Nah he blew ass. But his choking fit nicely along with Terry and Kidd.
Regular season this year:
12.0 PPG, 6.4 RPG, 1.4 APG, 50.8% shooting, 1.3 TOPG, 0.9 BPG, 0.8 SPG
Playoffs this year
8.7 PPG, 4.2 RPG, 1.0 APG, 40.7% shooting, 1.3 TOPG, 0.7 BPG, 0.8 SPG
But he played GREAT defense on Manu:
Now please all of the Marion apologists, remind why he wouldn't choke against the Spurs![]()
Nah he blew ass. But his choking fit nicely along with Terry and Kidd.
He underachieved but played for minutes. I'm
more worried about his decline and 4 more years on his contract![]()
carlisle, kidd, terry, and dampier deserve more blame than matrix.
fail thread , really nitpicking
, I guess I can throw in Barea.
Make a thread about those guys, this isn't the place to talk about them. Marion choked on 's and sucked against the Spurs, as usual. The fail was you saying he wouldn't choke.
Oh damn I seriously forgot about Kidd..Dude was shooting lights out from three this year, he was MIA in this series. Damn nobody on Dallas other then Dirk & Butler at times stepped up. Dallas is just not built for the playoffs, 85% of their players are jumpshooters.
+1
Except I'm not too sure about Damp.
If I'm ranking the level of blame it goes
Rick Carlisle
Jason Terry
Jason Kidd
Marion
Dampier was horrible. 0 FG's in the entire series I believe.
Matrix didn't even play relevant 2nd half minutes in the last 3 games.
I didn't expect him to score. It was Ricks fault that he got so many minutes.
That couldn't possibly be because he's known as someone who disappears in the 2nd half, could it?
great ing role player![]()
so where was the defense hahahahhaha fkn sunsfans and any matress worshipper
Marion was out there at the end... I remember celebrating when he took a shot (and missed obviously) with 3 mins to go and only down 2...
at this bum. this guy sucks. worse than jefferson.
his defense is ok, although overrated.
but is it just me or does this guy by far have the worst shot in the league, no touch whatsoever even on short gimmes...even the ones that actually go in look ugly as theyre never clean and always roll on the rim. i always laugh afterwards when they actually go in an the announcer says 'marion gets the shooter's roll' cause this dude is anything but a shooter with touch.
Wow... Who gave him that contract? Suns?
Diaw was also abysmal in the playoffs when his team needed a 3rd scorer to aide Jax and crash wallace. THE GREAT Steve Kerr looking smarter every day cleaning house of these D'antoni scrubs, the next step is Barbosa!
i still dunno why barbs is still on that suns team, dude is overpaid for playin off the bench and what he brings to the table...
At this point bosa is still on the team cause no one else wants him. It'll be a miracle if Kerr gets to unload that contract this summer, but again I thought there was no way he could unload Diaw's contract.
I just remember how Mavs fans thought the Marion trade put the Mavs ahead of the Spurs after they traded for Jefferson.![]()
I honestly don't think Marion was the problem. He played fine.
So Marion goes to Dallas and they suddenly suck against the Spurs.
Suns lose Marion and co-cancer Diaw, and they're up 2-0 on the Spurs.
Coincidence, I think not.
