PHOENIX SUNS
by Dan of Bright Side of the Sun
Recap Rewind: The Suns beat the Sonics, the Lakers, and the Jazz to keep up their winning streak. They didn't have a lot to play for over the last two games of the season after Tim Duncan was kicked out of a game for laughing and the Spurs lost to the Mavericks to help the Suns secure the second seed. The Suns lost the last two games of the season when they ended up playing teams that needed the wins more than they did.
Notable News: Scoop Jackson interviewed Steve Nash about possibly winning his third MVP and reporters in AZ are trying to cause problems between the Suns players.
Fast Forward: The Suns will meet the Lakers in the first round of the playoffs. Suns fans are hoping this series isn't a repeat of last year's first round where it took the Suns going down 3-1 in the series and finally pulling it out in game 7. It would be nice to have a little less stress this year and actually win in 4-5 games. But as everyone knows, the Lakers have Kobe Bryant and with him, nothing is guaranteed. It should be a good series.
