Going back in time 6 years ago... 

Post#1 » by SUNSARETHEBEST » Mon Dec 22, 2008 1:28 am

Do you guys think this same Suns team would be better or worse 6 years ago back in 2002? This goes for only the starting lineup not the bench.

C-Shaq (30 year old Shaq and the most dominant big man in the game)

PF-Amare Stoudemire (19/20 year old Amare, in his rookie season)

SF-Grant Hill/Matt Barnes (30 year old Grant Hill, struggles with injury problems, the Suns starting SF would be second round rookie Matt Barnes)

SG-Jason Richardson (20/21 year old Richardson, in his second year in the league putting up some solid numbers)

PG-Steve Nash (28 year old Nash, a few years before his breakout MVP season, putting up solid numbers and is a solid pg but never was talk about Nash in the hall of fame)

Great bench. 14yr old Robin Lopez, 17yr old Dudley and 16yr old Goran

Kinda summarises this thread imo

Haha yeah forgot about the age difference, but some players did come into the league at 17 but let's just say the Suns starting lineup compared to now.

I'm asking you why you want to know this. It's the past, who cares.

Don't get your panties in a twist sd, no need to call him out...there's been a lot worse threads than this one on here :)

Though yeah...you already have like 5 threads on the first page already SUNS, you trying to break the newby record? I think Maryvale probably has it...

Yeah now that the trade went down I was just curious to see how people thought this same team would have played back than.

Lol Tastic, I'm not calling out, I just don't find there's much to discuss here, and I wanted to know what he was getting at so I can give my 2 cents on the topic, that's all :)
