by Chris TomassonFiled under: Bulls, Celtics, Clippers, Hawks, Heat, Hornets, Jazz, Knicks, Lakers, Magic, Mavericks, Nuggets, Rockets, Spurs, Suns, Timberwolves, Trail Blazers, Warriors, Eastern, Western, NBA All-Star Game, Thunder Denver coach George Karl likes to say each All-Star squad should have 15 players, rather than 12. It's a great idea for the West this season, with there about to be some serious snubs. As for the East, 10 seems a better number this season in a conference that after the top teams has as much depth as the local park's kiddie pool. Perhaps the East should concede two spots to the West. Throw ...

Alvin Gentry: Right Now, Amar’e Stoudemire Is MVP Amare Stoudemire, Kevin Garnett, LeBron James, Manu Ginobili, NBA MVP, paul pierce, Ray Allen, Suns News, Tim Duncan, Tony Parker | (0)
by Brett PollakoffFiled under: Knicks, Suns, NBA AwardsPHOENIX -- Amar'e Stoudemire made his return to Phoenix on Friday as a member of the opposing team for the first time since bolting for a max deal with the Knicks last summer. Stoudemire has been playing as well as he did with the Suns -- if not better -- and has unquestionably been the centerpiece of the Knicks' turnaround so far this season. Stoudemire's play hasn't gone unnoticed by his former head coach Alvin Gentry. And in fact, before the teams hit the court, Gentry went as far as to say that Amar'e ...

by Chris TomassonFiled under: Cavaliers, Nuggets, Spurs, Suns, FIBA, USA Basketball, The BonusInjuries limited Phoenix guard Leandro Barbosa to a career-low 44 games and to his worse season in five years. His Suns have advanced deep into the playoffs. But Barbosa said there's no doubt he will play for his native Brazil in this summer's World Championships in Turkey. "I'm expecting a lot from our country,'' Barbosa, who averaged 9.5 points for the Suns in a season that included missing nearly two months following January wrist surgery, said in an interview with FanHouse.

by Chris TomassonFiled under: Spurs, Suns, NBA PlayoffsSAN ANTONIO -- In San Antonio, they remember the Alamo. But they don't remember many seasons like this one. Guard Manu Ginobili said something Monday that hasn't been heard much here the past dozen years. "We were not ever really a championship-caliber team,'' he said one day after the Spurs' season ended with a 4-0 sweep by Phoenix in a West semifinal. The Spurs went 50-32 but it was their worst record since the disastrous 20-62 injury-riddled campaign of 1996-97, which enabled them to accumulate enough ping-pong balls to win the lottery and get forward Tim ...

Grant Hill Won’t Opt Out This Summer, Wants to Retire With Suns Alvin Gentry, Grant Hill, Manu Ginobili, Steve Kerr, Suns News | (0)
by Chris TomassonFiled under: Spurs, Suns, NBA Playoffs, NBA RumorsSAN ANTONIO -- Forward Grant Hill didn't first suit up for Phoenix until he was 35. But could he end up playing more games for the Suns than with any other team? It's not out of the question. In an interview with FanHouse before Friday's Game 3 of West semifinal at San Antonio, Hill, 37, said he won't opt out of his contract this summer and he might just play until he's 40. "Oh yeah,'' Hill, who is making $3 million this season and has a player option next season for $3.24 million, said ...
