Suns beat the Nuggets 137-115

It looks like the talk that Phoenix general manager Steve Kerr had with his team took a real effect on their performance as The Suns almost broke the mark of 3 pointers in a single game imposed by Toronto in 2005, which was of 21, but they do matched a franchise record in a game dominated by Phoenix all along.

By the end of the third, Denver shorted the numbers to 101-90 but luck was not on the Nuggets side as Amare Stoudemire sank a 16-footer and Iverson missed two free throws cutting down their chances to sum up to equal the match.

Not even Allen Iverson could come up with enough points (ended with 32) to defeat a Suns team that came highly motivated against a Denver team that has played four games in five nights leaving them with a lack of energy that Phoenix appreciated and took advantage of.

"They got happy and they got cocky and they rubbed our faces in the game a little bit, it will be fun the next time we play them." Nuggets coach George Karl said

This was The Suns second-highest-scoring half of the season with 11-of-15 3s and Shawn Marion scored a season high 27 points and leaded The Suns to a final score of 137-115. "A good day at the office, I guess you could say," Marion said.

Now the Suns are receiving the Pacers at the US airways center and Steve Nash and Marion are ready to keep up with the good roll they are on.
