Phoenix Suns vs Los Angeles Lakers

Phoenix (8-1) at Los Angeles (6-1)

Off to their best start in 29 seasons, the Phoenix Suns are thriving in their up-tempo style.

The Los Angeles Lakers aren’t surprised at all.

The Pacific Division-leading Suns look to win their fifth straight game Thursday night, when they’ll face the defending champion Lakers for the first time this season.

Back home following a 4-1 eastern trip, Phoenix (8-1) routed New Orleans 124-104 on Wednesday. Amare Stoudemire had 21 points, Grant Hill(notes) added 18 and six other Suns scored in double figures as Phoenix set a season high in points while matching Boston with the league’s best record.

After missing the playoffs last season for the first time since 2004, the Suns are off to their best start since opening 11-1 in 1980-81. Phoenix has scored 100 or more in each of its first nine games for the first time since 1990-91.

“It was a great win for us,” coach Alvin Gentry said. “I thought we played as well as we could in the first half. Offensively, we did a good job of staying in attack mode.”

Since Gentry took over for the final 31 games last season for the fired Terry Porter, who tried to implement a slowed-down approach with the Suns, Phoenix has scored 98 or more in 39 of 40 contests.

Cleveland Cavaliers vs Miami Heat

Cleveland (5-3) at Miami (6-1)

In the ongoing drama surrounding next summer’s free-agent class, rumors have swirled of LeBron James(notes) and Dwyane Wade(notes), who have been teammates in All-Star games and the Olympics and are friends off the court, teaming up to form a mega-tandem.

For the time being, James is focused on winning with the Cleveland Cavaliers while Wade is trying to do the same with the Miami Heat.

With his team starting to find its rhythm after a sluggish start, James and the Cavaliers seek their sixth victory in seven games Thursday night when they visit Wade and a Heat team trying to open 7-1 for the first time in franchise history.

In nearly every arena James visits, the reigning league MVP has been bombarded with questions of potentially opting out of his contract at the end of this season and becoming a free agent.

Frustrated by the repeated questions about his future, James said prior to Wednesday’s 102-93 win in Orlando he would no longer talk about the subject again this season.
