Its easy to say that now. I wonder if Phoenix was winning right now 90-54 , if you would be making a thread of the opposite nature ? I mean didn't they look pretty good defeating Boston the other night ? They are just two games removed from a monster trade that shook up their roster. Its gonna take some time to adjust ... Don't count Shaq or Phoenix out quite yet. One game in March don't mean shit towards best of Sevens in May and June. You should know that better than anyone Rob. Come on !!

Great trade. They will be a force to be reckoned with once they gel as a team.

I bashed this trade right away

totally slowed down their offense

I know they will hit an easy part of the schedule and rattle off 8 in a row, but come playoff time they are nothing

So far they played 3 playoff teams at home and are 1 -2 with Shaq starting...

I don't think it would matter if they had him or not this year. However it will guarantee them sliding into mediocrity faster.

Lets let the trade play its course and see what happens. 3 games in boys and they played 3 of the top 5 teams in the league in a three game five day stretch.

phx wasn't goin to win anything even without shaq. Now they signed a player who does not fit in D'Antoni's system, which will take even longer to gel.

Phoenix has one shot. To pull an '05 Miami and just get hot at the right time.

Bad they looked....WOW

The Suns look like a pack of Cheetahs with a Buffalo in their way.

Shaq might drop dead of a heart attack.

He looks bad....Time to hang them up Shaq...
