NBA - NY Knicks v Phoenix Suns

The Phoenix Suns are chasing their 5th straight win and 3rd straight on the road as they head into Madison Square Garden to take on their former mentor on Mike D'Antoni.

This game will be pretty exciting for the neutrals as both teams are going to play the quick offense with the pick and roll, pick and pop, as well as the three point shot, which makes things very interesting especially since neither team has faced a team like themselves in the first half of the season.

The more we praise Steve Nash this season, the more he seems to accomplish every time that he has the ball in his hand. Whether its scoring, passing or even leading this Suns team, Nash has been the brain child in their resurgence along with side kick Stoudemire.

The Knicks don't care if they play badly, D'Antoni has a license to fail for last year and this as the Knicks look towards the FA Class of 2010. But despite having 5 straight losses now, the team looks much like the Suns 4 years ago. They run the offense, take the good 3 point shot, as well as get the big man involved down low.

The key to this game is which team can get a streaky hand of shooting 3's as well as defense. Suns have strengthened both these aspects of their game since the off-season and will be looking for another victory on the road to boost their credentials as Championship contenders.
