^^We can now officially call the trade a BUST kids :)

Damn what a huge gamble on "The BIG CACTUS"

Suns really went down since Duncan hit that trey, things started blurry since....


Well thats the NBA, The Suns and Mavs, the powerhouses along SAS, are now replaced with NOH and LAL respectively,

The good times....

Whats wrong with the distribution of powerhouses? It gets boring if the same team always wins. Personally glad to see the Suns and Mav's having to reevaluate. I wanna see some new teams in the playoffs and young blood.

the suns may not have got out of round one but i wont put that on shaq, the suns, with shaq, still should have won this series. if the suns dont blow huge leads in games 1 and 2 they have control over the series. they would have gone back home with a 2-0 lead.


as for the mavs, well that trade was a complete disaster and really kinda shows how overrated kid is (was?)

More like Avery Johnson's poor coaching of Jason Kidd.

They should get a good defensive coach to teach Stoudemire how to defend.
He show no defense against the Spurs. His 6 10, his athletic. There is no reason he can't be a good defensive player.

My advice for Phoenix: Start rebuilding, soon Nash, Hill and Shaq will retire. Start thinking in the future.

I'm still skeptical. Even if his firing is imminent, the denial isn't exactly a ringing endorsement either, especially if Kerr and co are comfortable with him exploring other coaching opportunities.

Nothing Avery Johnson could have done would've turned Jason Kidd into a good shooter who got offensive rebounds and went to the free throw line.

the suns should trade thier entire starting lineup to houston or someone else like that so they can finally beat the spurs. use the old boston mentality(baseball), so long as they dont win then we win
