    Where did the proverbial chip on the shoulder of the Suns come from? Didn't we beat them at their own game without hardly breaking a sweat last year? Yet everytime I turn around, some member of their organization is running his mouth about how great they are.

    Check out this gem by the one hit wonder Mike D'Antoni (a gold card carrying member of Pop's ho-a-da-day club by the way);

    “You know, I’m sure it was a hard decision for him. He has a couple friends on our team that I’m sure he disappointed, but again, it’s just an opportunity for other guys to play a little bit more minutes and we have a slew of guys on the roster that are capable. Really I hate it for him that he’s going to miss a championship.”
    Here's the link to the rest of the article.

    It's probably out of context, he was probably saying it tounge in cheek.

    How can anyone not say SA is a le contender? If he's serious, than him.

    "Really I hate it that he's going to miss a championship"?!
    He's joking right?

    You mean losing Joe Johnson, Quentin Richardson, Steven Hunter and having no legitimate backup for your 31 year old point guard makes you a champion? But wait, they added Raja Bell and Boris Diaw right? Watch out Spurs fans.

    Amazing how this clown talks such a big game after his ass got stomped like a mudhole and walked dry in front of his own fans.

    The only thing he will miss is Cuban trying to hump him after winning a game.

    Im a Spurs fan from West Virginia (since 1990). I'm embarrassed to hear another WVian say that. Please, we WVians are smarter than that.

    wow. you people really don't like our coach much. Trust me people in PHX don't think yours but we would never say mean things about him. Coach D was coach of the year and were all proud of him for what he did with the suns.Everyone keeps saying the suns will be bad ,how about you let the suns chose that for themselfs.i think you all remember what happened last year when people said we would be lucky to get into the playoffs.
    Go Suns!

    Actually, I think almost everybody who really understood basketball had picked the Suns to be the Most Improved Team before 04-05, after you guys picked up Nash and Q. I don't think people realized just how well it end up working, but a lot of people had them pick to go from the dumpster to the playoffs last year. The Sonics ended up being the ones that caught us all off-gaurd.

    Problem being, you guys shipped off like half of the good thing you had going last year. The Suns are still a good team, because Nash is still a great point gaurd, and Amare is a force to be reckoned with. However, aside from the whole Stockton/Malone thing workin for you, I think your team is probably going to have to squash more doubts this year then they did last.

    D'Antoni runs his mouth, Amare does pushups and Sarver does the chicken dance. In the end, they're humiliated on their own home court and they still don't have the sense keep their mouths shut.

    What's not to like?

    Looks like D'Antonio is a graduate of the Phil Jackson school of arrogance.

    May be some of chicken's at ude and antics got rubbed on to him

    Seriously, WTF is he talking about?? I can imagine a suns reporter writing stuff like "fin misses c;ship" etc.. but this coming from a coach. Somebody in Suns org. who has some sense should say to Mr. D to STFU...oh wait we're talking about chickens.

    Man, I can see the quarrel with D'Antoni, but what did you really expect him to say? Should he have said "Well, Fin went to San Antonio, so we're all playing for second place now."

    He shouldn't have said anything, lol. Maybe a "We will see on our other options now" but nothing more.

    Right, he could have been more diplomatic, perhaps. But, even as a Spurs fan, I'd be disappointed in him if he didn't believe that his team will win the championship. He could have expressed himself better, but there isn't anything wrong with the idea.

    True.. True..

    Seriously D'Antoni says a lot of things toungue and cheek, so this can easily be taken out of context. What's wrong with having confidence in your team?

    D'Antoni is a weed. He spoke out of turn again - which is his nature. It'll give all of us here great pleasure in doing, this year, the one thing we didn't get done last year on our way to the NBA championship - SWEEPING THE SUNS PUNK-ASSES.

    There is a difference between having confidence and being y. I say he is the latter. I guess we will find out this next year who was right and who was wrong, but if I was a betting man, I wouldn't put my money on D'Antoni, that's for sure, unless I want to be homeless.
