More and more NBA arenas are removing press seats located on the floor in order to accomodate high-profile and high-priced floor seats, similar to what has been seen at Lakers games for many years. Al McCoy is the longtime voice of the Suns and calls the change a 'tragedy,' as it disrupts one of the NBA's best marketing tools.
"It's embarrassing that they have seen fit to prevent us in a majority of arenas from doing a professional job," said McCoy, who plans to write Commissioner David Stern. "We lose communication with coaches, players and referees. If we were eating popcorn and drinking beer it'd be great, but we can't do our job adequately."

Leandro Barbosa began running on his injured left ankle on Sunday. He missed his second consecutive game and is expected to miss one more, a Wednesday match-up against Houston.
"It was cool," Barbosa said. "Hopefully, I can do something more (today). I don't like to be sitting down and watching my guys play. It's a pain, but not like when I hurt it."

One game after going scoreless, Amare Stoudemire came out with a vengeance against the New Jersey Nets. He scored 25 points to go with 10 boards and seven blocked shots.
"I just played off my teammates," Stoudemire said. "Whatever the offense brought the defense on my side, I just took what was there."
