a really good interview

it’s important to here both sides.

I think the most important thing I think was what he said at the end. He doesn’t care how many wins we get, he wants a team that brings it every night.

I can support that.

Everything must go.

Yup

makes you wonder even more about Amare. That was my first thought.

The Phoenix Whiplash

Yes, that is the sound of going from Suns speed to Spurs speed and then on to Warriors speed in less than a season.

Everything must go.

Let's just trade Nash and Amare for Davis and Biedrins and be done with it

Steve Nash, the league's MVP, is a longhaired Canadian who spoke out against the war in Iraq and reads The Communist Manifesto. Quentin Richardson declared after a game-winning shot that it "was like Hamlet. It was a suspense thriller, and I killed them at the end." Amare Stoudemire, when asked to comment on a 22-point third quarter against the Kings, said, "I've got a tendency to jump over some guys' heads and throw it down."

Haven't listened yet, but

Did D’A say anything about Diaw bringing it every fifth day?

I still like Mike D

I don’t know. If I can press a button to replace Porter by him now, I’d do it.

Maybe that means I’m not qualified to be a Suns fan…

And I think what Mike D said about Marion was quite sensible too.

I love Mike D

But even a fan can recognize his foibles and that yes, he was partly to blame. No one can defend Dan D’Antoni as an assistant coach on a title contender.

Everything must go.

Dude, Terry Porter is the coach now

Seriously? D’Antoni was to blame for what? For Joe Johnson breaking his face? and Robert Horry hip checking Nash? I mean come on, what world do you live in where it could have gone better than the D’Antoni era? Which coach was it that was better? We are talking about one of the most successful Phoenix Suns periods in history, as well as a team that made the NBA a little less boring for a few years.

I didn’t listen to the Sarver interview because I hate Sarver and don’t believe a word out of his cheapskate mouth anyway. He hired a TV Analyst to be a GM. The fact that he doesn’t care about how many wins he gets explains why he’s such a huge moron and makes such awful decisions.

I watched the Knicks tonight on NBA TV. I loved it. I side with Mike D all the way on this.

Also, what does Dan D’Antoni have do with anything? Dan had a lot to do with the development of Barbosa. I can’t see how that makes disallows him from having a coaching job with a title contender?
