But the Suns should be higher then where they are placed

A mixture of leadership and youth has done the trick. Fisher has solidified the 1 position and Kobe and Bynum and the youth infusion Expect us to be there no doubt.

Home or away?

There is only one way to keep our spot in the top five: winning.

As long as we're Top 5 going into next season (meaning we made at least the WCFs), I'll be satisfied with this season's outcome.

nba.com - 4th
espn.com - 4th
SI.com - 5th

Just keep the momentum ! Hopefully we'll keep the good work !

they might move up when they are playing better. that stat of 1-6 vs top 8 teams in the west should be pretty scary for suns fans

i'd rather not be enthusiastic. When we are high like the Celts/Cavs games we tend to lose. Although the Phoenix game was nice.

I wasn't pumped for Cleveland. We always lose there because the refs are a joke.

This is when everyone gets injured and we end up 8th in the West just in time for the playoffs. :banghead:

It's nice to see our team playing well, we definitely have a different team.

It's funny to see the two different rankings in espn, Hollinger's scoring-based ranking and Stein's...well, opinion-based ranking. Kinda embarrassing for Stein.

But getting ranked low by these pundits didn't help or hurt us in the past, and it won't help or hurt us now.

But it's nice to see people starting to ride our jocks. tee hee
