The fact that Phoenix is struggling doesn't come as much of a surprise to me. I, like most people, questioned what they were trying to accomplish with the Shaq trade and I think they'll end up regretting dealing Marion.

The Phoenix comment is very valid. I think I'm more surprised the Suns haven't been able to at least compete as well. But Marion wasn't going to bring in a championship, so I commend Kerr for making an all-in gamble.

Good article. I don't like the Mavs against any of the big contenders in the West. It doesn't look like anyone can match up with the Lakers right now except maybe the Spurs.

Nice article, and don't worry.. you weren't the only one that thought the Rockets couldn't pull it off without Yao Ming. They have definitely proved to be a much stronger team than people thought.
