The only thing im worried about is falling too far behind and possibly dropping out of the playoffs while they figure out how to make this work. Its only a matter of time before Nash gets it rolling though.

How will Nash fix their horrible defense?

Aren't the Suns giving up like 115 PPG since Shaq started playing? That team is going absolutely nowhere.

Suns weren't going anywhere before shaq their defense horrible, and i don't know if you can blame shaq for their lack of defense, even though that got worse with the trade you can't blame shaq for their defensive play.

Sure you can. Shaq can't defend the paint at all now. He's just a big... cactus.

Shaq opened up the lanes for amare his numbers are better then ever and it's their perimeter defense that is killing them. You think with marion they were contending for a title? Obviously not thats why they traded him and took a huge risk that is not paying off so far. I think it was a horrible trade myself he has 2 years at 20 million each remaining on his contract....... Kerr fucked up bad.

What about the fact that people can get into the lane at will, because Amare isn't a very good defender and people just draw fouls on Shaq... It's not just the perimeter defense, it's that Shaq doesn't fit their system AT ALL and the fact that he's not athletic anymore makes it even worse.

So why are you arguing if our conclusions are the same?

I didn't realize i was arguing i was just stating they were not a contender before or after shaq.

Dark is right, though. It's guards burning them right now not bigs. No perimeter resistance AT ALL. It was crazy seeing Louis Williams just destroying Nash in the 4th last night. And Iguadola made Bell and Hill look stupid :lol

By retiring? I bet he'd be a better coach than _Antoni though :lol

Check out the Warriors schedule, we got 6 back to backs. Our March 21st- end of the season schedule is going to be really tough: 10 out of 15 games against playoff teams, but it seems like we play up to our competition. Hopefully we can win tonight against Portland (we've been blown out by them twice) because I can see us going 3-1 on the road.
 
Anyone else irritated by the narrator guy on ABC? This chump's voice is not naturally deep and he's obviously forcing it. Sounds like a clown..

I don't see the same hate towards Spurs and Pistons.

Doesn't help that the Suns now have the twin towers of biggest ego around the league. Need some example? Check this out:

"I wouldn't say I need a mentor. I think I'm already a pretty good player. I think what he's saying is [that] he's going to be a positive influence on me. A mentor? Nah. I don't need a mentor at all."
 
Way to start off NBA Sunday ABC. Watching this is unbearable, and how does Hubie Brown still have a job commentating is beyond my understanding. and WTF at Cleveland playing Pavaroti during the halftime? No more Cleveland games...ABC is fucking up


ps. Damon Jones utter garbage.

:lol

It'd be awesome if Lebron moved to the west just like every other player after his contract is over.

edit: Maximus Jack Szerbiak? wtf. poor kid
 
What a play by Huges and Thomas. Larry actually looks decent when he's not just a spot-up shooter. It was kinda like Kobe and Odom. You need a big inside or a dominating PG to have guys like that play well together..
 
Why doesn't Mike Brown just tell the truth, "I'm not a very good coach, no one even listens to me anymore. LeBron does what he wants."
 
Uh-oh Mavs fans. Did ya'll see Cuban talk to JVG at the pre-game just now?
 
Gah! Why does ABC cut to interviews during crucial free throws in the fourth quarter!? We don't need that human interest shit when the game is on the line.

Well, Amare has gotten to where he is now by himself. Shitty childhood, blah blah, came back from the surgery and has excelled on all fronts (offensively). He can score in the paint easily, he has a great 15-18ft jumpshot, and is ace at freethrows. All this by himself, and now he's 25. Why the fuck does he need a mentor now? He did it all himself.
