Thanks for the great season Suns!

It was fun watching this team, I hope they don't blow them up in a knee jerk reaction

 

[SirStefan32]

Indeed! It was a great season. Who know what would have happened if Amare and Boris didn't get suspended. Hopefully they can add some depth during the off-season.

 

[Chaplin]

Well, Marion's trade value isn't being helped in this game.

Proud Suns fan

No, they didn't win the championship this year, which is the ultimate goal, but it'll be hard for any team to provide their fans a more exciting season! Good job, guys.

Marion's GOTTA go. The only untradeables, IMO, are Nash, Amare and Barbosa. Everyone else can be had in some combination that makes us better. I almost want Bell as an untradeable, but he can be had in the right deal. I am sick, sick, SICK of Marion and when I'm not sick of him, I am tired of him. I am sick and tired of Marion....

*Monster-In-Law referrence*

 

[Ryanwb]

I am fairly positive this is the last time that Nash, Marion and Stoudemire see the court on the same team. Total shame.... Diaw's contract f'ed this team

Yeah, maybe we can get Raef LaFrentz for him!

 

[Arctic]

Wow. Games not over yet guys. Way to believe in the team.

 

[Ryanwb]

Another prediction.... Bruce Bowen doesn't make 1st team defense again. The gig is up

Boris will be alright once Marion is gone.

Dude, I went to my first Suns game in 1982, I'm at peace with history here

Sorry I'll miss the hanging of the 61 win banner next year.

There's enough "Pacific Division" banners to fill out the rafters for now

This has not been a great season

Yet another playoff failure for the Suns! The Suns had home court advantage throughout the playoffs, after the Mavericks lost, yet blew it. 39 years and counting, and no championships. It's looking more and more like the Suns are becoming the Chicago Cubs of basketball.

Support Suns forever!

Will take a lot for the Suns to reach Cub status.

Time to make changes

Two players were suspended - Diaw and Stoudemire. Their actions at the end of Game 4 resulted in their suspensions. Anyone who does something that results in their suspension during a playoff series, and that suspension results in the team losing the playoff series, should no longer be a part of the team.

The team needs to undergo dramatic changes during the offseason. If the Spurs can win four championships, why can't the Suns win a measly single championship?

Because San Antonio is the most disciplined team in the league, coached by the best coach in the laague (along with Jerry Sloan).

We don't need dramatic changes, we just need to have some kind of a rotation that involves more than 7 players.

We need to find a way to aliviate some pressure of the Nash, and we need another player or two who can play.

Honestly, they are the dirtiest team in the league and they get those ticky tack calls.... Right idea, wrong "D" word

Detroit is the dirtiest team in the league.

 

[Griffin]

We did not fail this season, nor in this series. Both teams are pretty evenly matched, and both teams won two games each. Even if you give them game 3, that is still only 3 wins. They would have not advanced without all the help they got. We didn't play well tonight, but what we had too overcome was too much, and we came up short. Unlike two years ago, this series proved nothing to me. As far as I'm concerned, this season gets an "incomplete".

I agree that they are dirty- no question about it. However, you can't deny that they are disciplined. Their stars are stars in big games, and their role-players are good role players in big games.

Everyone knows what they are supposed to be doing, and they do it.
When one guy can't get it going, they just go to somebody else. When Duncan can't score- Manu or Parker step up. When Nash and Amare can't score, Marion, Bell and Barbosa fold.
