The Suns are rolling with offseason acqusitions Steve Nash and Q Richardson. Zaza and Danny will be able to contain Amare from completly going off, but I think Nash will have a big game. Suns by 9
Nash will kill the bucks with his ablility to penetrate into the lane. I think Marion and Amare, the usuals will have big games as well, nobody on the Bucks can contain them Suns by 17, 112-95
yea yea i agree with banks, the suns will kill the bucks...and they won that game last night to the nuggets..
Ill be going to this game tonight and I cant wait! Its gonna be great to see my Suns play their great ball live... Gonna see my 2 fav teams (although this year's bucks arent really a fav of mine like the last few years). Suns will kill em though... it'll be a fun game to watch!

So far he is perfect from the field with 8 points, and 7 rebounds. Looking pretty good so far. He is already on the way to surpassing his season averages. He is also doing pretty well considering he has Amare Stoudemire on him. Good first half from him. His performance will be key to whether the Bucks can come out with a huge confidence building win, or just sink lower in the standings and hurt their playoff chances. Let's see if he can keep this up! <font size="4">My Prediction:</font> It's closer than I expected. You want offense and the Bucks will give it to you. The Bucks are a very good offensive team and can give the Suns some trouble. Still despite their great first half and keeping up with the action aand only 4 points behind, I'm still going with the Suns. Their just the better team and down the stretch, they will probably execute. Still being able to play with the best team in the league will definitely stir up some confidence in the Bucks. I'm taking Phoenix by the score of 113-108 in a great, offensive exciting game!
Bucks came back close at the end... fun night. Upset I didnt see no Amare dunks. Desmond almost had the sweetest dunk besides the other one/s he had.
It was an awesome game to be at...really fun. The Suns are all a bunch of fun guys and they all hustle and shoot the lights out of the ball....they don't miss.
3 after 3 after 3 after 3... Q takes so many damn 3s, and I wanna add Jackson was a MAJOR plus to the Suns! He played great... Bucks kept it close at least. Im hoping to see the Suns again in Philly...
