it had everything manu was awseome as was marion it had the comeback then another comeback for overtime then the spurs just took control man that was one of the best games i've seen for a while probably since the the pacers smoked detroit (the brawl night) ;-)

 

[Mr Saab]

pistons smoking the pacers in the east finals 2004 was sweeter

Marion in the 3rd was on fire. 17 points, 3 pointers (he shoots 3s VERY weird) dunks..did it all.
Suns have zero bench and will be found out come May.

I missed that game, darn it, but I saw the Suns bounce back to beat the Nets tonight. Nash played great. The Suns are now off on an eastern road trip. I need to start thinking about going to the game in Toronto when the Suns come in a week or so.

 

[Mr Saab]

suns proved to me that they will NOT be coming out of the West when June rolls by

 

[CanadianSteve]

I agree they will have trouble with the Spurs, because of Duncan. But I love how the Suns are playing, and I think they can get to the western final and give the Spurs an exciting series.

 

[Mr Saab]

they are exciting...no question about it. But they have zero bench and that will kill them. They have made one trade for jimmy jackson, but i cant see that helping tooooo much.
Spurs and kings can match them and beat them when the playoffs roll by.

We'll see. ;-)

Even if they don't it has been a great season so far and something to build on. If they fire up from beyond the arc with Q and Nash and Stoudemire can stem Duncan they are a chance at beating the Spurs but with the way the season is going it would be great if we had Phoenix v Miami in the finals two franchises on the up. Great young kids in Wade and Stoudemire and there inspired signings O'Neal and Nash (MVP). That's the final I want Suns v Heat.

 

[Mr Saab]

it would be a great final, but the Suns dont play Defence....thats the killer.
They allowed the Jazz to score 120 odd today...120!!!!!
They can rely all they want on "we will outscore any team" theory but in the playoffs they will get murdered in a 7 game series with the spurs.
IF they get to June they will meet a Pistons or Heat team that will take them to skool.
Look at what the Pistons did to the Lakers in 04 Finals...the Lakers had ZERO offence because of the Pistons Defence

Again today against the Mavs they leaked in plenty. Still it's better than 12 months ago.
