    The one he had against the Sixers was a game-changer.

    The suns' time has passed!

    The only difference between this playoffs and last playoffs will be that the blazers replace the suns!

    This is a wild guess but I see the final standings looking like this:

    Lakers
    Spurs
    Nuggets
    Blazers
    Rockets
    Jazz
    Mavericks
    Hornets

    I think the Hornets will actually struggle more than the Jazz or any other Top 8 team down the stretch.

    Actually, I feel bad for Grant Hill. I think he never passed the 1st round. He deserves better! Maybe he shouldn't have joined the suns!

    Well any dreams or hopes the Suns have, pretty sure Utah will crush those on Saturday.

    Too bad, I really was hoping for PHX to play the Lakers.

    well he did pick the Suns over the Spurs when the Spurs went calling for him 2 years ago. His fate was sealed :D

    Grant Hill should've kept his promise and signed with the Magic.

    Who thinks D'Antoni may have been sitting back, drinking a beer and watching this game?

    You have to think he was smiling to himself a little if he was watching it even though the Knicks are struggling right now.

    Think about the Knicks getting a decent draft pick next year, plus all that cap space for lebron/wade etc.

    D'Antoni will have a good team.

    I'm no longer so sure about this. I don't know if D'Antoni is LeBron's type of coach (or Wade). Both guys appreciate defense. LeBron made a disparaging remark about the Knicks style of play a few weeks back that got me to thinking he isn't going there.

    I've never defended the firing of D'Antoni and the hiring of Terry Porter. Firing a coach and hiring a weaker replacement is dumb. But after it's all said and done, D'Antoni's coaching career may have peaked in Phoenix. We'll see.
