pau to lakers... pau kwame odom kobe and fisher, pretty good starting line up and you add a complete bench of farmar walton turiaf and a few others, you guys urself a contender
The starters for the west all stars... WHAT THE FUCK! Don't get me wrong... A.I. and melo are deserving of a starting position. BUT Paul and Nash deserve it more.... But hey... It's not like averaging a double-double is hard or anything..... Damn fans.... <_<
Who doesn't get owned by Kobe. But since you mentioned raps and kobe in the same sentence. I gotta bring this old gem back up lol. [youtube]FeXZY4eVLlo[/youtube]
Man....thats the one game which i remembered raptor fans turning their TV back on after learning the raptors were down 10+ in the 4th AND rooting for the opposing team. It kinda sucks for any fan to have history made AGAINST your team but that was a once in a lifetime performance. An L just to see that....lol, 81
it doesn't look like kobe will need to do that again with gasol coming to town. i won't be surprised to see the lakers dominate the western conference. odom+bryant+bynum+gasol.... they also have a solid bench and good rotation... the dumb warriors got webber instead to paying attention to gasol. damn. lol
chris webber used to be mad nice when he was with the kings. But ever since the trade to sixers...... i dont like hoggers.....
shaq for marion?!??! WHAT ON EARTH IS KERR THINKING, TOO MUCH SUPERBOWL IN ARIZONA EFFECTED HIS BASKETBALL COMMON SENSE.. tiem to go back to broadcasting.. at least now the top 3 teams are no longer included with the suns =D, onel ess team for warriors to beat :3
it's not a completely stupid deal... by moving Marion, ur moving an unhappy player, trading someone who looks to be opting out anyways so u atleast get some value, and potentially getting cap relief if Shaq were to retire b4 his contract's up... u would have a legit defensive power in a team that has only Raja Bell as it's sole defensively capable player... and u could move Amare back to the forward position... u could then rotate the formations better as now u would have another player capable of playing center... i mean comon ur other guy is skinner? pssh... u also give Diaw and possibly Barbosa more minutes cuz u can also rotate Raja into a forward position if necessary... ur only real problem is Phoenix is gonna need one hell of an offseason cuz Hill and Shaq are getting over the hill -.-; and the west isn't about the top 3 teams nemore... there's a lot of powerful teams out here now... there's like 10 teams in good contention... and Sactown being a long shot... a real long shot -.-;... and next year could be even better... the T'Wolves are starting to get it going... Al Jefferson is a freaking beast... and the Clippers will have healthy players next year...
Shaq for Marion.... Nice... Only thing is. Shaq is basically a broken down old man that doesn't suit the style of play that D'Antoni has set up for his team. And BTW Marion is a bitch. A big big big bitch.
AHHH i hate Marion so much now. He's such a jackass. Maybe Shaq will play good with the Suns... Although it's not likely.
Shaq will not play too many minutes till the end of the season and the playoffs. But now I seriously think that they have a chance at getting the championship.
that's for sure. besides, how long will shaq be able to run with the rest of the team on the fast break.....even if marion isn't cool, at least he's much more versatile player. these trades seem to be a bit rushed and desperate. almost as bad as the warriors picking up webber.
Exactly. Shaq doesn't suit the fast paced game that the Suns play. But I guess we'll all just have to wait an see...
u guys gotta stop thinking about the fast pace game... the Suns can't beat a team like SA with fast pace breaks all game... and when they do switch to the fast pace game for a team like the Warriors, put in a smaller team... the Suns can still do that without Marion... Nash,Bell,Barbosa,Diaw,Amare... and u still got Grant Hill, he's old but can still score... i mean comon they still put up 100+ pts without Marion tonight... The Warriors are a fun team to watch... but they NEEDED another big man and they found Webber... simple as... Biedrins can only play so many minutes and I personally don't think Harrington's any good at all... he's just a streaky shooter that's it...
I know they still got enough players to score, and I understand why they traded Marion. I just hate the fact that they opted for Shaq. It's just a bad deal IMO. Shaq is not worth Marion. I just wished they would've looked for a slightly better deal.
