basketball

Is it just me or was Miami the worst champion team we've seen in a long, long time? Dwayne Wade carried the team and Shaq was basically a non-factor. The Pistons and Mavericks laid down for the Heat last year and they stepped up and took it from them, straight up.

And now they are favored to repeat? These supposed basketball geniuses aren't doing their homework. This team is old, they had an easy run to the finals, last year. It's definitely going to be harder this year with the emergence of the Cavaliers, Bulls, and Pacers.. not to mention the Pistons.

And now all these teams are trying to change their style, play faster, play smaller, play like the Suns. I think it's great for the league and great for the fans. But I don't think that these other teams have the talent the Suns have to play that style consistently.

This is the year that all Suns have been waiting for. We're all patiently waiting for Amare's knees to recover fully. At the same time we want to watch Nash and the rest of the team play our style and win games and find a defensive balance with offensive juggernaut that exists already.

Hopes are high so the disappointment will be very, very bitter.
