Worthy of Your Attention
Suns @ Celtics
Phoenix is in the midst of a pretty hellacious road trip - Detroit, Boston, Philly, New Jersey - and is coming off a tough loss against the Pistons. (If you listen closely, you can hear D’Antoni still whining about the officiating.)
Boston, meanwhile, basically has first place and home court throughout the postseason on lock.
It’s not a stretch to say that the Suns are the more desperate ballclub coming into tonight’s game, and I expect it to show.
Most eyes will be on the KG/Amare matchup tonight, and rightfully so. I find it particularly amusing that Stephon Marbury is largely responsible for having turned this into one of the most intriguing rivarlies in the entire League. And people say that Steph is irrelevant. Nonsense!

TAD, Bron is not going to match-up with CP3=MVP. Since when does Stephon matter any more? And will Shaq sit on Perk or Big Baby?

What was wrong with Mario Elie??

TADOne says:
ESPN should have shown Cavs/Hornets. Chris Paul MVP. Clutch drive and dish to West for the win, right after Bron put Cavs up by 1. Just…..wow.

I’m not watching the Knicks-Heat game, but I saw the boxscore and they are going in OT. Two bad teams that don’t want to lose.
And Ricky Davis puts up some nice stats in this game, so maybe Shaq got him fired up?

Boston vs Pheonix, nba finals suns in 7, But Boston will show up. Sorry lakers.

hursty says:
well joe, the suns got their sh!t handed back to them in a paper bag. It even had a name on it ‘well done PHX, you managed a total of 13 rebounds between an all nba 1st teamer last year and a 14 time all star’. Thats not championship calibre play. they lost by 20.

mat, the whole game was cr@p. the suns had no rythm slow or quick, the C’s totally dismatled nash and diaw with spot up shooters, divers and flares off the dribble and shaq was extra lethargic.
