The Suns streaked to their 11th straight victory, this time taking apart Orlando on the road. Phoenix has now won 13 of their last 14, and have added themselves to the clusterf logjam of powerful teams atop the Western Conference. Orlando played well in the first half, but the thing about the Suns is that they're going to keep scoring all night. So If you don't keep up with them (see: Orlando's 14 point 3rd quarter), you will eventually get run out of the building, which is what the Suns have been doing for the last 11 games.
The other thing that's helping the Suns win is the third "road alternate" jerseys. The team chose to only bring the alternate uni's on their five game road trip, all victories. After losing their first four games in purple, the team is now 7-0 this season when rocking the orange.
Players can be a little eccentric in their superstitions, but this one's mild and I don't think the team will be changing it any time soon. Now if the team just adds these sweet kicks to the equation, I don't think a title run would be out of the question.

Those shoes are NOT the business. Adidas did the Suns dirty on those.
A similar thing happened with the Orlando Magic last year. They were so good in their throwback home jerseys that they didn't want to stop wearing them. This was despite the fact that the league threatened to fine the team for wearing their throwback jersey's beyond their designated "hardwood classics" nights.
I'll trade you several Philly #3s for a good Chuck Cooper throwback.
Miss Gossip, I totally agree, but I had to find some way to report on those ridiculous shoes that are (incidentally) available for all 30 teams.
Most of the kicks are horrrible... terrrible.

I might rock the Raps just because of Garbage-osa!
Oh I know, trust -- I've been peeping all 30. But a few of them are aight. Like the Knicks are kinda tight, and the Spurs are hot. But the Suns ones are just not cute.
Though the Bucks are the worst ones: the hunting enthusiast Santa's elf.
