indicator of things to come.

GO SUNS!
