Amare Stoudemire is an All-Star starter, and is it so hard to believe?
It sure feels strange with the way some people think the Suns would be better off dealing away their All-Star starter and rebuilding, but let’s not forget Amare has been a reliable scorer even if his rebounding has been, well, not exactly reliable.

Knicks 114, Suns 109 – Going nowhere fast

Suns forward Grant Hill uttered those words after Phoenix knocked off the Hawks to finish a 9-3 stretch since acquiring Jason Richardson a week ago Tuesday.

Celtics 104, Suns 87 – A Boston Massacre
