but yeah this suns-mania irritates me sometimes.
..tired of the Sunsparticipating in ALL All-Star categories, okay? 3 in All-Star game, Skills challenge, & now the Radioshack Shooting Star?
Why can't they choose some from Chicago? Let MJ participate? or from NY Knicks ? or from the Kings?
how i wish Denver will win on this one.

They couldn't come up with a team from Seattle, SA, or NY?
Gimme a break. The Suns are fun, but they are rapidly becoming Laker Light this season.
Marion pisses me off because he has the worse jump shooting form in NBA history, and yet, he is able to make shots.
I think some spur fans are jealous
yes I wish spurs would get more national attention but defensive teams will never get as much as o teams
suns are a exciting team to watch
when mavs were scoring 110-120 they got lots of national attention also
with suns record and how much they school ofcourse they are going to get shoved down your throat
but atleast it is a team and not a player (like king james)
The Suns are fun to watch but there is 200 players in the league, they don't need their whole fvcking roster in Denver.
All-Star game for me is showing each team's brilliance but it seems they were missing some teams' brilliance at all this yr. Chicago has become HOT. And Kings will always be Kings. But no All-Star at all. And that's sad.
hey watch out for the release of the All-Star Dunk Contest.
Amare will be on that list, too! Ho! Ho! ho!
Well deserved!..tired of the Suns

The best Team in the NBA (Suns) deserve to have more representation.
The spursies are not the best team I know that for sure..
Of course -- they only have a practically-identical record and a 2-0 mark against Phoenix, including an absolute blowout at home and a monster comeback on the road.The spursies are not the best team I know that for sure..
I can see how you could ignore that . . . .
The Suns are by far better than the spursies, I like their offense, they are fun to watch.
Defense is boooooooooring.
I'll take the Suns or even the Sonics over the spursies any time.
Yes the spursies beat the Suns twice but that doesn't mean they're better.
...ohh bec. it's the Lakers?The spursies are not the best team I know that for sure..
not the Spurs but certainly NOT your team, too LakerGod.
let me take a look on reality.
Overall
Team GB
1. Phoenix -
2. San Antonio ½
3. Seattle 4
4. Dallas 6
5. Sacramento 7
6. Houston 9½
7. Memphis 10½
8. L.A. Lakers 14
9. Minnesota 15½
10. L.A. Clippers 17
11. Denver 17
12. Portland 18½
13. Utah 23
14. Golden State 26
15. New Orleans 29½
nonsense! now let me get back to my.
LakerGod, better tell Kobe to beat first those players they called Sac Queens(currently # 1 on your division), then get back to us.
Your "intellect" is truly dizzying.
Marion kicks ass
Love it.
LakerGod, you are biased and have dwindling credibility of your basketball knowledge around here by stating that the Suns are the "best team in the league", especially since they've already lost TWICE to San Antonio. Laker troll. Gheez!
Saying he has "dwindling credibility" makes the unwarranted assumption that he ever had credibility...
Are You Kidding?
The Suns are 5 Great Starters, not a Team, they haven´t a Bench, and a all Team need a Bench
The Spurs are a Great Team: Have Great Starters, Great Bench and a Graet Coach
If anything i'm glad for Marion. He's been underappreciated all these years. , AK gets more props than him and Marion is twice the player. If anything Amare should be the one axed from the dunk contest. I mean, what's next? Shaq? Dunking fiercly doesn't mean your entertaining in the dunk contest.
..well, AMARE IS IN ,
THE FINAL LIST FOR THE DUNK CONTEST INCLUDES..
1. AMARE-Suns again(?)
2. JOSH SMITH-Rookie,Atlanta Hawks
3. J.R. SMITH-Rookie,New Orleans Hornets
4. CHRIS ANDERSEN-New Orleans Hornets
no, 2004 champ FRED JONES
