shaq wants to win 5 trophies no way, the suns can't win all the way... they'll fall when they meet the Utah Jazz maybe in the 1st round...

Well, being healthy is part of the game. Knowing the rules is a part of it, as well. They knew Stern would suspend their butts if they did that stunt that they did (Heat vs Knicks). Saying they wanted to help Nash was lame. It was clear that the intent was to confront Horry. And heck, after that wild-stunt-flop job Nash did, he stood right up and walked directly to Horry. If that was a hard foul as you guys proclaimed it was, I don't think he'd get up that quickly. Check out Al Horford's foul on TJ Ford. Now THAT's a hard foul. Yes, Horry did foul Nash but it was also a flop. A big stinkin' flop. Which unfortunately backfired on Nash's Suns.

u hit the target

but amare? he's always crying for hard fouls?

and whining won't make any team winning..

Let's all do hope that the Suns and Spurs match once again this season's playoffs so everything will be settled once and for all.

im looking forward for this too. offense vs. defense

@Silver_Surfer:

Try to do some back reading and you'll see why Phoenix lost to San Antonio. San Antonio maybe have beaten Phoenix every time they meet but that doesn't mean that they're unbeatable.

really? o come on... spurs don't have the superstars like steve nash, amare, barbosa, and many more scorers... but how can they win? of course it's their defense... suns are just at the wrong place at the wrong time... spurs just depend on duncan, parker, and manu... nothing else not like your phoenix who has all the scorers... but can't passed by Spurs...

You don't consider Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobili superstars? LOL. I wonder how good would the superstars be if these three guys aren't.

and whining won't make any team winning..

It doesn't but Amare makes a very good point: Refs, keep your eyes on Bruce Bowen, he'll have his next victim very soon.

only Tim Duncan among the Spurs were considered as superstar by the NBA. Tony & Manu are stars. not super.

Tony Parker is considered one for now. He just outdid Tim Duncan for the Finals MVP race. And his averages this season also shows.

Psychiatry is for those who are in mental and emotional disorders.

That's what I meant.

He wants to end his career having 5 rings and he'll win it this season with Phoenix, along with Steve Nash who really deserves one.

Dude, I can say that to at least a dozen other people who've worked their butt's off and yet still come short.

So you expect all hard fouls to end up in injuries?

Oh yeah. They almost always do.

San Antonio's series victories over Phoenix are not that convincing.

It's not just the Suns meng. Check out their victory margins against the other teams; it's never in the double digits. But ask every coach (if you can ) around the NBA and they'd still consider the SA Spurs as the team to beat; the benchmark so to speak. Why do you think Kerr got O'Neal? Coz he knows with the current roster, the Suns can't break the Spurs. Why do you think they were sooo elated over that win they got from the Spurs even after losing a couple of games and the fans beginning to complain about the trade? Answer? Coz the trade for O'Neal has always been about the Spurs. It really is that simple dude - the past lineup could never win against the Spurs. Now with O'Neal, they have a fighting chance. At least I'll give that to them.

So, what are you trying to imply?

Because of the Spurs? They did it because they know that it gives them a better chance against the West. Could you please post some links which says that Steve Kerr did it for the Spurs? Because as far as the West goes, there are a lot of good teams out there other than the Spurs who's got real good big men to deal with. The Lakers just acquired Pau Gasol and have Andrew Bynum, San Antonio's got Tim Duncan, Houston still have Yao Ming that time, and Carlos Boozer can be added to that list, so you can't say that the Suns did it for the Spurs. Steve Kerr knew that keeping a small line-up will no longer work for them this season, unlike the past ones. In fact, a complete line-up with Shawn Marion is good enough to challenge the Spurs. The Suns can go toe-to-toe with the Spurs.

The Suns win over the Spurs is just Steve Kerr's answer to you for calling him a *****.

So, what are you trying to imply?

Let me spell it out foh yah. It means you'd have to be a crazy Suns fan to still think that they are better than the Spurs - even after the evidence of games played between the two teams. Sorry but you cannot claim the Phoenix Nuns, er, I mean the Suns own the Spurs. You can try to claim that the Suns were cheated and all; but the bottomline is that the Suns will just remain whiners until they prove otherwise. They're so good at complaining and yet they could not get it done where it matters most - the court. Again you say Cheap Shot Rob and Bruce Lee Bowen blah blah blah... again, lip service. 29 other teams face the Spurs and I barely hear them complaining when they lose. I dunno what's so special about the Suns...

Nah. IF the Suns win it all, I'll come back to this thread and officially call myself a *****. Until then, the title belongs to him. :mrgreen:
