It seems like the scoring duties are being passed to Steve Nash lately, as he scored a season-high 37 points to help the Suns on their victory to the Bucks 114-105.
He also had 35 against Milwaukee in their previous match for another Suns victory 122-114 on Jan. 12.
"It's not really my thing, I would much rather get everyone involved, but it was one of those tough nights." said Nash.
Nash, who feels more comfortable passing the ball and leaving the scoring duties to his team mates, felt that the Bucks would take on Amare Stoudemire and decided to switch his normal role a little bit. But Milwaukee had little success in stopping the Suns leading scorer who is averaging 22 points per game and allow him to finished the game with 19, 10 of those scored on the fourth. Grant Hill who was coming back from two weeks and 7 games of no action due to an appendectomy, scored only 8 points and serve 3 assists and Raja Bell had a regular night with 19 points, 8 of those on the 4th.
For the Bucks, Michael Redd ended with 28 points, while team mate Andrew Bogut had 19 and 13 rebounds and Bobby Simmons finished with 15.
The Suns have won 4 in a row since their defeat to the Clippers on Tuesday and with this victory, Phoenix became the first Western Conference team to accumulate 30 wins.

Why is the Suns are always late to the party. They should have been on top of the NBA 3 years ago. With their roster of run-away talent, who would have ever believed that they are still struggling to get there.
