INSIDE THE CAVALIERS
Lebron James, LEBRON JAMES, Lebron James. There's nothing more you can say as he was the East Player of the Month in November averaging 30ppg, 10.1rpg and 7.1apg. He is doing it on the defensive end as well with 3.07spg and 1.14bpg. He is leading the MVP race as of now and if he can keep it up, he would be on his way to becoming one of the greats of the NBA.

INSIDE THE SUNS

Suns Start the Month Off Right
Phoenix wasted no time on the Cavaliers this time

Cavaliers-87
Suns-110


Stoudemire and the Suns sported their throwback uni's for the first time this season

PHOENIX, Arizona (AP) -- In a matchup of the league's top players in November, Steve Nash got the better of LeBron James. Nash scored 14 points and dished out 15 assists as the high-flying Phoenix Suns rolled to a 110-87 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers, avenging one of their two losses this season. The win was the Suns' ninth straight and pushed them to a league-best 13-2, their best start since 1980. "We got so many guys that can do so many incredible things," said Phoenix forward Amare Stoudemire, who scored 18 points. "We are playing like the best team in the league. We are playing strong all around."

James was named Eastern Conference Playersof the Month earlier in the day and he shined in their previous meeting this season against the Suns. James scored 22 points, dished out 10 assists and grabbed 8 rebounds in the game on Nov. 10 as the Cavaliers won a dramatic affair, 112-108. Nash, who scored 14 points and had 7 assists in that loss, showed why he deserved the monthly award for the West by leading a complete effort Wednesday. He was 4-of-7 from the floor, including 1-1 from the arc, and dished out 15 assists in the game. "They made shots and got the crowd behind them and into the game," said McInnis, who scored a season-high 24 points. "Stoudemire got a couple of dunks and Johnson got off on that third quarter. We just couldn't control their runs."

The matchup of Stoudemire and James pitted the league's last two Rookie of the Year Award winners, both straight out of high school, and two of the NBA's top players this season. "Me and LeBron came into the league very focused," Stoudemire said. "I think we are probably the best ever to do it coming out of high school. We came out ready and our skill level was pretty high." The Suns shot 55 percent (43-of-77) from the floor and outscored the Cavaliers 34-22 in the 2nd quarter to hold onto the best record in the league. "Right now I am more upset that we lost in Cleveland," Richardson said. "If we didn't lose there, we would have only one loss. I feel that both of those losses we should have won. I knew we would do better, but I didn't imagine 13-2." "There is nothing you can do when a team starts getting hot like that," James said. "They got a lot of easy buckets and started (making) that open J. We feed on transition baskets and energy but we didn't have it tonight."

Zydrunas Ilgauskas scored 16 points and Drew Gooden who had 18 points and 7 rebounds in the win over Phoenix in November, had similar numbers in this game with 20 points and 5 rebounds. "I wish we could have played those starting guys 48 minutes," Silas said. "I made some changes and we fell off and we couldn't really capture it. I just didn't think we were energized enough. We weren't lively, especially in the 2nd quarter." Phoenix, which is now 9-1 in back-to-back games, has won 10 of the last 12 games in the series, including six straight at America West Arena.

TIMBERWOLVES VS. SUNS
America West Arena, Phoenix, 6:00 p.m., PST

TV, radio: FSAZ; KTAR 620
Records: Timberwolves, 10-4; Suns, 13-2

KEY MATCHUP: AMARE STOUDEMIRE VS. KEVIN GARNETT
STAT vs. KG is what everybody wants to see. Stoudemire who is having a career-season in Phoenix will go up against a former young gun who came out of high school just like he did. Garnett averages 20.1ppg, 12.4rpg and 3.7apg for the 10-4 Timberwolves. Stoudemire is averaging 21.5ppg and 10.1rpg for the Suns. Their numbers stand pretty similar, so you can expect a great matchup tonight.

INSIDE THE TIMBERWOLVES
Minnesota was on a 5-game winning streak until it was snapped by the Memphis Grizzlies, then the Sacramento Kings got ahold of them by losing in a 93-84 affair. The Twolves then took three days off and traveled to Golden State to blow out the Warriors on New Year's Day 101-85. The Twolves leading scorer is Wally Szczerbiak averaging 22.4ppg.

INSIDE THE SUNS
The Suns are facing a tough team and they're probably the toughest team they have played since November 16 against the Dallas Mavericks. The Suns are looking to hang with the team that reached the Western Conference Finals last season.

Timberwolves End Suns Streak
Close game break the Suns heart in Phoenix

Timberwolves-105
Suns-102


Kevin Garnett with the clean block on Joe Johnson

PHOENIX, Arizona (AP) -- The Minnesota Timberwolves showed they intend to be a factor in the Western Conference. Kevin Garnett had 21 points and 14 rebounds and Latrell Sprewell added 27 points as the Timberwolves ended their 1-2 road trip with a 97-93 triumph over the red-hot Phoenix Suns. The Timberwolves had the best record in the West last season and reached the conference finals for the first time in franchise history. Minnesota posted a lost against Memphis before embarking on a four-game trip that started with losses at Sacramento and Golden State. In this one, they sent a message to the league's top team.

