Marcin Gortat rips his new team

[BillWalton]

It's one thing to say it to the media but did he atleast explain it to the team?

[pawe]

This team confuses me a lot.
They should've just stuck with DAntoni and SSOL, they were elite under his tenure. Why kick him out and replace him with Porter and Gentry who tries oh so hard to introduce defense when they already have a reputation of a team unable to play defense.
If I am an NBA player and I know im going to be traded to the Suns, my mentality will automatically be "time to score!".
If you cant play defense, just try to outscore the other team. Get rid of the slow inside bangers and go for quick athletic freaks like Marion, Jrich and Stoudemire...oh wait...

[Cessation]

Yeah they ed up big time getting rid of dantoni, at least he knew how to play to your strength.

[Spurs9]

Alvin G before the game "Okay guyz, tonight we need to run the ball"

[ShoogarBear]

Gortat better watch out.

Terry Porter will tell you what Nash will do to you if you try to talk about defense.

[rayjayjohnson]

lol @ irrelevant polish player butthurt that he got traded to a backwater.

Gortat leads the league in ugly.

So far they are holding Detroit to 43%. Damn, did I just type that about the Suns?

I think you maybe just wrote that about Detroit, really

[spurs10]

No .

Exactly. I think Amar'e has all the tools to one day be a solid defender due to his size and athleticism, but Steve Nash on the other hand is now their best player and can't play defense.

[Pistons < Spurs]

The Pistons scored 104 against the Celtics, and just 75 against the defensive minded Suns!

Whoa! The Suns are now the 2008 Celtics!!!

[mojorizen7]

Gortat only speaking the truth.
If you take a single Marlboro red cigarette and put it in with a pack of menthols a day later its a menthol.
Its only a matter of time before Gortat becomes a defensively clueless sieve like everyone else who wears the Purple and Orange.

The offensive culture is embedded here in PHX....and having Nash play here till he's 40 ing yrs old isn't helping either because he IS the box system that wont die.
