Re: Stoudemire out four months
[ QUOTE ]
Stoudemire, who turns 23 next month, signed a five-year, $73 million contract extension last week, the maximum allowed under the NBA's collective bargaining agreement with the players union. [/ QUOTE ] niiiiiice, he inks, then gets a 4 month paid vacation. at least he'll be rested for the playoffs.

<drops him in my Yahoo player ranking>
The bigger question is, how huge is this for the Suns. I don't think they go over .500 for those 4 months.

Re: Stoudemire out four months
The Suns are so screwed. So they traded away basically all of their three point shooting and full court athleticism, and now they've lost the guy who was all set to be the best player in the league. Game plan change, at least now we can see if D'Antoni can coach, and it gives Nash a chance to show that he's an MVP caliber player without an entire team of allstar caliber athletes revolving around him. Seems strange to say this, but a blow like this might hurt their playoff chances. Not that it matters, San Antonio is looking like they could win 70 games if they put in the effort, and they are going to steamroll through the playoffs convincingly. Kurt Thomas and Raja Bell were not going to be the big factors the Suns were hoping for.

Re: Stoudemire out four months
I don't really have a favorite NBA team. I like certain players instead. Having lived in MN for the past 8 years I really got to like Garnett. After watching Phoenix last year in the playoffs and moving to AZ two months ago, I was really looking forward to seeing him play. He is a very explosive/exciting player. I guess that wont happen now.

Re: Stoudemire out four months
The suns will be fine, they will win enough games to win their division which guarentees them a 2 or 3 seed as long as Stoudemire comes back off his injury ok. Remember last year they didnt have Joe Johnson for most of the series against the Spurs and Q Rich did nothing. They will be better matched up against the spurs this year then last with the added players Raja Bell and K Thomas. All those games last year were close they can play with the Spurs.

Re: Stoudemire out four months
ugh, looking at that sorry ass division, they may just take it. My sleeper pick is Golden State or LAL though.
