Suns clinch third straight division title

3524.jpgThe Suns are one of my favorite teams and I believe that they deserved the division title. Since I like basketball and Nash plays the same position as me, I really like watching them play. Steve Nash is an inspirational player who is also a Canadian. After winning the last two MVP’s Nash has become my favorite player in the leauge. Phoenix has a tremendous work ethic and they deserve to win. The whole team never gives up. Even if they are dead tired at the end of the game they will still play hard and try to get the win.In the Suns career they have won six division titles. Three of which with All-Star Steve Nash. Also Nash, who is a 89 percent free throw shooter missed both of his free throws on the night.

For the third year in a row the Pheonix Suns have clinched another division title. After blowing out the Timberwolves 108-90 on Tuesday night they got to celebrate the win. Two time MVP Steve Nash led the way with 18 points and 11 assists. Kurt Thomas poured it on in the defensive end with 9 rebounds and 3 blocks. The third quarter put Minnesota out of reach with the Suns going on a 14-0 run at one point in the quarter. At the end of the third Phoenix was leading 84-67. The Suns are on fire winning their last two games by a total of 46 points.

“That means we’ve had a good regular season and we’ve positioned ourselves well for the playoffs,” Bell said, “but the ultimate goal is winning a championship. We understand we’ve got some work to do.”

Kevin Garnett led the Timberwolves with 30 points and 16 rebounds. This is Minnesota’s 11th straight road loss. Minnesota is currently on a five game road trip with two games left. The Timberwolves are starting to fade away from the final playoff spot in the Western Conference after battling hard for it all year.

“The panic button has been hit,” Garnett said. “We’ve got to win these last two bar none. I don’t know how to say it anymore. The urgency is there if we’re trying to make the playoffs.”
