Same thing was said about Kidd, Cuban and the Mavs.
Anything can happen.

^It's understandable. She's his aunt. + I needed regulatin'.
You obviously haven't been following the Mavs enough. They rely very little on Kidd's passing. Kidd can't even drive anymore. He basically just throws the ball to someone and waits at the 3 point line. Hardly an important player. Now I will give him credit on his defense and rebounding as long as he doesn't have to face a speedy player. But his offense is very one-dimensional and mainly just a role player that usually is left open.
Those 3's he made throughout the playoffs were killer.
And you know it.
Eh....
wut?
In that case, he was a 2 guard. Not quite the point guard we thought we were getting. All you had to do is make him take a shot off the dribble and he usually missed.
Exactly. You don't know what's up. Stick to your own team.
Though it eventually got Pau Gasol.
You feel guilty for winning an NBA le for some damn reason. I can't fathom it though. But, if you need to beat yourself up over it, knock yourself out.
It's almost adorable.
Nope. Try again.
What do you want, Thou? You're searching for something in the backwash of your deliverance. This self flaggelation is without merit. For you:::this is as good as it's gonna get it. And most likely it won't get this good again.
You think it was some kind of accident, or easy that Kidd made those 3's, that Dirk came back from 15 down, that Barea & Stevenson rose above their station. It only looks easy to you because you're wounded & scarred from '06 and the tragedies in your deep past. Even now you can't face what could have happened. You can't be still and sated because you're still in a state of shock from your victory in June as well as the losses prior to that. I've been there. I was there in '85. The old lady had taken the children out for the afternoon because I couldnt' bear to be with anybody win or lose that Sunday afternoon. & when it was over I was still miserable because I still couldn't face what could have happened. Like you and yours it took me months to face victory and embrace it in my heart instead of just my eyes & brain.
Yeah, but at the end he and Terry would have been on the court... Marion on Kobe and Terry or Harris against Artest? Or Harris or Terry on James/Wade?
I hated when we traded for Raef LaFrentz.
STUPIDEST: Dennis Johnson for Rick Robey
- Really nothing more needs to be said about this. Robey sucked and Johnson, while aged, was still very capable and the mid-late-80s Suns could have used both the production and leadership.
RUNNER UP: Kidd for Marbury
MOST UNNECESSARY: Michael Finley, Sam Cassell for Jason Kidd
- It can be argued that you never turn down a hall-of-famer, but when you're trading two All-Star wings for a PG when you already have Kevin Johnson and Steve Nash, I'm not really sure what it was needed for? Keep the highly efficient and savvy Cassell, the often dynamic Finley and trade Nash for the Mavericks 1999 1st (Marion) and build around a perimeter core of Cassell, Finley and Marion. This would have been highly effective, with better perimeter depth than any of the teams Kidd had to work with.
WORST: Three 1sts, two 2nds, Wesley Person for Antonio McDyess, 1st
- Considering the players taken with the traded picks, it doesn't look horrible, but trading multiple 1sts and 2nds for a contract-year player that wasn't retained despite your best efforts really depleted the Suns roster flexibility and talent for 3/4 years, and to make matters worse, the one 1st they did acquire had unlimited lottery protection on it, and, ultimately was deemed a lost cause and traded to clear salary by (wait for it, wait for it...) the owner prior to Robert Sarver, Jerry Colangelo.
RUNNER UP: Kurt Thomas, two 1sts for CAP relief
RUNNER UP UP: Brian Grant/Rajon Rondo for CAP relief, future 1st
Cassell did not like Cotton Fitzsimmons. Hated him.
Suns fans never really liked Cassell either. The Suns bringing in 94-95 Rocket players who had broken the hearts of so many Phoenix fans was such a re ed idea, Mario Elie being the most notable one.
Ainge is the reason. Threw the ball into Ellie's face on the inbounds and nobody forgot it. Cassell sold out Cotton. Horry threw the towel into Ainge's mug. Only Elie paid for his sin of throwing that kiss to Colangelo:::Jerry made him go out to Christown Mall and sell ducats.

Kidd hated every coach he ever played for, too... got every single one of 'em fired or forced 'em to quit.
Suns post Barkley were a mess. Too many guards, not enough bigs. They tried to remedy it with Kidd and McDyess, but neither trade worked out well, IMO. I think they paid too much for Kidd when they didn't have to (why it was an unnecessary trade), and paid a king's ransom for a player who didn't want to stay with them (why it was the worst trade).
, they could have cut out the middle-trade and got Marbury for Cassell straight up and still had Finley and Marion.
Eddie Jones and Seldom Cambell for Glen Rice. Mental midgets will read this and say WTF, the won a ring with Rice. Shallow thinking at best. Don't do that trade and Phil Jax has this starting lineup to coach:
Fish
Eddie Jones
Kobe @ SF
Campbell
Shaq
^ 4 peat at a minimum. Plus they had a decent beach.![]()
IIRC they dumped Jones because of Kobe. They had to make a decision.
