Now to be honest, I wasn't really into all the hype about the Suns last season, and all the Nash MVP talk...

But after watching them (and him) in the playoffs, it became quite apparent that it was deserved..

Same early on this season.. I just got done watching them drop 122 on the lakers in the lakers home opener MINUS Amare Stoudemire, Joe Johnson, and Q-RICH..

The other night they took a superior talented MAVERICKS team to double overtime..

It seems like it doesn't matter who they plug in there in PHX along as Nash is running the PG..

When the Suns go with Barbosa with the same lineup, the team has fallen apart.. But Nash is running them like last season ..

James Jones is playing the Joe Johnson role and is doing great in it..

I must also give props to that coach, although they play ZERO defense and will not win anything.. That offense is extremely exciting to watch, and he has done well with getting all the new players to adapt to his up and down/fastbreak style..
 
Seriously, 17 assist!!! That is pretty amazing...maybe he IS the difference maker and not Amare. Interesting.
 
Yea, nash is pretty good. 17 assists tonight,


but if lebron gets another 27/8/7 year and makes the playoffs i dont see how he doesnt get mvp.
 
The thing about the suns is, they don't need interior scoring at all.. There is not another team like that...

All they need is rebounding and shot blocking big men that can get them out on the break..

Nash penetration is the best in the league.. You don't know if he is going to pullup, take an off balanced circus shot, or kick it out..

All they need is Two long range shooters on the perimeter, and a energy guy that can get you 20 like Marion, who will get on the offensive glass, and will out rebound most centers in this league..

There is truly not another team like them...
 
Nash is still a good player, but it's going to be hard for him to get back that MVP title, if his team doesn't win. I am not sure how many games these guys can win without their main guy, Amare Stoudamire.

The Sun's chance was last year, this year I don't see them standing a chance.
