    The suns window was never open to begin with.Suns fans who think a 36 year old nash and a 37 year old hill will keep playing forever are fools.this is nash's last good year.He will start the decline next year.Dragic is not that good.he just got lucky with tim guarding him because pop is too stubborn and keeps swtiching.parker was also hurting.

    I think the window is closed for all the west teams.Even lakers cant win it this year.they have no bench and they will get tired by the time they get to the final.Kobe is already 32 bynum is always injured and their perimeter sucks.They might get bosh so that would help.

    The spurs will get splitter to help tim and they just need some good defenders and 3 pt shooters like in the past.our bench is why we lost.Our starters got so tired at the end.you cant expect tim at 34 to have the stamina he had when he was 24.he is the most productive 34 year old big man around but he shouldnt play more than 32 minutes.we need some perimeter D and hopefully splitter can block shots.
    We'll see how it goes.

    In the west, the teams who will take over these next 5 years will be OKC, portland, Houston, Denver but no spurs, lakers, suns or dallas.these teams are just too old and all their star players are past their prime
    Portland: If they are healthy (hmm, that sounds eerily familiar)

    Houston: Health, depends onmoves this summer

    Denver:

    Spurs: Seems as if that window is shut

    Dallas: Depends on if Mavs can acquire a star

    OKC: Definitely on the rise

    Suns: Contenders for a while

    Lakers: Still gonna be the team to beat, unless someone else upgrades

    Once the mandate of doubling Duncan ceased, it changed this team dramatically. There was no adjustment for Pop to make at this reality. One can't make one double team your dominant big.

    Little nuances etched on Pop's face the last few months spelled volumes:

    * Resignation at the strategies of the opponents being strange from the years passed.

    * Jefferson's poor static play from start to finish was debilitating mentally and on court. Pop was truly aghast.

    * No matter the deduction in minutes for Duncan, the leg never stopped dragging. Ever.

    * The invincibility was gone and all those they'd vanquished came for them.

    I thought the Suns' window was shut after 2008.

    WRONG.
    You think?

    I think that you think like we thought after beating Dallas.
