Folks...I've been reading all the blogs from the past few weeks and must chime in and express my own POV.  I definately don't agree with the stupid idea of scrapping the team and starting over.  I feel we can be competitive and even have a run as long as we do a few necessary things, such as:

I think keeping Nash, Hill and Amar'e is a must.  How else can we be competitive?  Now if we want to win and have a shot to advance in the plays, I say let's go out and get Chandler...if his toe can hold up.  I mean, if he can play effectively, imagine the possibilities with Nash creating plays and leading the team.  Forget about it....it would be exciting basketball....and competitive.  Also, I believe we have some of the other pieces already in place.  We should definately keep Barbosa...and I'd like to see us keep Richardson and Barnes.  Richardson can play well in this up-tempo offense and is a legitamate scoring threat.  Not to mention he can shoot the 3-pointer.  And, let's not forget he was once the slam-dunk champion of the league.  What I'm saying is that he can put up points when his game is on.  When it's not, well we have Amar'e, Hill, Nash and hopefully Chandler.  I mean, I think this would be a very competitive and potent starting five. 

Now the bench with the young guys is pretty good to.  Dragic and Lopez showed signs of improvement towards the end of last season.  Lopez can play defense, rebound the ball and can pick and roll to the basket.  If we get Chandler, that can only help Lopez's game.  Dragic reportedly has been hitting the weightroom and is stronger now going into his second season.  He also showed signs at the end of last season of perhaps being a Nash protege. Dragic and Lopez should be better this season.   We also have Tucker and Dudley who I believe can both help coming off the bench.  They just need some playing time.  I'm excited to see what rookies Clark and Griffin can do.  Especially Clark.   I think he will be good at PF giving Amar'e some rest and also developing his game.  If we keep Barnes, which I hope we do, he'll give our young second squad some veteran leadership.  He too can shoot the 3-ball and can play some defense as well.  And, let's not forget the Brazilian Blurr.  Barbosa can put up twenty points off the bench just as fast as anyone in the league.  I mean he's up there with J.R. Smith and Jason Terry.  Oh, and I forgot Amundson.  That guys a warrior.  He'll play well and be valuable for us off the bench as well.  He has shown he can rebound and score off of rebounds as well. 

Okay, so our second unit can be competetive and exciting as well.  To me, it's simple....keep all the guys I mentioned above....get rid of what's left over, and get Chandler...or another center(possibley Camby) with similar game.  I mean guys, if we do all these things....we can be competitve, make a run, and be exciting.  This team I mention above is built for speed and scoring.  We should definately be the number one scoring team in the league.  I mean,  we were last season with Amar'e out at the end and the whole bad start with trying to change styles.  I mean, we are who we are.  Forget defense.  If we're outscoring everyone, who care's about defense?  The defination of winning is the team that has the most points at the end of the game....DAH.  Let's go and kick some.....We can do it!!!!!  Hopefully the team's owner and management will feel the same way.  That's it from me...hope someone agrees with my humble opinions.  I'm looking forward to reading any feedback.....Keep it coming Sun's fans!
