An Electric Shooting Exhibition

That's right boys and girls - - My Phoenix Suns are in the Western Conference Finals for the second year in a row! This year, without the injured Amare Stoudamire (which many believed would lead to a completely failed season), we have reached the same spot in the playoffs as we did last year. Two consecutive seven-game series against the teams from Los Angeles has battle-tested us and prepared us for the upstart Dallas Mavericks, the team that beat down the defending champ San Antonio Spurs in seven games as well.

We defeated the Clippers tonight 127-107 in an "Electric Shooting Exhibition" by us; broadcaster (and former NBA head coach) Doug Collins said that at the end of the game. We had three days off between games six and seven, and it seems that was all my boys needed to take it to the other team from Los Angeles. Bring on the Mavs!

This season is going to go down as a success regardless of how we fare in the next round (and the Finals if we can get there). Congratulations to the real MVP (the votes don't lie Kobe or LeBron fans) Steve Nash and the rest of the Phoenix Suns (oodles of DAP to Shawn Marion, Leandro Barbosa, Boris Diaw, Raja Bell, Tim Thomas, and James Jones for their amazing work in the series at one point or another) on their convincing semi-final victory!

GO SUNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Very Excited Fan (and finally, a little boastful),
