Mike D'Antoni has remained intrigued with bringing exiled Jazz guard Raja Bell to Lakers, sources say.
Should be great for team chemistry, tbh...
D'Antoni wants to bring all the ex Suns players to LA
They actually made up with each other a year later, laughed about it, and have been ing each other in the ass ever since. Kobe campaigned for LA to get Bell 1-2 years ago iirc.
The real problem here is D'antoni's only solution to every problem is trying to emulate the 2007 suns more.
Think Jalen Rose is ready for a comeback?
Jalen Rose hated being on that 2007 team and talks about D'antoni every time he can because of it
I'm thinking Marcus Banks might be signed to back Nash up in the near future...
Had to look up to see if the guy is still even in the NBA.
next he'll probably trade pau or even DH for marion + trashes
Q-rich, Tim Thomas, hunter smith all waiting for invites tbh
Tim Thomas
Damn, do they have any expirings to throw New York for Nigmare?
that guy
Los Angeles Suns
They just need to do Pau for Amar'e and everything's set
I played for the Phoenix Suns. 2007. My last season. As were playing against the San Antonio Spurs. And I remember us coming to our first practice before Game 1. And we brought it in. And we were excited about our playoffs getting started. And Coach D'Antoni put in some film. It was Steve behind the back. Amare slam dunk. Shawn Marion with the block. Raja Bell with the charge. It was a highlight film of our team. They have showed me making a shot on there, and I was barely even playing.
So after that he as like all right, we're going to run and down, go through our set plays and whatnot, and we're going to get out of here.
And I looked at Kurt Thomas. I hit him with an elbow. I'm like hold on. I gotta say something.
So I did my Arnold Horshack from "Welcome Back, Kotter."
I'm like "ooh, ooh, ooh, hey coach. I gotta ask a question. Are we going to talk about how we're going to defend Tim Duncan on the post? Are we going to talk about Manu Ginobili in pick and roll? Keeping Tony Parker out of the paint?"
He looked at me in front of the entire team and coaching staff and said: "We're not worried about what they do. If we play to the best of our abilities, and do what we're supposed to do, there is no way they can beat us. We don't mind if Tim goes off. If Tim goes off, that means everybody else is quiet."
So, people gave us a pass. And we were a great team. And Robert Horry did knock my guy Steve Nash into the scoreboard. And Amare Stoudemire and Boris Diaw got up off the bench and I should have been paying attention and being a vet, and grabbed Amare -- maybe I'd have a ring to this day.
They walked out on the floor, they get suspended late in the series, and we did lose that game.
But we really lost the series in Game 1. When the guy that couldn't beat us by himself -- Tim Duncan -- he only had 40 and 20 in Game 1. [Ed. note: Actually 33 and 16.]
So that's really when we lost the series.
You're saying that if Rick Carlisle coached that team ...
Breeze through. I have a 'chip. I would have a 'chip.
That's gotta be a bad feeling.
It is what it is.

If not for duncan and manu and tp and bowen and horry Dantoni would have 1 or 2 rings and would have respect for good. Those sun teams really were pummeling teams. Just that the spurs were a matchup nightmare for them.
Pau for JJ !
Probably 2007 for sure, but they wouldn't have beaten Pistons in 05
Can't he get enough?
Can't he get enough?
Raja Bell and no other effin player can save the Lakers now.
trade DH to dallas for Marion and whatever else you want except dirk, lets do it NOW mitch!!!
