steve kerr has been Frickin' up ever since he took the helm @ the front office. this shit sucks. i really hope it does not happen.
I can't believe that either D'Antoni or Nash would get on board with this--it would amount to an admission on their part that their style of play can't win a championship, and I don't think that's been established yet.
Maybe not in the minds of basketball novices.
Dude, for once just don't embarass yourself.
And plaese, plaese, no "Steve Kerr knows what it takes to win a championship!" foolishness.
Well, this will hasten the Heat rebuild. Wade and Marion are two nice pieces to start with.
if nothing else, this trade will most def improve the Heat.
Although, it doesn't look like they'd be able to sneak into the 8th seed with only 9 wins on the books at this point. They need to make some legit moves in the off season or rebuilt around Marion in the draft.

In the (L)eastern conference no team is too shitty to have some playoff hopes at midseason, but at the very least maybe the Heat can put together some wins and start to feel like there is something to look forward to next season. The Suns, on the other hand will be fascinating to watch. Am I the only one that gets the feeling that they are about to unravel into a totally entertaining mess? When teams win it covers up a lot of internal problems, but when teams lose those problems all seem to become public. If it turns out that Marion really was a glue player that was key to Phoenix's success, than we should see some fireworks when the team loses cohesiveness and direction.
So is dude good to go and he's just been birddoggin' it or what? Can this cat last 'til mid-June? I know he did w/ mixed success two years ago but two years is a long time for that guy. :shrug:
i don't think marion had much voice in this trade-- this was a front office move, not @ the request of marion, who hasn't mentioned his off-season trade remarks since the season started.

and mylat-- this will be very bad.
All right, let's see... In my opinion the Suns have weathered much worse in the past few years.

Oh, I'm sure it was a front-office move, but Marion certainly helped the process along with his repeated grumblings of "I want to be The Man" b/w "Trade me." I think he's a very good player, but he's also in the best possible system for him, and he's about to leave that system for one that won't take nearly as much advantage of his skills.

Loved him as a player, but the dude was chronically ass-hurt.
It's almost funny what his grumblings have gotten him--a far weaker team, whose style of play will not be tailored to his strengths, but where he is even more likely to be eclipsed by one of the league's true stars.

Why did you even bother writing in to ask Steven what he eats for breakfast??
Follish.
The Bynum question was aight.
Hilarious!

DETAILS!
That is some next level stannery!

Dare I say, the Messiah has taken it to the Pariah!
I was too caught off guard to get all the details but it went something like this:
Q: "Yuki, writing in from West Hollywood...'Stephen A., what do you eat for breakfast'?
A: WHAT KIND OF A STUPID QUESTION IS THAT?? I'm not telling you what I eat for breakfast!!"
He'll have to chime in on the Bynum question, but he did get a legit answer.
"What do you eat for breakfast, dog?"
OH SHIT!! Is that shit recorded somewhere???!! I gave it a try on my lunch break with a bogus ass question. I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED.
Dude, that is obviously fake--a real Shaq blazer has, like, seven to eight buttons.
Good call.
Bynum > Shaq right now.
Stephen A. DID say "the basketball scientist". I think that's where I lost it and the rest got fuzzy!
He called you "Yuki," though.
haha. All good. I'll put my pronunciation in there next time.
Them dudes get a bajillion emails. I'm sure the b'kfast silliness is what got yours read. Hey, he called you the Scientist. PROPS.

i want to throw my computer through the window.
Let's see how it goes.....

You're about to find out. Hope you didn't have grand expectations for the Suns this year.
Also, cosignature with those who say Marion's stock is about to plummet. Dude didn't realize what a good situation he was in.
and mylat-- this will be very bad.

Didn't like Amare's shadow? Try DWade's...
