Raja Bell Appreciation Thread

Raja Bell retired from the NBA today. Here's to one of my favorite Suns who always gave it his all and was a huge (and somewhat underrated) part of those mid 2000s teams. We wouldn't have been nearly as good without his D and shooting. All the best to you, man.

Who can read lips? What did Raja say as he was running down the court after hitting that shot (end of video).

Luckily we won game 6 or that would've been the dumbest move ever.

When they were in time out he told Dantoni he wanted the ball and that he would make it. Loved Raja Bell, always hoped hed find his way back someday.

Speaking of that series, I think this was even the same game. LOVED this.

I was just trying to find a picture to make Raj my avatar yesterday, one of my all time favorite Suns.

Wish he'd retired a Phoenix Sun. Loved watching the dude ball. One of my favorite Suns ever, and I don't say that about everyone!

Bravo on an incredible effort to make it to the league--followed by a great career.
