    And thanks to Amare for also missing an offensive rebound next time down that went off both his hands!:D

    If Stoudamire makes his free throw at the end of the game, they would likely go to overtime with Chandler fouled out and the Suns having momentum.

    As a Bulls fan, all I can say is that's Amare.

    <u>Next 8 for the Suns:</u>
    @ Bucks
    Hornets
    @ Spurs
    Blazers
    Wolves
    @ Warriors
    Kings
    @ Rockets

    Not a single easy game during that stretch. If they can't even beat the Bulls I don't see them winning any, I mean many, of their next 8.

    Next 9 for us:

    @NY 25th Feb
    @WAS 27th Feb
    SA 2nd Mar
    @DET 4th Mar
    @TOR 5th Mar
    NJ 8th Mar
    LAC 12th Mar
    CHI 14th Mar
    PHO 16th Mar

    Should win at least 5 of those games.

    Then 5 game road trip @ SEA, POR, GS, SAC, LAC. Then the Lakers at Houston.

    Isn't it great being back in the hunt? This time last year we were talking about the draft.


    I love it.

    Just as I predicted right before the ASG, both Suns and Jazz would fade down the stretch. I see us getting the 7th seeds. :D

    I don't see them winning any of those games. They'll be lucky to win 2. The hornets and the warriors but I highly doubt it.

    Thanks to the great $170 NBA League Pass, I could only watch the Bulls-Suns game while you guys were cheering for Cat's 3s.

    :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    I've watch only five Suns' game this season, so it's unfair for me to judge Amare. But if only based on on tonight's game, Amare only showed he's a good rebounder, that's it. He got shut down by Marshall/ Tyson and he couldn't guard either of them at the other end of the court. Missed crucial FTs and very lazy at D. He powered his way into the lane but lacked the size to finish when facing the 7'1" Tyson.

    Well... I still loves his game, as a rookie. But apprentally he's no KG, no Kemp. He's going to improve the jumpers, FTs, post moves.... but.... I mean he's not that atheletic as hyped. :cool:

    They should seriously start worring about getting knocked off the 9th spot by Golden State. :D :D

    No offense but the if the Rockets were to lose their next game and Phoenix were to win their next game, they'd be back out of the playoff spot, and all hell would break loose again on this forum. I'm optimistic about our guys and our schedule, but lets be realistic. We've by no means clinched a playoff spot just yet. I do like the Rockets schedule and think it's much more favorable to them then the Suns though. Also I think if the Rockets were to get hot at the right moment, they could be a six seed by the end of the season. But then again, the standings are too close to call at this point that I think you guys are celebrating prematurely. My heart roots for this team, but my realistic side says its too soon to start bragging.

    i don't see why anyone should think the jazz will fade any more so than the rockets clinching a playoff berth. the jazz play team ball and although they're playing .500 ball lately, the rockets are particularly tearing it up these days.

    What?!! Are you kidding me? We won like, er, never mind. :rolleyes:

    But I do expect the senior citizens in Utah to start losing. It's curtain time for the Stockton and Malone show.

    I certainly hope so, but havent we been saying that for the last 3-4 years?
    I dont think the Jazz will hold that 6th spot though.
