NBA News - Manu's Scores 22 But Suns Still Shine

Detroit Pistons 116 Chicago Bulls 109

The Bulls suffered their second consecutive defeat and this time it is again to another Eastern Conference contender. Certainly this result will push them back in 10th place in the standing. Andres NOCIONI had a low performance tonight posting 10 points, 1 rebound & 2 steals.

Toronto Raptors 114 Seattle Supersonics 106

A victory from what I feel must credited to the whole team for each and everyone’s effort, especially from the likes Rasho NESTEROVIC.

The bench was not disappointing as well as Carlos DELFINO had 15 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists & 1 steal to his credit.

Phoenix Suns 94 San Antonio Spurs 87

I just what is it going to be like when these two will meet at the play offs. I do believe that today it has to be the rivalry between these two that is the best in the league.

Among the most notable attendees of the afternoon was Muhammad ALI (he received a standing ovation when introduced to the crowd) and Republican presidential candidate John McCAIN with his wife.

Again it was nothing but pure intense and drama all the way only this time, Spurs have crumble despite having a 85-80 lead with only 5:12 left to play.

Most certainly the night was a big one for a big men, someone it the mould of Shaq O’NEAL. Shaq was brought to help the Suns to win game like these.

“O’NEAL does change things greatly for the opposition,” Manu GINOBILI said. “It’s a big body to bother us every time we penetrate.”

Manu came from the bench to post a team high performance 22 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists & 1 steal. While Fabricio OBERTO was on the bench, only manages to post 4 points & 5 rebounds to his credit.
