  1. I'm reading two different things on Twitter. Some are saying fired, others saying he walked. Go figure.
  2. Hmm... http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nba--suns-in-trade-talks-for-rudy-gay-165005609.html
  3. How has Nash changed his game? All we want him to do is shoot more, to actually try and play off of the two superstar teammates he has never had before, and he's still trying to average 10 APG (since his return, he has) and shoot less than he did last season, when he was really the only guy that mattered in Phoenix. Kobe is coming off his worst statistical year...and yet, it's not significant because he's having one of the best years he's ever had now. Are you telling me that Nash shouldn't be taking all of those wide-open shots he has? I know you watch the games, at least some of them, and there are many times that Nash does absolutely nothing when he doesn't have the ball. I know guys like LeBron and Kobe are like that, sometimes, when they kick the ball out to the other side of the court, but they aren't exactly in Nash's position, either. As a 50/40/90 shooter, and the third-best player on this team, Nash should be salivating over all of the shots he could have...but instead, we're forced into this system that changes Kobe and Dwight more than it would Nash, and that makes zero sense to me.
  4. Guess that .500 record was a bit too disappointing for the Bucks? They just fired a decent defensive coach.
  5. C - Sacre PF - Artest SF - Kobe SG - Morris or Meeks PG - Nash Jamison possibly backing up Sacre? I really have no idea. Great time to sign Pavel Podkolzin.

  16. Wait...Garnett finally picking on someone his own size?!?!
  17. Sadly, Gortat is averaging three points less...but on three shots less. Around a 54% FG. Nash and Dwight haven't been running P&R hardly at all, so I'm wondering if Nash even has any interest in doing so with ANYONE on this team, or if this is D'Antoni's call.
  18. Perfect [expletive]ing timing, also. @ Houston @ San Antonio vs. Oklahoma City Goooooooooooooooo Kobe. #HereHeComesKareem
  19. Wow...I figured he tore the ACL, but to be out 14-18 months? Skins fans on Twitter were hoping it wouldn't be 8-12 months...yikes.
  20. Blake does suck, but he's better than any other PG we have not named Nash. Morris had his handful of games where he looked like a good backup, and now it's just a mess with him.
  21. Damn man. Dwight, Nash and Gasol all missing time due to injuries. Blake has been out forever. Hill was hurt. Thank God for Kobe.
  22. The offense is the problem when we're leaning on Kobe to drop 30+ a night and play 40+ minutes. Doesn't matter if we're 6th offensively, we're having to rely on Kobe to dig us out of holes OR keep us on top of teams during games. Nash has had the ball in his hands his entire career...and so has Howard and Kobe. One is 39 years old and just came off of his worst statistical season in years. The other two...one has five championships as a primary option and main facilitator, the other has an NBA Finals appearance as THE GUY (the only guy) in an offense built specifically for a big man's dominance down low. What else does Nash do, then? He shoots. Very well. Why isn't he shooting at all? He's too focused on running his offense here, and that's what's ruining us. It's hurting our team in that we wear down quicker, and Kobe having to do FAR too much is hurting him back on the defensive end late in games, and he's the guy that roams to help Nash and Gasol, two awful defenders. If Nash can't adjust just slightly, to two superstar players who are CLEARLY better than he is...then he's not that great of a player after all. This isn't his team...never was, never will be. If he was the Nash of 2005, and we had a ton of shooters, and Kobe was either super-young or well out of his prime...then okay, let's go with it...but not now.
