Ode to Shawn Marion

Shawn Marion, don't turn your back on Phoenix!

Shawn Marion, don't turn your back on Phoenix! via inside.nikebasketball.com

Why do we love you so much, Shawn

Is it your massive throw down alley-oop jams that raise the roof off your house on Jefferson

It is not your lock down perimeter defense against anyone from Chris Paul to Dirk Nowitzki

Your lovable smile and always friendly attitude surely made some friends

But mostly Shawn, we love you because YOU PLAYED HARD EVERY GAME!!!

Is it too much to ask players making huge bank to put everything aside when they step on the court

To forget about their contract squabbles and just flat out ball

For most the answer is yes

For The Matrix the answer is NEVER

Come back to Phoenix, Shawn and cement your place in the Ring of Honor

Finish your career where it started and you will be THE MAN

is there any way you can email this to him?

i’d say tweet the site url to him but i don’t want him to read some of the comments that are opposed to him coming back haha

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."

Gambo said Cleveland might have interest too

How do we get him to choose us over them?

Let the fools have their tartar sauce!

From CAVS VIA TWITTER...

PDcavsinsiderChanning— Frye said visit to Cleveland went well, but no deal close yet. Also, sources say Shawn Marion is nearing a deal but not with Cavs

HOPE ITS US!.

Have a feeling it's not us :(

Kerr and Marion don’t seem to have any sort of working relationship :(

In the face of the UNRELENTING OPTIMISM of P-Stan...

…the Suns tweeps, and BSOTS Nation, I’m teetering on the brink of capitulating and getting my Matrix on. Mostly because it looks like fun. I love writing contests, and I love a good Twitter movement.

And because Marion for basically the same price as Leandro Barbosa is a hell of a bargain and an ample substitute for the soon-to-be-departed Grant Hill (UNCONFIRMED, but if you were him what would you do?).

How many times are you going to post this?

Does it make you feel better?
