Originally posted by OLi_A havent been keeping up with the nba, but i watched the past playoffs a bit and was really impressed by ginobli. quite the effective player when driving to the basket and i reckon another candidate for MVWP. didnt he win the playoffs MVP award?

yeah ginobli is awesome as well. He can score from outside, and make a circus shot look easy. But he's on a team where he doesn't even have to show up to earn another ring.

And I'm not claiming pheonix is gonna be a great team again, I'm just saying nash will be the most critical whitey in the league to his team [again].

Originally posted by jizza you would think so stampy but not really. richardson was a one trick pony hoikin up threes at will. new guy james jones does that job now and with a little less restraint. they brought in raja bell to replace johnson, not as good offensively but a defensive monster. marion and nash will pick up the slack left by amare and really not much lost in the end. look at their box scores they're still droppin 110 plus a game. err i should have started with an executive summary ey nath.

So what happened to Amare?

I have two things that I always found entertaining about rodman:

I was introduced to him via a sports clip show, where they gave stats about how the spurs played when his hair was certain colours. Apparently they were something like 17-4 when it was blue.

Then having him flatten out scottie pippen's nose by throwing him into the support pole for the basket. And having him play with him, so many years later.

Haha Rodman was a legend, and probably one of the best defensive players in the 90's.

Haha yeah he was a wanker, and a bad actor (double team with van damme), but he was great to watch play, he always gave 110%.
