I think the bench should play more. I think the starters play too many minutes. I seen games when they are playing garbage minutes. Banks,Rose and Jumaine Jones should be getting at least 10-15 minutes per game. Teams normally shorten their rotations during the playoffs but teams like Dallas keep the starters more fresh by limiting thier playing time in the regular season as much as possible.

No Jamison or Butler. Even though Arenas is going through a rough patch now I still like thier chances. If Jamison comes back healthy and with Butler the Wiz have a good chance of winning the East. It all depends on Jamison and of course how Wade comes back if at all. It would not surprise me to see them in the ECF. Thats what the East has been reduced to. Of course the team that wins the East will get the privilege of being annihilated by the West champions.

Wade decided to come back? I would like to see how he comes back. You know teams are going to be more physical with Wade to test that shoulder. I still like the Wiz's chances to at least make the ECF but I have the feeling that Detroit will pull it off. Especially since the Pistons will have homecourt throughout the East playoffs.

last night i read some article about his interview after meeting the prez in d.c....he was going to opt for vigorous rehab and the prognosis is that he could come back to play by the last two weeks of the REGULAR season. he'll have to get surgery in the summer regardless which is why i think he just wants to try the rehab now.

Likely, but not a lock by any means.Detroit will be very competitive if they get back in the Finals, just because they know what it takes to win. As always, their weak link sits on the bench in a suit.

If everyone in the East gets vaporlock and the Wiz come out, they will get destroyed, even by the Suns. Although that would be entertaining as hell for the 4-5 games it lasts.

Cleveland has a little shot because they occasionally make attempts to play defense and because they matchup well with the Spurs, if that's who they meet.

I am writing off Miami until I actually see Wade back on the court.

Everyone said that, since Nash was out and the Suns lost that it was proof that he's the MVP. So, what about tonight? Maybe Marion is the MVP (by that absurd logic).

The truth is that the Suns can't win any games unless they shoot the ball very well, which they didn't do. If they could play any defense they could win games like this...but this was proof that they play no D.

Cleveland's lack of a point guard Snow and Jones won't cut in the playoffs. Also thier frontline is inferior to Detroit's frontcourt.

The Suns are very catchable, especially if fatigue overtakes the starters.

Particularly because the Spurs could still own the tiebreaker over the Suns -- if the Spurs win the remaining game between the teams (which is in San Antonio), they'll own the season series. I'd be shocked if it happened, but the Spurs could conceivably still grab the #2 seed, which would be huge as a first round advantage, I think.

the Mavs didnt have Josh Howard for 10 games, and the Mavs found a way to step it up and go 9-1.

in the three games that Dirk got hurt early (2 games, and played only 10 minutes) or didnt play (1 game), they went 3-0.

Stackhouse, Damp, Buckner, Harris, Diop, and George have missed a total of 28 games, and the Mavs lost only in 1 of them.

Your hyperbole just disguises the fact that you don't know what you're talking about.

I stand by that quote. Players are not made more vulnerable by the style of basketball they play... You said that I said that their conditioning prevents injury, when I actually said...


...it has more to do with personal, physical weakness and random accidents during the game.

The Suns players are less vulnerable than most players to fatigue-related injury because they are better conditioned to run for a whole game. Their strategy against lesser teams is to wear them out and then beat them in the 4th quarter when they start to tire. Now, if D'Antoni keeps playing all 5 of his starters for 40+ minutes a game, then naturally our guys will get tired. No Starting 5 should have to carry that kind of load.

Let me spell it out for you again: The tempo doesn't cause injury because the Suns are used to that tempo; physical weakness and freak in-game accidents cause injury. As far as I know, the only player who might be affected by heavy minutes is Steve Nash, who had all kinds of problems before he even came to Phoenix.

Is it because they are the most unlucky victims of freak in-game accidents in the history of sports, or is it because their breakneck style of play encourages injury?

I do agree about one thing...the Suns ARE the most physically weak team around.

I can't count how many times fans of all teams (Rocket fans, Laker fans, Spurs fans, Mavs fans, etc.) would contribute the loser's injury to the Suns' victory. When the Suns went on that 17-game winning streak, that's all we heard about, after every win, every single time.

"This streak doesn't mean anything, the Suns keep playing teams without their star player!"

The Mavs haven't lost to the Suns yet so I doubt we could have used injuries as an excuse for a loss to the Suns. If anything, the excuse would be because of how badly Jake Voskuhl schooled Martin Muursepp in the paint.

I meant that Mavs fans would downplay Suns' victories by pointing to the fact that Suns' opponents were short-handed. And then with the very same breath they accuse Suns fans of using injuries as an excuse. Quite hypocritical.

The Suns haven't really had an excessive amount of injuries this year. It just seems like it because D'Antoni has done a terrible job of developing the bench's confidence and refuses to give anyone beyond James Jones any minutes. Thus, we're shorthanded even if one player goes down, because our rotation gets cut down to 7 players.

Well remember, every other team isn't as well conditioned, and they aren't "less vulnerable to injury" the way the Suns are. The fact that the Suns (especially Jake Voskuhl) are so well-conditioned and "less vulnerable to injury" should mean that injuries shouldn't be an excuse at all compared to every other team.

Well remember, every other team isn't as well conditioned, and they aren't "less vulnerable to injury" the way the Suns are. The fact that the Suns (especially Jake Voskuhl) are so well-conditioned and "less vulnerable to injury" should mean that injuries shouldn't be an excuse at all compared to every other team.


I have to wonder; what is your fascination with Jake Voskuhl? You know he has been a Bobcat for two years now right?


End of a road trip, players out, doesn't matter Suns have nobody to blame but themselves. They still had many chances to win the game but didn't get it done.

Doesn't matter who he plays for - he's a Phoenix Sun at heart. He was their greatest cheerleader ever.

That's true - that type of bench enthusiasm is missing from this year's team, in my opinion.... lots of quiet guys like James and Jumaine Jones and Pat Burke on th bench.

I thought that title belonged to Paul Shirley?

At least Voskuhl played and is still in the league.

Jake and Bo Outlaw were a great cheerleading duo back in the '05 season. This year's bench is definitely much quieter.

Monosylab, you keep ignoring the fact that we're talking about fatigue-related injuries. Being well-conditioned can't combat bad knees or a bad back.

So everybody on the Suns has bad knees or a bad back? Is that what you're telling me? Do you think that...maybe....just maybe....they have bad knees or a bad back BECAUSE the style of basketball they play causes extra fatigue and stress?

Nash's back problems are genetic, so he'd probably have them regardless.

No, no, and...maybe...no.

hope he's fine, must've happened in practice

hey amare_32, what's your opinion about the heavy minutes some of these guys are playing, particularly nash? are you cool with it? i don't wanna start a flame war so if you feel more comfortable PM me. i'm just curious from a Suns fan perspective.
Its got to be bad for the players, even with some of the youth on the team, it wears you down. Its one of the reason people dont worry about the Suns because come playoff time they are dog tired

Apparently Marion and Diaw are both going to be out tonight. D'Antoni seriously needs to stop playing his starters 40+ minutes every game. Give Jalen and Jumaine some burn, for God's sake.

I could repeat myself ad nauseam until I'm blue in the face, or I could do something a bit more productive. You can guess which of those options I'll choose. This argument's over.

With the same illogical bullshit. You're right, the argument is over. Thanks for playing.
