Why not?
Why not?
why don't Spurs go behind him?
Exactly. Marion's only missed 15 games in his last 6 seasons, while Odom rarely plays more than 60 games per season. If Odom was as durable as Marion, making that swap wouldn't be painful.
Because he has three rings in SA and Tim Duncan, . Why would he want to play with the injury ward that is TMac and Yao?
He may or may not want to leave SA. He may have deep connection with SA and fans here. But it doesn't mean SA is the best place for him.
BTW, I think it is normal for players to get injured. I don't think Tmac and Yao will be injured every season.
So you're supposedly a Spurs fan and you want him in Houston? This is definitely a Houston fan being a Spurs troll.
I am a Manu fan, and always support his team.
Why is it exactly you are only a fan of Manu?
I was only a fan of MJ. After he is retired, I become Manu's fan because they have same spirit and that is why I like bball.
So why do you refuse to root for a team?
Actually, I root for Spurs now.
So why do you want Manu in Houston?
I believe Houston is better place for Manu.
But, we all know that Spurs won't trade Manu to Houston.
And, I always support his team.
Teams for manu?
1) Spurs
2) Suns
3) Lakers
Well, at least he's honest about being a Manu fan over being a Spurs fan.![]()
RE: Odom being injury prone
Agree..he has always been injury prone...
However...he never seems to be injured during the post season.
He can be injured all he wants with the Suns...they don't need him to win during the regular season...they need him to win in the post season.
Phoenix will roll to 58+ wins with or without him, the system is that good during the regular season....
Taking that into account...I still like this trade more for Phoenix than LA.
Marion's nickname ought to be the invisible man...he's just not a dominant player...to paraphrase Pop, he's a role player to the nth degree.
You never know...Phil may be able to coax more than that out of him...however, Marion seems to be a little on the sensitive side and I am not sure Phil's prodding is going to get the most out of him...
He plays extremely hard and he knows it...therefore any sort of impuning his game tends to get a negative reaction out of him...he's just not a dominant player and I don't think that can be changed. However....if anyone can change that, it will be Phil.
I still like the trade better for Phoenix...I don't see LA improving much at all.
Marion is the ultimate role player, but I think it's unfair to say he disappears in the playoffs. His postseason statistics are pretty similar to his regular season statistics--I think his points go down slightly but his rebounds go up.
The only team who gives him problems is the Spurs, but he performs well against all other teams.
