Pregame podcast #17 - Alvin and the Clipmunks

After an extended hiatus caused by the celestial astrophysics not providing enough time in my day, the Pregame Podcast returns with a BIG BANG.

Clipper Steve from Clips Nation just happens to be the perfect guy to discuss not only the upcoming back-to-back set with the Clippers, but all of the other Suns-related drama.

If there's anyone that knows a thing or two about NBA drama, it's Clipper Steve.

We discussed the following (and of course wandered a bit into a few other topics):

  • Alvin Gentry and his time coaching the Clippers
  • Eric Gordon and what a special young player he is
  • Trades, trades, and more trades
  • The upcoming Suns/Clippers games

As always, it was a great pleasure talking to Steve, who is one of the most knowledgeable and best bloggers anywhere.

You might also notice better quality audio on this one. I've upgraded the technology used from recording from digital recorder next to a speaker phone to recorded conference call using free conference call dot com.

And don't miss the special introduction from David Stern with a warning for all us bloggers ...

I'm setting the bar high.

So, I know this is probably not the right thing to do, but after tempering expectations all freaking season long, here’s where I’m at:

The players got what they wanted. The fans got what they wanted. Sarver and Kerr are feasting on crow. The Suns had better be nothing short of sensational over these last 31 games and a double dose of Clipper beatdown a la what they did the to Kings a few weeks ago is in order.

The Suns have HUGE games against the Celtics and Lakers (twice!) in the next couple of weeks. If they plan to make some noise in the post-season, I believe these are what they call statement opportunities. So, if they are indeed putting the petal back to the metal, I want the rest of the league to be roadkill in their path.

Caveat...

Oh, and I know I can’t really breathe easy and commit to this team until the trade deadline passes, but I’m very optimistic about the next couple of games.

i'm feeling that

Thing is, i felt the same way right after the J-Rich trade, and after the Dallas beatdown. So i’m reserving my exitement until I see something solid
