    Memorable Run Comes to an End
    The Suns came up short in Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals, falling 102-93 to the Mavericks on Saturday night. Althought the loss was disappointing, the season was an incredible one that players and fans won't soon forget. Phoenix won 54 games and a second Pacific Division Championship, and came within two wins of the NBA Finals, despite the loss of All-Star forward Amare Stoudemire to knee surgery.
