Suns got alot tougher.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

good, i hope he adds to the beat down the KKK will get tonight

[spursfaninla]

Jalen is old. Jalen is out of shape, which is why he didn't contribute to the Knicks.

Jalen does not add anything to this team that they didn't already have (mediocre scoring swingmen)....

[Mr. Body]

Am I wrong to think he's more of a mid-range gunner, and that his style isn't a perfect fit with Phoenix?

[Spurs Dynasty 21]

who cares?


another jump shooter on a team that lives and dies by the jump shot

[JamStone]

If Jalen is as out of shape as the Knicks claim, he'll die running up and down the court in the Suns system.

[sandman]

I really thought that TNT had the inside track on signing him.

[Borosai]

So the Suns added another all-offense-no-defense type of player who may take shots away from the other scorers on the team. Not a big deal.

[Zunni]

Jalen Rose is old, and even when he was young, he was selfish. Good signing...for the Spurs.

[T Park]

Borosai,

Where in the , did you get that sig

[Borosai]

The racoon with huge nuts? I don't know...I found it somewhere, but I removed it since I will replace it soon.

[Spurologist]

Another shooter. Nothing new.

[Louie Vega]

Hey Borosai! Where did you get that pic of Pop? His face complexion actually looks alot smoother!. Oh wait that's not......nevermind!

[RC's Boss]

So

[MannyIsGod]

Jalen Rose is their new Tim Thomas. He'll definetly add to their team. They don't need him to play defense, just score.

[Zunni]

Tim Thomas can do everything on a basketball court that Jalen EVER could, and is 2-3 inches taller and LOADS more athletic. They are cut from the same mental bolt of cloth, though: weak.

I was thinking the same thing too. I actually thought he'd be more of a fit in Miami.

Aside from Nash, the Suns seem to prefer those types of players. Their system, while very popular and entertaining, has a lot of flaws.

If Jalen is as out of shape as the Knicks claim, he'll die running up and down the court in the Suns system.

That'll be too funny to watch. Even after he gets in shape, I'm wondering how he'll keep pace with these guys.

While Rose can play the point forward position, I don't seem to recall him making plays for others very much. He WILL fire the rock though.

Last time I played, I found that the way you got into shape was running up and down the court. Could be Rose will get into shape in the Sun's system.

He'll probably be an asset to them off the bench.
