Wow, where do I start with the great Suns game tonight. They won a double overtime thriller 161-157 against the New Jersey Nets who decided to run with the Suns and almost did it as well as the Suns. The point totals are just impressive in and of itself. This is why the Suns are the best thing to happen to the NBA since Michael Jordan. But even more impressive was the PG match-up between Kidd (38-14-14) and Nash (42-6-13). Two of the best in the game doing what they do best. Career high in points for Nash and 78-th triple-double for Kidd tying Wilt Chamberlain for third all-time. Marion had 33-9 and Diaw had 16 points and 14 assists including the go-ahead basket in the low-post on a mismatch with Kidd defending. Thats just awesome numbers and this is the best game of this young season for Diaw. Diaw's back to the basket game might be the best in the team. Vince had 31 points, but fouled out (so did Amare). Cant wait to watch this one on ESPN classic.
Detroit walked into Dallas and won a BIG game against a red-hot Western conference team. Nowitzki had a monster game, but Billups distributed the ball really well to lead Detroit to a victory. Finally the Eastern conference has something to cheer about. Miami beat Sacramento in overtime. I was watching the game and was amazed to see how Miami had nothing except Wade! They are probably going nowhere anyways, but without Shaq, this team is barely even competitive. I guess Shaq misses games just to show the World how important he is even at 34. We all think he is done, but this team is significantly better with him than without him. Wade scored 32 to lead them against the Kings, but he is going to have problems carrying this team on his shoulders day-in and day-out.
Phoenix @ New Jersey - 161-157
Detroit @ Dallas - 92-82
Miami @ Sacramento - 93-91
Interesting games on the board for tomorrow, the Dec 8-th (Friday)
Nothing can probably match the Suns-Nets game, but we still can hope for some good games tomorrow.
Phoenix @ Boston – Hope the Suns are not too tired after the double-overtime classic today. After the Nets game, every Suns game should be in this list. Can they keep winning (and scoring)?
Detroit @ Orlando – The veterans against the upstarts. Lets see who wins.
Miami @ Denver – Wade VS Melo. Enough said.
