    I don't think the Suns will be the favs, but the Spurs definately don't need to stand pat.
    Agree. the worst thing the spurs can do is come back with the same exact team and expect it to be enough. Don't get complacent. Always try to improve.

    Other teams can and will improve.

    suns lost a quality starter in richardson. they will not score as many points per game without him - this guy made 226 3 point fgs during the season for chrissakes 49 more than joe johnson, who was second on the team in 3 point makes- i know he choked in the playoffs, but he still gave them quality minutes and a ton of 3 point fgs that led to them getting hca. thomas will slow the suns down, and i would be shocked if he played center for them. amare is taller, and creates too many mismatches for opposing centers.

    Stoudemire doesn't have to guard Duncan since Thomas is the center. I would predict the suns win 65 games and beat the spurs in a long 7 game series in the western conference finals unless San Antonio does something big this offseason.
    ??? stoudemire didn't guard duncan the whole western conference finals, except for one play, the nice block...

    The Suns didn't get any deeper by adding an injury prone Thomas and a mediocre Bell. Nash will still have to play 40+ minutes a game to keep them in games. If anybody will lose a step next season it will be Nash, not Bowen. Bowen doesn't do the running around that Nash does. And he isn't as vital to the team as Nash. Do you honestly think that Bell can keep the team together the way Nash does? Don't even mention Barbosa as a suitable backup, the kid is a joke. They are still as deep as a ing puddle and will not go as far as they did this season.

    Wow. I didn't know I would be so popular but the fact is the spurs can't dominate forever. This is the suns coming out party. Duncan's injuries are not a good thing and seem to happen more frequent. I hope the spurs can pull it off but you can't take this team lightly. SAR will be needed as a backup.
    Yeah you're popular, but for wrong reasons. You're a complete joke. Last season was the Suns coming out party remember? They had the best record with home court advantage and practically got swept. And now with Thomas, they're supposed to demolish the Spurs? Get F-ing real!!

    Pick ONE f-ing team, either your precious T-Pups are gonna take it all or your Suns are the team to beat. Do I have to reiterate that I hate your persistent flip-flopping?

    The suns picking up Joe Johnson would be bad news for San Antonio. If they don't pick him up I'll give San Antonio the slight advantage. The suns could still get someone else like Dalembert or Chandler.

    Horry will soon be worthless. Its better to move a player right before he hits the downslide and thats now for Horry. Three years will be too much. Its not like there are no other nba players who could hit clutch shots in a final series. Don't think back to this year and expect Horry to always be able to deliver for the next 3 years.

    He is an overall average role player who has had some big moments in the finals.

    Then Ginobili can be that clutch guy. Spurs have the MLE, the almighty Scola and Rasho as trade bait in order to help them find Horry's eventually replacement as the primary backup big this summer.

    I'm not too worried.

    Thomas guarding Duncan? That should make Tim happy, considering it adds depth to his "I Own You" List.

    Duncan isn't as great as he was in 99 and I doubt he will ever get to that level again. Thomas is a decent defender who is a big time improvement over Marion. Hunter took away their great offensive attack when he was in so big move by Phoenix.

    SA would have a slight advantage? Kinda like that 4-1 advantage they had in the WCF?

    TD was going downhill after 2 years in the league?!?! Now I know you're a complete idiot. Going by your formula, then KG is way past him prime also!

    No one wants to admit but Joe Johnson being out was the difference in the series. Suns in 7 with him healthy. He was on fire before he went out.

    He's been injured the past two seasons how will you know until he's healthy? He had an awesome start to the 2003-2004 season, but then he hurt his knee. This year, he was injured all year, and the Spurs STILL won. He's finally getting rest, as well as Ginobili, so our team will most likely be healthy next season, assuming no more major injuries. A healthy Spurs team-now that's scary. If we had a good playoff record with an injured superstar, imagine what we'll do if he's 100%.

    Lets face it. Duncan isn't getting any younger. He hit his prime early at 25 and has declined slightly each year since. He was much quicker back in 99.

    Spurdaone care to lay a little wager on who Las Vegas has as the favorites the day before the season starts? I'll spot you that you can back out if the Suns don't sign Johnson.

    The suns will beat San Antonio in a tight series if they keep their team together and stay healthy. There are things that could take them out like the best team doesn't always win. For example Detroit should've won.

    I guess if it went 7 games with the Spurs on top 4-3, you're the kind of guy that would say, "Cmon, best of 9" Idiot!
