MVP! MVP! MVP!

Anyone leaving Amare out of the mvp conversation is insane. The guy continues to dominate the game.

What an increadible game.

Best thing is everyone has been involved and done good things. Usually you just see 2 or 3 ppl at a time.

Thank you STAT, Shaq, and Nash!!!

The Shaq for Matrix trade is turning out to be brilliant.

KG's the only guy who is big enough and quick enough to guard Amare

Sheed is ok, but he doesn't really stop him, moreso put him off his game

MVP chants!

Great help D by Amare there, making AI change his shot

Really have to watch Smith, he hoists from 25 out

sheed can guard amare

i wonder when teams will figure out that amare ALWAYS drives to his right when he gets it at the top of the key?

a team like the spurs will stop that come playoffs

Just chiming in to say that this has been an amazing game and the Suns are my second favorite team in the NBA. What other team could be down by almost 20 at the half and go into the final 2 minutes with a double digit lead? (besides the warriors ;))

You guys are so fun to watch and the coaching staff has done a GREAT job integrating Shaq into the system.

The problem is that most PFs don't have the lateral quickness to keep up with STAT's drives. I bet that he adds more moves to his left this off season.

I think that's why they do that dbl screen. Because Nash goes left to Shaq's screen and Amare's defender has to go left to compensate for if Shaq gets the ball. That means when Nash goes to Amare the right is open straight away and he doesn't need much time once he bounces the ball.

Amare played a great 2nd half, but...

Steve Nash played like a 2X MVP^99 tonight. He just simply took over tonight.
