Goran = GOAT, future 10-time Finals MVP.

Suns suck balls against teams that play the slow-it-down, slug-it-out style. Memphis and Chicago are 5-0 against Phoenix.

Doesn't bode well for their chances in the playoffs when the game slows down. Could explain why McD is looking at Gasol.

PG-led teams, even as good as the monkeyball, will always have a hard time getting past the 2nd round imho, never mind making the NBA finals.

Well the Suns weren't expected to crack 20 games this year, so I'll live with a first round exit.

last PG-led team that made the NBA finals was the 03' Nets imho. TP and Chauncey won the finals MVPs but I'd never think of them as leaders of their teams. Spurs has always been led by that man from Virgin Island since 97, while the 04' Pistons featured an exact archetype of system ball where the was no real leader. Chauncey won the trophy for being the best performer of that series and the same goes for the 07' parker, but it ain't having to do with leadership imho.

Plus, the "PG-led team" theory was initially introduced by a genius Jewish economist known as DoK on spurstalk, not a theory of mine like the "the seasonal variation of sunlight intensity" theory.

PG-led teams historically not being able to get over the hump makes me wonder why Isiah Thomas is such an underrated and rarely mentioned player when discussing the greatest

That Pistons squad had the following

League's best defense
Thugs to rough up opposing players
Hustle & Rebounds
Good shooters
and most importantly an elite defender in Dumars

This is a good point. It is quite clear several Suns players struggle with physical play and get out of rhythm - Frye and Green especially.
Not sure if getting Gasol will improve the toughness :D

As for Dragic - realistically speaking Paul and Parker are still better but that may change in the near future.

Not sure how I would rank Curry - he is a media darling but I think Dragic is slowly getting better.

I've always liked Dragic even back then when he was still backing up Nash in Phoenix.

:lmao destroying Sasha Vujacic in Game 6 of the 2010 WCF

Those guys had stacked rosters and great scoring options. Magic and Isiah had a ton of help and Stockton had Malone. You can add GP to that mix as well.

In today's era, PG-led teams are no longer that great, any PG-led team is going to struggle against Miami, as it was evident in the 2011 ECF and 2013 Finals, Miami has arguably the best defense in the league when it comes to perimeter defense.

Come on, if Goran gets at least 5-times Finals MVP, that would be already a nice acheivement

Yeah... Frye, Green and Tucker missed loads of wide open shots.

But give credit do the Bulls - they play top notch defense! Noah deserves to be an allstar.

He also made some clutch shots in the fourth. The Suns need to learn how to win this slow pace games if they wanna make the playoffs.

Parker won his finals MVP because Mike Brown is an idiot and expected Parker to fold like he did in every other playoff series the spurs lost. A good strategy but he didn't have one to fall back on when parker decided to play the best series of his life. And by that i mean a series where he didn't miss his open shots
