Nash tries not to let his condition mar his performance on the hardwood. He tries to keep moving while on the court. When he is taking a rest, he does not sit on the bench, but rather lies supine on the end line to keep his muscles from stiffening.[sup][39][/sup]
 
And people say suns can't play d... well anyways that was the best game I think the suns have had this whole season and matrix is nice.. Very nice. Thatnash interview was the funniest thing I've ever seen. Haha!

Wiki edit: scorching gaping hemroids.

Suns still can't play D. Scrappy doesn't not equal great D.

How convenient that you leave out the San Antonio Spurs on that list.

Their opponents' are shooting over 46%.

at nash talking to cheryl miller with that lisp.

Anyone feel weirded out watching it
 
That was a great game. The Suns once again proved that they step it up when they play the good teams. It's just frustrating that we can't play thatwell when we play trash teams like Minnesota.

Matrix was the key to the game...he scored, crashed the boards, played solid defense...just your typical Matrix game.

I am concerned that we got virtually nothing from anyone other than Trix, Steve, and Stat. Diaw had a couple of strong moves to the hole...but other than that,Bell, Diaw, Barbosa, and Hill all didn't do too much.
It's going to be difficult to win games if at least one of those guys doesn't contribute consistantly.
Barbosa has been terrible lately. He's lost his confidence for some reason.

Next up we have a tough road trip to New Orleans, San Antonio* and Dallas.
These three games might really show what the Suns are made of this year.
