The Fire Back in Phoenix


I am watching this Suns vs. Hornets game tonight, and as I look up at the score, the Suns already have 75 points at halftime. The run-and-gun Suns transition offense is back. With the departure of Shaq, who by the way just completely ruined things in Phoenix, the Suns are back to their running ways. Starting off the season 7-1, looking to be 8-1 after tonight, the Suns are scoring quickly and effectively. They have 6 players averaging double digits, and a seventh player who averages nine. The Suns are also averaging 110 points per game and Nash is leading the league in assist at 12.9 per contest. I know there has been all this talk about Deron Williams and Chris Paul being elite point guards, and rightfully so. But what about Steve Nash? When he is in this offense and in the open court, I don't think their is a soul on planet earth better than him. By the way, he has already had two 20 assist outings this year. Yeah you remember him, the two-time MVP, forget what happened last year, the Suns are back to their old selves and Nash is leading the way.
