I'm still not convinced the Marion-Shaq trade worked to the Suns' advantage...but that doesn't mean Shaq isn't still a beast. It just means his game might not have been the right fit for the Suns.
Shaq is a beast.
Give Green some non-garbage minutes, dammit.

thanks for backing me up. it pisses me off when people won't give a player his due props because he's on a rival team. i mean, i've HATED Kobe for years, but he still gets my All-Star vote. I just can't not vote for him.
and Shaq? Idiots think that because he's not as dominate as he once was, that makes him washed-up. Wrong.
When hte mavs struggle to beat the worst of the NBA at home, it isnt a surprised to see them get blasted by a good team on the road. Mavs will probably beat Sacto and get blown by the Nuggs, Hornets and Jazz
^ That's d-u-m.
I have no problem admitting I was wrong about Shaq and the trade. I didn't think there was any chance at all he could return to playing at this kind of level.
Erica's asshole hurts tonight.
BTW, by the second time JRich burned Terry, maybe it was time to try something else defensively? Not that it mattered anyways.
Brick, we ain't getting a Gasol-like trade. The Mavs don't have the connections the Lakers do.
As for Shaq, he's played very well all season. But he seems healthier to me as well. Maybe the Phoenix medical staff is really as good as some people claim. Shaq has much more of a bounce to his step this year than he did last year. I wonder whether some team should pick him up in the trade deadline, he can still help you win a championship. The Cavs have some expiring deals for example. Shaq on a team with LeBron would be sick.
payback payback payback, mavs s that was talkin all that after last game
The Suns player with the ponytail is Lou Amundson. He brings a lot of energy and hustle off the bench. He's a good role player and just needs to work on his free throw shooting to become even more valuable.
He made Dirk his tonight.
I'm sure that'll matter in a year from now when he's out of the league.
Remember that time he had that good game against Dirk!
I finally get to see Pho win a game on TV W00t!!!!
Not sure what to make of Dallas, they wooped Pho last time, but of course this is on the road, but they looked rough tonight. I'm not sure how many kickouts to kidd for 3 I saw tonight, but I don't think that's the play carlisle has in mind.
the Suns bench alone probably would have blown out the Mavs tonight too.
Even Robin Lopez had 4 rebounds lol. I hope Josh Howard is healthy should they meet in the playoffs.
Do you even know wtf you're talking about? He's having a great year considering the role he was supposed to play.
Getting 4 points on 2-7 shooting from Devean George is more valuable.
Devean's defense is very valuable. Maybe we'll get lucky and actually get to see it one night.
last nights game is the first time i had to look away.
We can attribute that to Nash's ball hawking habit on D where he thinks he's supposed to just follow the ball around and lose track of the guy he's supposed to be guarding. I've seen several plays where he's guarding someone, that person passes the ball, Nash goes to follow the ball and try to steal it, and the player that caught it passes it right back to the guy Nash is supposed to be guarding for a wide open shot.
Point being, Porter is too afraid and weak to hold Nash accountable on D. He's never going to be a lock down defender but he can do what Jason Williams did in 2006.
I wish they both could have lost.
The Suns are a good rebounding team this year. They're ranked 10th in the league with a positive rebounding differential (+1.27). Dallas is ranked 9th (+1.44). Not that big of a difference.
Uh yeah, he sucks.
