thrity-nine and thirteen

Back on Wednesday, February 14 (Valentine's Day), the Suns (39 - 13) faced the Seattle Supersonics (20 - 32). The Suns missed Steve Nash, Boris Diaw, and Kurt Thomas, all still sidelined because of injuries. The Suns lost by more points they they've lost by all season long, and that by far. The final score was 114 - 90, Sonics over Suns. The Suns go into the All-Star break without hitting 40 wins, while the Dallas Mavericks are now up to 44 - 9, with the best record bar four and a half games in the NBA. The Suns have now lost their last 3, while the Mavericks have won their last 9 and the Jazz their last 6 (who've now taken the third highest record over San Antonio). The Suns will take on a 25 - 28 Clippers team in LA next Tuesday at 7:30 AZ time. GO SUNS! Win number forty on the way!
