lakers first round now



i like how you guys spent the first few pages of your gamethread dogging the mavs and dirk. and now a stupid comment like this one. you know, the Dirk Mavs teams have accomplished more than the Nash Suns teams have. 1 finals appearance to none. besides, if Nash were still here in dallas you guys would be talkign **** about him. Hell, im sure you guys thought marbury was the man and Nash was just some wild-ass, bad-haired, good white player while in dallas.

STAT felt him and Shaq should have gotten more touches in the 4th quarter.

Once on the floor, Stoudemire missed a 9-foot jumper and a dunk before finally ending a 7:51 Suns scoring drought with a dunk to get the Suns within one point

All I know is that we better hope for no more than 1 sunday day game in a postseason series. If we have two, we'll basically start 0-2 needing 4 wins from the other games.

Is Amare's opinion justified that he and Shaq should have gotten more touches in the 4th quarter?

It would have been nice if Amare didn't miss three crucial free throws in the last couple minutes of the game...something that frustrated me cuz he's been so damn good at the line.

I hope those 3 sprained fingers on his right hand don't seriously cause a decline in his game.

Him and Nash really need to carry this team through the rest of the season with help from Grant and Shaq.

But it's mainly them...I hope Amare will be OK.

i watched the game again and nash tried to ran the pick n roll at least 3 times on the last 5 min stretch but couldnt give the ball to amare. nash shots arent falling in and he started looking for amare but for some reason, couldnt get the ball to him.

The Mavs played some great pick n' roll defense down the stretch. It looked like when Nash first came over to the Suns and he seemed to have this mental block against J-Kidd.

I thought that's the situation where Grant Hill would really help us by creating his own shot, but he never seemed to get the ball down the stretch. Maybe he will be more aggressive when he gets fully back in the flow.

i stand by any comments i made, the 2 and 12 against + 500 mavs dont scare me

and now a stupid comment like this one.
dirk = choke, the suns choked, so the suns pulled a mavs - sounds right to me

you know, the Dirk Mavs teams have accomplished more than the Nash Suns teams have. 1 finals appearance to none.
the mavs have also been eliminated in the first round more times than the suns with nash too, mavs 1 suns 0 in the choke sweepstakes. Congrats on makeing the finals and choking once, well done! :clap: its amazing what a team can acomplish in a year where the suns lost amare kurt thomas and then raja bell tore his calf during the series

besides, if Nash were still here in dallas you guys would be talkign **** about him.
probably because he never played MVP caliber basketball in dallas

Hell, im sure you guys thought marbury was the man
for sure, and it is widely considered that marburys career best was when he was in phoenix, so why wouldnt we?


suns pulled a suns.
you cant get rid of the choker tag that easy, suns pulled a mavs

Preach it SDU! lol On another note, If Amare wanted the ball then why wasn't he getting position and calling for it. Standing straight up watching the game from the top of the key will only equal you passing it to another player who is working harder or you dribbling too much and getting it stripped. My Tivo call is that Amare wasn't that interested. Just an armchair coach calling it as i see it.
