The Sixers were playing some high level basketball with one of the league's best teams in the Phoenix Suns. The first half was all Sixers as they raced out to a 66-54 lead at the break. The second half proved to be a different story as Amare Stoudemire and Steve Nash got more assertive and helped the Suns rally back to eventually beat the Sixers 119-115. Nash finished with a stellar performance notching 21 points and handing out an amazing 20 assist. Jason Richardson was lights out finishing with 29 points, hitting 6-8 from downtown. Jared Dudley off the bench also was feeling it from beyond as he went 4-5 for three finishing with 18 points to really boost the bench production.

For the Sixers, Andre Iguodala had a good night as he scored 24 points and grabbed 9 rebounds. Marreese Speights gave the Sixers instant offense off the bench as he recorded 20 points and grabbed 8 rebounds. Jrue Holiday looked like a more polished player as he had his best game as a rookie providing good defense and hustle. Holiday finished with 8 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assist as a nice spark off the bench. Suddenly the Sixers are reeling and need to get back to .500. The Sixers played hard and really gave the Suns a great test. The Sixers next opponent will be the New Jersey Nets at New Jersey on Wednesday night. Game time will start at 7:30 PM EST.
