Phoenix Suns

[omad]

NO.
though im not sure if josh howard is bigger than shawn marrion but im pretty sure he's stronger and more physical/rugged than marion. it is not marion's strength to overpower someone... iya effectiveness nag depend sa iya 3pointers ug explosiveness...

correct..
Marion doesn't have a low post game. he only thrives on offensive rebounds/put-backs, occasional assist from Nash on their high screen and roll, jumpshots and 3 pointers. that's Marion's game if you've been watching him intently. that's why they brand the Sun's team as "live by the jumper, die by the jumper" 'coz it's only Barbosa and Nash who can penetrate.

I agree to Omad and iamdede, mao gyud nay dinuwaan ni marion finese, but naa sab point si at8n 1981, marion should have drive to the basket more often, coz walay shot blocker ang mavs, plus marion is a high leaper nga for sure foul ra gyud kutob ang dallas.

phoenix win, as of what ive said rajah bell is the difference

No shotblocker, yes... but the Mavs are already using Desagana Diop to play defense along with Dirk, that's why it's kinda hard for the Suns to keep it coming from the inside and it is enough for that intimidating presence in the middle. The SUns get points mainly from the outside and of course the run-n-gun play, they can get points in the paint only if there's a pick or a fantastic drive to the basket. But eventhough their inside points is not enough to comprehend their style, you can't blame them for having a heart when they play the game.

but they can bait Diop to defend the suns' offensive player to stay beyond the arc, ayt?! even though it's ZONE DEFENSE is being implemented in the nba today, there's a certain rule if u don't stay close enough to the offensive player then u will be assessed a 3-second defensive technical foul.....I would still insist that Shawn Marion should be aggressive for him to score 20+pts, grab 15+rebounds for them to win a game, eventually the series because I certainly don't believe in living by the jumper, that's stupid....Dallas made adjustments to win 2 straight games, so y can't they?!

AND I'm pretty sure Josh Howard(210lbs) ain't stronger than Shawn Marion (228lbs)..If I'm not mistaken more lbs of pure muscle is basically stronger....perfect description for Josh Howard is "scrappy" & Shawn Marion "more on finesse"/"streetball"...

Profanities on posts

theres no excuses, phoenix played their style, balance ila duwa when comes to scoring. it just happens ni explode si dirk og 50 pts.

I wont be surprised if the mavs will close out the suns in 6.

doesnt mean nga na MVP ka guaransheed na nga championship team naka. daghan pud na MVP nga walay title namely

karl malone - 2 time mvp
charles barkley
allen iverson
kevin garnett
steve nash - 2 time

kanang mvp honors pahumot ra na sa ngalan sa player or lets say pasikat ra na. kita mo sa nawng ni nash pag dawat sa trophy mora feel niya dili siya deserving, off course ingon ana gyud iya feeling coz hes a team player not a lacoste type of player namely t mac, kobe, vince, jordan, lebron basta daghan ............nag una una man gud si jordan daghan na hinoon nisonod.

fan sad ko ni jordan pero lacoste pud na siya.

bai naa kay point, pero wala man gud maanad si marion og mga power moves, kinahanglan pa niya practison og maayo. like for example right now in desperate times na ang phoenix. nya kung osbon niya iya dinuwaan,dili unya mo click.

sayangan pud ko sa leaping abiity ni marion kay taas kaayo siya ambak, pero wala kaayo niya magamit sa iya offensive nga style, kay mostly sa defense ra niya gigamit iya leaping ability with his quickness. ang iyang offense nag agad ra siya pirmi ni nash kundi ni diaw. kung walay maayo mopasa ni marion wala pud siyay ayo.

remember mo sa phoenix sauna nga naa si amare, marion, hardaway og marbury pero dili sila ingon ani ka explosive kung i compara nimo sila sa karon. its bec. si marbury dili kaayo maayo mohatag og bola ni amare og marion. mao kung mosolod man gani sila sa playoffs mostly 8th spot gyud sila. pero tan awa pag abot ni nash, last year best record sila sa NBA though short handed lang kay tan awon pud nimo ila opponent Spurs. game 5 ra sila kutob. dili kaayo dagko og points si nash, pero maayo kaayo siya motan aw og tao labi na ni amare, last year unstopable kaayo siya, nalupig lang sila sa spurs kay si marion as usual maayo lang sa reg. season inig abot sa playoffs hopas.

hes(marion) norming last year mga 7 to 9 points a game sa last years west finals, the guys aver. a 19 pts and 10 rebs. sa reg. season, pero mao ra na iya mahatag sa west finals.

but this year ni step up iya game, maayo ron iya dinuwaan pero mao lagi wala pud si amare. mo maayo lang pud lagi kung wala si amare,

and ang style pud ni marion pag shoot sa basket lain kaayo, bati kaayo tan awon.
