Maybe in key moments but I think the key to defending Nash is to throw several different guys at him and try to wear him down by the end of the games.Quote:

Bowen will see to it that Marion doesn't :)Quote:

LOL he kicked ass tonight and they won in 5 against a tough defensive team. He will go for 25 and 12 easy against the suns, probably more. Tony though is the key to the series he needs to be aggressive the whole way. The Suns up and down style of play is tailor made for him and they have nobody that can stop him.Quote:

You guys predicting 6/7 game series are crazy. This is a sweep and possibly 5 game series if Suns get too many breaks in a single game.
Well it's good to know that we got about 3 more hours of rest than the Suns.
Suns in 6.
You want to put some money on that?Quote:

You know I'm just playing out the role of bad guy. It's all goodQuote:

The key to our beating Phx last time was Pop putting Bowen on Nash, Parker on LB (since he's the only one quick enough to stay with him), and let Manu/Fin deal with Marion.
Marion isn't much of a dribbler and doesn't have a post up game, so size isn't a factor guarding him except on the boards. But we did a good job on him last time.
Maybe when Bell is in the game and Barbosa is in the bench we can guard them conventionally, but with LB in the game, Parker shouldn't be guarding Nash.
