Really? You and Amp both huh? You guys think higher of the Suns then I do. I would have loved to see Webber and Amare flop off of each other as well. That woulda been great.Originally Posted by Proshares
A healthy 2005 Suns against a healthy 2002 Kings? That is a TOUGH one to pick CP. Remember how much of a beast Amar'e was that year? Or how nothing got past Marion on the boards or on defense? Put Bibby on Nash? Joe Johnson shooting lights out from the 3 point line. That's a real close one. They were still about middle of the pack in defensive rating too.
The Blazers would have beaten those Mavs IMO but NVE would have been a load to handle in that series.
I'm getting time-lines confused now.Originally Posted by Al3xis
Oh and the Nash thing, I meant he wasn't "considered" who he is today, back then. When he was in Dallas, he wasn't hyped much. Flashy, fun to watch, but he wasn't a franchise cornerstone type guy at the time, that's why Dallas let him go. Maybe things would have turned out different if he had stayed in Dallas with Dirk, I dunno.
that was the only time he was hurt?Originally Posted by CP1708

Duncan was hurt in 00, and please notice how I have not brought up the 2000 Spurs one single time. I'm not forgetting a damn thing.

@SHowardCooper Final results: 1. Griffin (590 points). 2. Wall (295). 3. Cousins (81). 4. Fields (62). 5. Neal (19). 6. Monroe (15).
Monroe got shafted...guess the voters didn't watch Fields post-February either.

I dunno......
I could see Divac (Miller wasn't a King until 2003) pulling his old man game and running circles (figuratively speaking) while running the offense thru the high post all over Amar'e.
Webber posting up Marion? I mean Marion is a great defender, but I still think Webb would have had his way.
Christie could possibley contain a young Joe Johnson.
Bibby and Nash, 1 on 1 at the time were somewhat even.
The X-Factors would have been:
Q-Rich, Barbosa, Jim Jackson.
Bobby Jackson, Hedo
The Kings maturity and veternship would have prevailed IMO. But the Kings suck and everyone hates Sacramento, so the Suns win here.
