I was trying to think about who the Heat with Marion reminded me of, then it hit me...

They reminded me of the Heat with Shaq. They suck.

Wow, what a finish by Bass

If Kobe has that surgery and is out for 6 weeks... Lake Show could well miss the playoffs. That'd be an incredible turn-around of things.

Dallas has been dictating that tempo, despite being short-handed, since the mid-1st qtr or so.

Impressive

Phoenix is sleepwalking through this game. Terry ONLY goes right especially when hes pulling up due to where he releases and theyre leading him that way everytime. Its like they dont watch gametape and scout or something. REBOUND THE BALL ONE TIME.

A needed, decent win for Phoenix, with their tough next bunch of games coming up. But, they really had to work for this one against a short-handed Mavericks squad.

What's going to be interesting is if Phoenix gets another defender/shooter at the wing spot. As like I and some others have said, Grant Hill has too much of a role now, added on to what he was doing before (which was already pretty large), and considering his health concern is still looming (as well as it's gone for him), and being 35 years old now.

Also, aside from Amare having less at-the-basket defensive responsibility, in moving to PF, it's not going to be any better for him covering power fowards. Considering he couldn't defend centers effectively before, isn't a consistently good rebounder, and PFs are a quicker and superior class of players than centers.

i understand your hate. because if he wasnt suspended last playoff, probably there is no 2007 championship for spurs.
