With zero defense and Amare laying the proverbial egg each night all the while proclaiming to be an elite NBA player I have little doubt this team is on route to a first round exit if even a playoff birth.

Apparently the last time the Nets beat the Suns at home was in '93 in what I would call an anomalous beatdown. That season the Suns went to the finals. Hence this team has some of the makings of a great Suns team.

Don't make me go all Andrew on all the Amare bashing. He is not the greatest NBA player ever, or playing in the NBA now, or on this team. But he doesn't suck. He was first-team All NBA after micro surgery playing the way he does. Just because he says he wants to improve other areas of his game but is obviously not there yet..............Would you tell a successful artist who says they want to be a master their paintings suck constantly while they are working on it?

Probably yes, right? Why do I care what you write?

I don't. Hahahahaha Amare lays eggs every night. Goood one. Gets stupid technicals too. That dismissive arm move he does when he gets called for something that he doesn't agree with, gets him a technical just about every time. What a *******. Hey AAAAAMMMAAAARRRREEEEE you suck. :eek:

There now who is the *******.:moon: Thank you. I want to be the greatest.

While I am on a roll here. Amare is also a cheap, low tipper. I read that somewhere so I will just pass that on. If I made millions I would give everyone I come into contact with more than their job pays because damn it, I have it and they feel they deserve it from me.

Wow I feel so good now. I feel almost superior to Mr. Stoudemire. :doofus:

Mods don't give me a technical I was just kidding.:nono:

Andrew defends Shaq when someone puts him down.

It will be tight, unless there are some injuries to rotation players on other teams. the west is very good with portland, houston, and now denver improved. the spurs will likely be back when manu returns, the suns cant beat the hornets, jazz or lakers. I think it will be between the suns and mavs for the 8th seed.

One 2-3 week injury to shaq or hill and the suns could easily miss the playoffs.

I criticize the Mavs but I don't like the Suns chances if it comes down to the Suns beating out the Mavs for 8th spot. If nothing else Cuban will do every thing he can to get some more help for his team... not that he is any good at it. :D

The Mavs trading Devin Harris still blows my mind.

Under Porters system so far they could easily miss the playoffs if NO ONE gets hurt. Thay are not playing to the players strengths and that all falls on the coach! I don't care what Kerr wants because he is a terrible GM. This team is not equiped to win slow half court basketball games that requires defense to be played. Why this team is being ran right now like it is Shaqs team is beyond me, someone forgot to tell Porter this is not Shaq of 2000 its now 8 years later and he is not the same dominant force. Why he continues to try and pound it to Shaq over and over is ridiculous. Yeah good idea lets make the old guy the central point of our offense knowing he will miss many games this season! Porter is not looking real bright right now.

Only thing good about this season so far is that it's gotten me much closer to liking football than ever. *yawn*
