The Perpetual NBA Thread

Where would Jalen fit better? Suns or Heat? Kung sa Heat, they already have Posey and Walker playing the 3. Hmmm baka sa Suns mas fit sya....

parehong MAINIT ang pinagpipilian ni JR

natuluyan na pala na injured ang tinamaan na ilong ni Thomas (Bulls)

[kimpOy]

Jalen Rose will suit up for the Phoenix Suns

[cyrusblutrooper]

may NBA program pa ba ang ESPN at STAR SPORTS parang ala silang schedules ah?

[kimpOy]

nasa solar sports na (BTV)

[theveed]

I'm officially off the Phoenix bandwagon... I hate what Amare is doing to the Suns and I despise signing a disgruntled, slow guard grrr.

[kimpOy]

patience sir theveed, meanwhile sakay muna tayo sa Golden State Bandwagon...

[Eismann]

I am joining the Portland/Orlando "run for the playoffs" bandwagon....

theveed: don't talk about Amare that way, you'll see, he will be a pleasant surprise before the end of Nov. Maybe part of the reason why Jalen was taken is to slow things down and for Amare to be much more effective. Consequently it will be faster for him to ease his way towards the starting C position. And when that happens, Suns will have better match ups with the Spurs, Heat or Pistons. IMO, Boris Diaw should be relegated to the bench when Amare's knees are better. He's clearly out of shape.

[theveed]

I'll continue to talk smack against Amare dude, if there's one thing that made me love Phoenix the past 2 years is how Nash made everybody run... Amare just killed that, his huge contract is a liability for sitting him down, yet he still thinks he's the X factor of the Suns, he's not MARION and NASH is.. grrr... A knee can't get better by playing it more, that's the whole point of microfracture's long recovery.

I could care less about his fantasy numbers, I want the Suns to reach the finals.

[Eismann]

theveed: this is not about fantasy numbers 'tsong. Don't you think D'Antoni and his staff did not learn ther lessons last spring? They need Amare to make it to the finals, speed did not take them there, did it? Nash and Marion certainly needs his power play to match up down low and at some point this season, to create more mismatches for other western powers like Mavs or Spurs.

[ILuvDetailing]

Amare was simply spectacular during the 2004 playoffs, virtually scoring at will, he's pushing himself to get back to that form, unfortunately he isn't on that level yet and he's killing the Sun's tempo, when the ball gets to his hands it stops moving, he either shoots a jumper or forces a shot inside.

A side note:
Barbosa replaced Boris Diaw in the starting lineup, Boris came in out of shape, which also affected his play, am sure his fantasy owners are going nuts for picking him up between the 3rd and 4th round. I believe he is a 5th or 6th round material

[Eismann]

I don't think they can win even the Pacific division that way playing speed ball. What kept them good to watch last year was Nash and Marion and the mismatches from Diaw's play and hustle, not to mention Barbosa's occasional explosions. Now they don't have Diaw's hustle and mismathces. The collective brains in their mngt learned that beating a team like Mavs, Spurs or Heat needs more than speed ball and hustle. They need to dominate inside also. Well, shooting lucky 3's barely got them to round 2 in the playoffs last year and maybe Jalen is the Tim Thomas guy this year.

the newspaper ads re NBA on RPN are silent on replays. rpn 9 sked at the website makes no mention of even showing an NBA game today.

help?

i think they're banking on the fact that amare is still young, and they're hoping that the recovery period is much shorter.

they need to improve their defense too

Amare has the more serious injury which required Microfracture surgery, Jordan had loose cartilage cleaned up.

hakim warrick and rudy gay are wrecking havoc sa interior defense ng detriot....
