Don't think back to this year and expect Horry to always be able to deliver for the next 3 years.

Agree. the worst thing the spurs can do is come back with the same exact team and expect it to be enough. Don't get complacent. Always try to improve.Quote:

suns lost a quality starter in richardson. they will not score as many points per game without him - this guy made 226 3 point fgs during the season for chrissakes 49 more than joe johnson, who was second on the team in 3 point makes- i know he choked in the playoffs, but he still gave them quality minutes and a shit ton of 3 point fgs that led to them getting hca. thomas will slow the suns down, and i would be shocked if he played center for them. amare is taller, and creates too many mismatches for opposing centers.
??? stoudemire didn't guard duncan the whole western conference finals, except for one play, the nice block...Quote:

Do you honestly think that Bell can keep the team together the way Nash does? Don't even mention Barbosa as a suitable backup, the kid is a joke. They are still as deep as a fucking puddle and will not go as far as they did this season.
Yeah you're popular, but for wrong reasons. You're a complete joke. Last season was the Suns coming out party remember? They had the best record with home court advantage and practically got swept. And now with Thomas, they're supposed to demolish the Spurs? Get F-ing real!!Quote:

The suns picking up Joe Johnson would be bad news for San Antonio. If they don't pick him up I'll give San Antonio the slight advantage. The suns could still get someone else like Dalembert or Chandler.

I'm not too worried.
Thomas guarding Duncan? That should make Tim happy, considering it adds depth to his "I Own You" List.Quote:

SA would have a slight advantage? Kinda like that 4-1 advantage they had in the WCF? :shootmeQuote:

A healthy Spurs team-now that's scary. If we had a good playoff record with an injured superstar, imagine what we'll do if he's 100%.Quote:

Lets face it. Duncan isn't getting any younger. He hit his prime early at 25 and has declined slightly each year since. He was much quicker back in 99.
Spurdaone care to lay a little wager on who Las Vegas has as the favorites the day before the season starts? I'll spot you that you can back out if the Suns don't sign Johnson.Quote:
