Amare Stoudemire scored 17 and pulled down nine rebounds, and Steve Nash had 16 points and seven assists for the Suns, who won for the first time in three games and ran their winning streak over the Trail Blazers to 11 games.

Brandon Roy had a game-high 26 points, Steve Blake scored 22 and added five assists, and LaMarcus Aldridge scored 14 for the Blazers, who lost for just the second time in their last five games.

Portland cut the Phoenix lead to 49-47 early in the third quarter and went up 56-54 halfway through the period but the Suns -- sparked by a pair of three-pointers by Raja Bell -- went on a 15-3 tear, ran up a 69-59 lead, and took a 10-point advantage into the fourth period.

Phoenix went up by as many as 15, but the Blazers fought back to with four after a 9-0 run -- only to fall back again when the Suns put together a 12-4 run to take control the rest of the way.