Entering with a nine-game winning streak, the Suns knew they were in for a battle after ending the first quarter 30-29 with the Timberwolves leading. After Minnesota carried a 15-point lead into intermission, Phoenix didn’t have enough firepower in the 4th quarter to complete a comeback. The Suns opened the fourth quarter with six straight points, but Sam Cassell sank three consecutive baskets to keep the game going the Timberwolves way. After Steven Hunter's free throw with 41 seconds remaining gave Phoenix a 105-102 deficit. The Suns were able to stop the Timberwolves on their next possession and the Suns got the rebound with 22 seconds left on the clock. Suns looked to let Nash take Cassell one-on-one, but Nash’s 3-pointer from the wing hit the back of the rim as time expired.

Cassell scored 16 points and Wally Szczerbiak added 22 for the Timberwolves, who conclude their road trip Saturday against the Los Angeles Clippers. Amare Stoudemire scored 28 points and Shawn Marion recorded his 12th double-double with 21 points and 18 rebounds for the Suns (13-3), who have been handed two of their three losses this season at home.

SUNS VS. TRAILBLAZERS
Rose Garden, Portland, 6:00 p.m., PST

TV, radio: FSAZ; KTAR 620
Records: Suns, 13-3; Trailblazers, 8-7

KEY MATCHUP: SUNS FRONTLINE VS. BLAZERS FRONTLINE
The matchupes couldn't be any better with the athleticism and scoring on both teams. Randolph is starting at center for the Trailblazers and the only way Cheeks could make everyone happy was by putting Rahim at his natural position, power forward, and Randolph at center. Marion will matchup against Shareef Abdur-Rahim very well. Richardson will have to contain the athletic Darius Miles. The two big men in Stoudemire and Randolph will be interesting just to see how well both players hold up.

INSIDE THE SUNS
The Suns were snapped of their 8 game winning streak after losing to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday in a 105-102 affair. Expect the Suns to come out strong in tonight's game to get an early lead on the Blazers. Phoenix are 1-1 in the month of December and if they want to continue what they did in November, the ywill have to start winning tonight.

INSIDE THE TRAIBLAZERS
The Portland Traiblazers (8-7) have the 8th seed in the Western Conference playoff race as of now, only a 1/2 game behind the Nuggets for the 7th seed and are 1/2 game ahead of the Rockets and Grizzlies. The Blazers are 5-5 in their last 10 games.

Steve Nash Huge Night Lifted the Suns
With the great performance by Nash, the Suns rise once again

Trailblazers-107
Suns-115


Richardson drawing contact on Randolph

PORTLAND, Oregon (AP) -- Steve Nash breakout game kept the Phoenix Suns from a losing streak. Nash made a team-high six 3-pointers en route to scoring a season-high 37 points, just one point shy of his career-high, as the Suns improved to 8-1 on the road with a 115-107 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers. The Pacific Division-leading Suns improved to 14-3, just behind San Antonio, who are tied for the best record in the league at 15-3. After winning eight consecutive games, Phoenix lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, 105-102.

"It's big for us to come out and get this tonight," Richardson said. "Anytime a big winning streak is stopped, it's important to get another going." With the Suns trailing, 18-16, midway through the first quarter, Nash keyed a 24-4 run with five baskets from the arc to help Phoenix take a 40-22 lead into the 2nd quarter.. Nash scored 17 points in the period. "I just kept shooting and just kept making baskets," Nash said. "I'm just glad that it happened on a night that we won. Usually I’m the player-maker on the team, but tonight my teammates looked for me more to shoot.” "He was smoking hot tonight," Suns coach Mike D'Antoni said. "He definitely had some heat checks out there."

Richardson added 14 points in the third quarter, which teammate Joe Johnson ended with a 3-pointer from the corner as time expired to open a 89-70 advantage. Portland was only able to get in single digits in the final minutes of the game by sending Phoenix to the foul line and scoring baskets. The 30-year-old Nash made 12-of-22 shots overall, missing just four shots from 3-point range, and made all eight of his free-throw attempts in his best offensive game since signing with the Suns as a free agent this past offseason. "Any player waits for a night like this, where the rim seems like a hula-hoop to them and everything keeps going in," Nash added.

"Nash went absolutely bananas," said Suns forward Shawn Marion, who added 11 points and 12 rebounds. "He kept it going, so we were going to keep finding him. He deserved to have a nigh like this as much as he loves to pass the ball. What more can you ask?" "During the course of a game you try and spread it around," said Suns guard Steve Nash, who also had 9 assists. "But when a guy gets going like that, you just want to feed him and that’s what my teammates did tonight." Portland's Zach Randolph collected 18 points and 17 rebounds. "I think it's time for a change," Randolph said. "Starting lineup, personnel, I don't know. I know we got to go to practice and work on a lot of things." Phoenix didn't win its eighth road game last year until March 15 at Houston. "Sometimes when you're on the road it takes a little more pressure off of you," Marion said. "I think that maybe a reason we are playing so well away from home right now."

