    I go with the offense. Better scoring sparked the defense.

    Defense. Hands down. We held the Suns to 87 points, their lowest output of the season. Defense wins championships and the defense allowed us to get out an run to 17 fast break points. Also, by playing great defense, it takes a little pressure off the offense to make every shot down because you have the confidence to be able to stop them on the other end of the court. The D forced 6 turnovers from Nash and only 4 fast break points, totally taking them out of their rhythm. The teamwork on offense was good with 25+ assists, but we missed 13 straight shots in the 4th quarter, not going to cut it at all and it was the D that allowed us to keep our lead in the 4th while we were cold.

    That is true about our defense, but if we can't put the ball in the basket the Suns can run and gun off our misses. In fact that is what they were hoping for. If we had played there game of run and gun they would have spanked us.

    Defense. We played good physical defense that lead us to 17 fast break points, forcing turnovers, and holding them to a low scoring game.

    It was the Defense. Phx only had 4 fast break points. We can really punish them when we hold them under 100 pts. Good defense leads to offense.

    Defence - it sounds simple but not every team and players have possibilities to play that.
    Let's go and win next game. Suns are good but I think we have chance to win. Go Blazers !!!
