New Player Based Fan here!!! Hope to be welcomed! 

Post#1 » by BigDaddyPR » Thu Feb 7, 2008 5:13 pm

Well im going to be here a lot from now on so i wanted to be clear with everybody from the start...to be completely honest... Im obviously not a Phoenix fan, yeah im a player based fan, i was a phoenix fan when barkley was in town.. and i was rooting for Phoenix last year when Miami was eliminated in the first round, and honestly felt like last year was your year.

i can answer any question about any games in that Barkley/Phonix era. I can tell you about how the Suns came back to beat the lakers after being down 0-2 in a 5 games series... and to add some details.. how majerle hit a fadeaway jumper, almost an impossible shot with under a minute left in game 5 to force OT and end up wining the series.

I also remember when Barkley was isolated in the final seconds against the Sonics or Spurs right now i cant remember well, but i do remember Barkley hitting the jumper from the top of the key to close out that series...

Also Barkley scoring 50+ in the opening game of the playoffs vs Run TMC's Golden State Warriors.(Run TMC was the Combo of T Tim Hardaway M Mitch Richmond C Chris Mullin)

I can remind you of bad times too... like the barkley guarantee.. lol.. vs houston, also when danny ainge hit mario ellie right in his grill with an inbound pass when he was celebrating in the closing seconds of the closing game when the rockets eliminated the suns.... The famous John Paxson 3 in the Finals after the suns made it a series by taking 2 out of 3 in Chicago... i know my Suns stuff.. like i said i was a fan when Barkley was here...

The KJ consecutive FT's during the finals, i can talk about Richard Dumas rookie season, Oliver Miller incredible wingspan, i mean i know everything in that era... so. just showing you all my Suns resume.. lol..

Ive always liked the Suns, i love to watch them play like many general fans, but my team was the Heat because shaq was there at first... but the team grew on me in this last 3 seasons. Wade is a humble superstar, Riley is a tough but loyal coach/gm, Im not to happy with the "cheap" owners but they did bring Shaq and gave him a 100mil contract...

I do dislike some of the Heat fans that wanted Shaq out after shaq made that franchise legit, by bringing them the first ring but i still love the Heat and i will continue to follow them, They are going to be excitig to watch with the matrix, wade, and a top pick like Rose beasy or jordan..BUT right now its al about the Suns..

To me this was a dream come true.. Shaq getting another chance to finish his career on top, playing in a team that compliments his strenghts, and with a smart top pg in Nash. This is a dream come true for me honestly.

Did he? I didn't even know that. I'm a bad Suns fan. :(

I never watched basketball as a kid and it's so hard to find videos of old games.

Anyway, welcome.
