Nash is killing the Suns by not setting up shaq more even tho shaq is shooting 60% for the season. Instead, nash and richardson usually take the most shots which doesn't cause foul trouble and doesn't make things easier for anyone else like it does when defenses collapse on shaq. Its no coincidence shaq's 'resurgence' came when nash was out because two of the games he got the ball non-stop.

Phoenix is a useless place for Shaq to play.

haven't been watching the suns too often this season but they ain't going nowhere if they switch to a feed-shaq offense.

The suns need to rebuild badly. Like jjsole said, Pheonix is no place for Shaq. Suns are done for the season anyways.

no one wants that ridiculous contract he has.

Great shot by Kobe. Spurs should realize how all those missed free throws screwed them.

lol at Kevin Harlan calling that regular old dunk by Odom a "tomahawk sledgehammer?"

That was the problem...not too many wide-eyed gm's glowing at the thought of getting him anymore. Except steve kerr, trying to push the suns over the edge, has instead pushed them over the ledge.

They weren't going anywhere before Shaq either although I disagree with a lot of decisions they have made recently like getting rid of Diaw and Bell.

In Shaq's defense he has been the most consistent player on the Suns. I think Amare is awesome but he is rarely motivated to play defense, a mark of all D'Antoni players. The D matters most when you want to win a championship.

I just hope they show up tonight to make this yet another exciting game. I don't know how much more TV I can watch but if its interesting, I'll be watching.

I like watching Nash play so much but he is absolutely invisible on defence and that bothers me.

yay lakers win, but it wasn't a great win. It was a good game to watch though. I hope Phoenix can eek out a win here against the Cavs. I'll be watching, but I doubt Suns will win this one. They're having a major identity issue.

thats not anything new, thats his style of play. but for a nash run offense to be successful, they have to be absolutely on point on every offensive position...i don't know if they still have what it takes to get back to that.

Wow did you see how high LeBron got on that block?!@@ Barbosa even looked back to find him and still got pinned.

I missed the beginning of the quarter until then so didn't see the spin.

who's 6'8, 280?

Umm the king

link, not unless his crown weighs 30lbs. I've heard exaggerations at 260 before, but 280 is a delusional.

I've heard commentators even say 270 but yes he's not 280 but we both knew who he was talking about.

The same type of commentators that like to say Barkley was only 6'4...the drama queens of the media world.

How tall do you think Barkley was?