Amazing recap... it's good to have this dynasty back... keep it up

thanks, im still trying to get my other updates ready, since i had played these games, i couldnt resist to do an update

New Magazine and Article Posted on Page 1

For those of you who may have 56K and don't want to go through all the loading of pics and etc., I will also post the article on this page.


Dan Bickley
The Arizona Republic
Dec. 6, 2004

Like the NBA, manhood came early for Amaré Stoudemire. Look at him now, kissing the net with his shots, wrecking the rims with his dunks, saying his prayers before bed. "That's every night," Stoudemire said. "It's mandatory." A mother would be proud.

Stoudemire, like the Suns, is off to a brilliant start in 2004-05. He is averaging a career best 20.8ppg and 10.4rpg on a team that has four players averaging 20+ points. Suddenly, Larry Brown owes the country an explanation as to why Stoudemire wasn't good enough to play during the Olympics. But Stoudemire's time on the bench is exactly the point. In the Association, players who receive such snubs are taught to mock the system and make funny faces at the coach. No one noticed Stoudemire's Olympic ordeal because he never said a word. He practiced, listened and learned. He paid attention, made the most of it. He decided he would make his own little statement when the NBA resumed its competition, and now there are tire tracks across the league.

That's proof that Stoudemire has a chance to be one of the greatest power forwards to play the game. "Any kind of life experience enriches him, whether it's learning from Tim Duncan, being humiliated a little bit, not playing, having to bite your tongue, follow rules and do everything they say," Suns coach Mike D'Antoni said. "But (Team USA officials) all said Amaré was great, and I think that proved his character." Stoudemire, 22, is already an anomaly. He is the rare athlete whose words, or lack of them, actually speak louder than his actions. He says he wants to "master the game." He calls himself "the franchise" with no fear, no inflection and zero showmanship, as if his own domination were simply mandatory. "Right now, he's playing well, as good as anybody in the league," D'Antoni said. "Offensively, teams haven't found an answer for him yet."

Frequently, Stoudemire's upbringing is painted in negative terms. Stoudemire's dad died when he was 12. His mom was in and out of prison, and to this day, those heavily invested in Stoudemire's future fear his mother's proximity, view her as a potential career saboteur. But somewhere along the way, the ragged upbringing gave Stoudemire his ticket to greatness. For all the scar tissue, some positive force helped carry him down this path. "The things that I have been through have helped me stay motivated, stay focused," Stoudemire said. "You can't ask for anything more." Yes, it will be something if this man-child keeps growing, eluding all the traps, keeping his grip and focus. He will fly high. The comparison D'Antoni drew Thursday was to the legendary Connie Hawkins. Stoudemire took it as a compliment, but he has a problem with that sort of thing. "I'm Amaré Stoudemire and I'm the future," he said. "There's not really a comparison to me."

PHOENIX, Arizona (AP) -- Amare Stoudemire and Shawn Marion felt it would only be a matter of time before the Phoenix Suns would overtake the Golden State Warriors. Stoudemire and Marion both posted double-doubles and helped spark a 15-0 2nd-quarter run to lead the Suns to a 113-94 victory over the Warriors. "We were struggling in the first quarter," Suns coach Mike D’Antoni said. "The crowd was not into it. We didn't get them into it. It was just one of those games that looked like a train wreck running off the tracks. But we buckled down." Phoenix has won 11 of 12 and tied the second-best start in franchise history at 15-3. The 1980-81 squad got off to a 17-3 start.

Stoudemire had 26 points and 10 rebounds and Marion had 22 and 11 rebounds for another double-double. "I think it was the back-to-back games and Phoenix is a run-and-gun team," Warriors guard Jason Richardson said. "They got a point guard like Steve Nash who can push the ball, and he struggled tonight. Barbosa pretty much ran us out the gym in this game." Leandro Barbosa scored a season-high 19 points and Joe Johnson along with Quentin Richardson added 13 points apiece for Phoenix, which has won 17 of the last 19 meetings at home. Barbosa was the key to tonight’s game as Nash struggled from the field shooting 3-9 and scoring 8 points. "They came out hungry," Stoudemire said. "We had hoped they would wear down which they did. We hung in there and played tenacious defense and crashed the boards."

Richardson scored 16 of his team-high 24 points in the opening quarter, while Speedy Claxton had season-highs with 22 points and 8 assists for Golden State, which fell to 2-16 for the season. "This was our fourth game in five nights and Barbosa knew it was and kept trying to push the ball," Warriors coach Mike Montgomery said. "The shots we were getting were the same shots we got early in the game, but they stopped going in. I'm sure the pace took its toll."
