I don't know why Spurs are supposed to be scared of all these teams? They know everyone is making all these moves because of them. These teams, they are just flavors of the months. They should be scared of the Spurs and realize that when the pressure is on, Spurs will be there fighting harder than ever. It's not going to be a cake walk to beat them. And I mean actually beat them. No .04 bull , or anything like that.
Last year our record at this point was 33-16, this year it's 32-17, and we won it all last year.
Not this year...read my post.
Just hanging around. Too early to worry much. When Parker and Barry are healthy.... then we'll talk! GO SPURS GO !!!
Yeah, but last year, Pau Gasol wasn't being colluded to the Lakers(allegedly).
New year. Teams in the west have improved. The lakers are better after the Gasol trade and if Shaq can get healthy the suns will be better in the playoffs.
Last year Suns' record at this point was 39-11, this season it is 36-15.
Your team is worse than a year ago and you should know how the Suns ended their season last year.
Go back under your in' bridge.
And? I've said all along that as long as they make the list, Spurs still have a good shot at the le.The next three games are crucial to your playoffs hopes and if those games are lossses you are looking at a 7th or 8th seed.
Let's say it gets near the end of the season. Spurs are looking like the 8th seed. Suns are looking like nbr 1.
Will the Suns start dumping games trying to get to nbr2? Or will they pull a Dallas and get knocked out in the first round by the Spurs?
Maybe this is the year we start knocking off the top teams early, by being a lower seed.
Anyway, after the ASG, we'll see how the Spurs look. If Tony gets back to 100 percent, you will see an entirely different offensive team. If he doesn't, well, there is always next year. I suppose 5 in 10 years isn't too terrible.
CAUSE were still human. And the suns is 82-0?? (Totally abnormal) Four les in seven years is under achieving? what do you call suns' le hopes?
We don't need to be number one- we just need to be in the playoffs. We're just phasing our players for the playoffs - so we have an easier schedule in the playoffs.You are now 6th in the Conference with the Denver Nuggets right on you tails.
I don't know why anyone would bother answering such a stupid question. There are 2 obvious answers, and why bother answering someone too ignorant to see it?
There always need to be happenings to make the regular seaosn interesting. Its just the next chapter.
You wanna talk about underachieving?
Suns at home BARELY beat the depleted Wizards. no Arenas, Butler, Daniels.
and Amare was dunked on like a schoolgirl
Nash is well aware of questions concerning O'Neal's health.
"There's doubts and a risk to everything," Nash said. "I know that's going to be a favorite talking point for all the media, but for us the talking point is we've got an incredible, huge, talented, charismatic player in our locker room now. ... This sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun."
O'Neal's ability to lift spirits is another plus for a Suns team that seemed joyless despite its success.
"I think the Big Aristotle is going to be fun for us," Nash said. "He has a great personality and he is one of the most exciting, charismatic players we have had in this league in a long time. Hopefully he is as excited to be here as he sounds and as we are and gives everybody a big lift."
Wonder why Nash doesn't say things like "The missing piece of the puzzle"? Could it be because Nash knows Shaq isn't the answer to "get them over the hump"?
Ban the mofo
False premise.
They're doing ok.
i love it when suns fans think they can talk so much when they have accomplished nothing. beat us first, then you will have the right to say something.
It's funny that through all of these "struggles" the Spurs wins against teams that are over .500 are against Phoenix and the Lakers.
We're OK - not great but OK. Also a little banged up with TP and Brent out. Udoka getting more PT and starting to fit in. Will need to get TP and Brent back into the lineup for the final push. Due to those injuries it is difficult to really assess exactly where we are at this time. Once all the pieces are back it will be easier to tell. Not worried but could be if TP isn't up to his game.
Playoffs are a different game - no b2b and plenty of rest. Though this year it will be tougher than previous ones. The West is a beast and it might be that the team that ocmes out of the West is so beat up that the East takes the trophy. Will see.
Though past results aren't indicative of future ones the Spurs are in position for another playoff run and I wouldn't bet against them.
I guarantee you a 50 win team won't make it in the West. But look at the East. New Jersey is number 8 with a 22-29 record while Houston, who is currently out of the playoffs, would be number 4 in the East.
If anyone thought you actually wanted an answer they would answer.
The motto "Don't feed the trolls" should sound familiar to you.
We are losing and underachieving so much, because:
1. Older
2. Injured
3. More complacent
4. No personnel upgrades
5. Other team got younger, healthier, hungrier and better.
Next.
Princess Pimp is now on my ignore list
That function is so cool !!!
