Coach Nate's pre-game comments are exactly right. If Portland wants to beat this exciting Phoenix Suns team in the Rose Garden, they have to play their style of basketball and stop the Suns' fastbreak, up-tempo offense...

The Suns come into tonight's match-up on a three-game winning streak, winning their last game against the New Jersey Nets in Phoenix. The Suns are led by former MVP Steve Nash, Shawn Marion and Amare Stoudemire who has the tough task tonight of defending Zach Randolph.

If Portland can slow down the Phoenix offense and move the ball to help create open shots on the offensive end, the fans at the Rose Garden have a great chance to leave the game with a big victory. Look for big games from Zach Randolph, Jarrett Jack and Travis Outlaw who all have enormous match-ups on both ends of the floor.

What is Joel's status? I have to be honest, I almost don't want to watch any more games until Joel AND Brandon are back -- it's just too disappointing to get my hopes up. ):
