Just know that I feel it's important to play our best.

Over the years, our best starting and finishing lineup has been a backcourt of LB and Nash.

That is why I sound like a broken record. Through repetition, I want to plant a seed. Because THIS combo has consistently produced wins. Not an issue for tonight's game. LB is hurt. He can't play. If we want to beat the best, we have to play our best. LOTS OF IMPORTANT GAMES LEFT THIS YEAR.

MUST start and ALSO finish with LB. Let's go SUNS!!!!

Haha Michael I was referring to The Z. Man actually. Your article is just fine.

I actually skimmed through the daily dime ESPN chatter from the other night. You did the Suns proud handling some of those silly comments.

You can really tell that basketball fans looking in on the team are judging the Suns of this year by the accomplishments or failures of Suns teams past.

They still don’t recognize the bench play or the 4th quarter defense or the fact that these Suns are very efficient in the half court game now.

One particular question was about whether or not the Suns want to see the Spurs again this year in the playoffs if both teams win, but I don’t think the Spurs can handle the Suns the way they are constructed now and with Duncan limping around on one good leg.

I think the only team that is a serious issue is Los Angeles, but I think that can be fixed a bit once Lopez is back in the fold and up to speed IF he can stay out of foul trouble.

Thanks, KJ Loyalist. Yeah, it’s easy for people who don’t watch this team every day to think they’re the same old Suns, especially since their offensive numbers are so good and their defensive numbers aren’t.

I still worry about the Spurs because they’re the Spurs, and they’re even more loaded than usual with RJ, Dice and Blair. But yeah, Lakers are definitely the biggest obstacle. I just don’t see how the Suns can handle Gasol, Bynum and Odom along with that Kobe guy, but I think we’re a LONG way from having to seriously worry about that.

Is that a cut and paste message? I’m certain you’ve said that exact same thing in another post.

Barbosa doesn’t need to start if J Rich isn’t injured.

Haha, it wasn't cut and paste, although it probably seems like it is. I promise to wait at least a week until the next time I write about chemistry and camaraderie …….

Good chemistry makes all the difference on the road.

Just a good group – thank you for weeding the garden Steve Kerr.

Nash is a born leader. Nash would love to play more with LB.

MUST start and ALSO finish with LB. Let's go SUNS!!!!
