"snatching the ball instead of tipping at it" and I thought i was the only person in the world who noticed that. Can't they start some kind of rebounding drills where yao watches dikembe or something??? "tipping" at the ball makes me sick. if we can get yao to "snatch" the ball and dunk instead of layup...
Steve Nash is an arrogant a-hole!! I can't believe after a loss he says they have all the answers to our team. Oh yeah if you did have all the answers why didn't you win the game? Is he our new coach too? Have you been watching us all year to know we are playing our best bball? Our defense in the playoffs will be even better Steve!
Up until this game they have owned us. He is right, we don't match up well against them and had to play phenomenal to get a must win game against them.
RAJA BELL (on defending McGrady) "I didn't get to defend him as much as I usually do. Anytime he is my assignment, it's really fun to guard him because he is the best of the best." wow raja bell giving t-mac some major major praise
I don't know about that... Phoenix always pwns us. We really don't match up well against them, he's right.
the 2 time MVP is right on this one the record backs him up, don't ROX players say the same thing about our games with Eastern teams? bottom line this is our first win against them in 2 years and 10 different players later.
They were very classy in their comments. I actually like that Suns team. Amare has become more grounded and it's hard to hate nash. But against houston, they can lose everytime. I might root for the Suns in their half of the WC bracket.
well have u tried guarding tmac? but i think he meant "one of the very best" b/c u know he's going against kobe in the playoffs so dont want to give kobe any extra ammo
Some of still reeks of arrogance to me. "They had to have the game", like they would have won if it was just as important to them. "We just wanted the win", like we didn't want it as bad as they did, but if we did, we would have whipped their asses.
Not sure I agree with this. Having that first few playoff games at home is going to be a much needed boost for this team, IMHO. Home court isn't everything, but it is a psychological advantage, especially in the first round.
unfortunately, they can and i would not be surprised if they did. hell, even amare has the shooter's touch now.
amare can't shoot like that every game. trust me. those Js are as inconsistent as rafer. but amare has the dunks to bring up his fg%
