Looks like the Suns couldnt handle Arenas either at home. Makes me feel better for our loss last week

Just about as high scoring game as us too...anyways, go wizards! only 1 game behind suns now

Phoenix probably have the best offense in the league but their defense is shabby to say the least, this is why they score alot but also lose alot of points.

But who cares, Arenas paying back the Lakers for the 60 he dropped on us by helping the Wizards beat Phoenix, now Areanas is back in my good books

Gil is amazing. I hope he finally gets to be a big-time star cos he's not ref-enabled like others...

The Suns were at home. It was also their first loss against an Eastern team. They are still 9-1 against the East, but 9-6 against the West. The odd thing about this time of year is home teams tend to be less focused, because they are home with their families. Road teams tend to win, because they are on the road, so they can't do family things. It actually works in the Lakers favor. You can look for more upsets in general around the NBA.

These types of games between teams like the Suns and Wiz are fun to watch but then you look at the boxscore and think, "damn" -- giving up 141 points? How ugly.

I'm becoming a huge Arenas fan. He's my favorite non-Laker in the league. I really appreciated his class comments after the 60-point game, and that's great payback beating the Suns tonight. Plus, he went to my high school! (Grant High in Van Nuys, California).

I love watching Butler take over in the OT. It was also nice to see Gilbert hang 54 on the Suns without going to the line 20+ times.

To the Suns losing all I can say is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

He was ref-enabled on that and-one at the end of regulation to send it to OT.

That wasn't a foul on Marion...not even close....

But the Suns lose, and I'm happy.

Gotta agree markjay. Arenas is awesome just as long as he isn't playing the Lake show.

These games, IMO, are why stats in the 80s are so overrated. Imagine an era where the Suns is the 2nd slowest team. Talk about stats galore.

Gil scores about 30ppg. When he's hitting, they can beat anyone.
