The Suns raced out to an 18-point lead at the end of the first period before holding on for a 106-98 home victory over the Clippers on Friday. The win marks their third straight, putting Phoenix seven games above .500 for the first time this season. Although the game never seemed in doubt and teetered on becoming a blowout, the Suns were unable to slam the door shut on the struggling Clippers, bringing a slight feeling of dissatisfaction to Suns Head Coach Terry Porter.
