    Don't get me wrong ; I realize that Steve Nash is vital for this team ; but eberybody was raving so much about Barbosa, Amare and Marion...where have they been? show up guys. They have lost some winnable games without Nash.

    At least the less talented and depleted Celtics tried and played hard during their 18 game losing streak.

    Barbo, Stat and Matrix are just waiting for Nah's return ; lame. And d'Anthony coach of the year in 2005? he should be thanking Nash everyday....

    Yes and no - Amare is playing hard, but this proves it's a team effort out there... Marion has gotten too used to Nash feeding him buckets, but at least he's pounding the glass hard... Barbosa is not a true PG and I wish the rest of the league would realize that - he's a great shooting guard/combo guard... but why couldn't they pull the trigger on Steve Blake or something before the Nuggets snatched him up?

    Yes the Suns suck w/out Nash.

    But so do the Spurs w/out Duncan and Mavs w/out Dirt.

    ppl find it hard to beleive that a little white boy like nash is this important. He's top 5 player in the league.

    True, but the Suns are just giving up without Nash; at least try!

    I don't follow your logic here. Why would you want the rest of the league to realize he is not a true PG? How would that help the Suns?

    Surely the Suns would rather the rest of the league be deluded about what Barbosa's skills are? If opponents do not understand his game, then I would think they would not defend him as well.

    they love barbosa, they won't trade him.

    I guess they have all their eggs in one basket, Nash.

    Would we have lost to hawks w/out Duncan? yeah, we could lose that game even with Duncan.

    We could have won the game without Duncan, providing we still had Rasho or Nazr inside.

    But with this lineup, no.

    Um - how about all analysts then? I mean, it doesn't matter who I say it is - local writers, scouts, national media... they're all blinded by Barbosa's speed and ignore his inability to run an offense or finish at the rim.

    Are you arguing it would help the Suns if scouts and media had an accurate read on his skills? If not, then why do you wish it would change?

    Fact is, despite having two "supposedly" all stars in Amare and Marion, and Coach of the Year D'Antoni, the Suns are a truckload of without Nash. Amare and Marion are the biggest pieces of there.

    Yes, yes my spurs are also a truckload of minus the Big 3.
