IMO these should be the Suns' starting lineup this coming season

PG Marbury
SG Johnson
SF Marion
PF Stoudamire (he will be the surprise of this team)
C Tsakalidis

I think this team will win around 35-40 games in the west and be the 10th seed.

What do you guys think?

Agreed, though there is no 10th seed in the playoffs.....

Towards the end of the season for sure that will be the starting 5, but I don't think Amare will be a starter right off the bat. He'll probably work his way into the starting 5 by season's end, sort of like Chicago's rookies did last year.

If Colangelo knows what's good for him and the team, he'll start Amare.

JarvisHayes24

Amare can get minutes without starting you know. He would probably foul out in the 1st quarter if he was starting on opening day.

I think the starting 5 in the beginning of the year will be

1. Stephon Marbury
2. Joe Johnson
3. Shawn Marion
4. Scott Williams
5. Jake Tskadalidis

Towards the end

1. Starbury
2. Johnson
3. The Matrix
4. Amare
5. Jake

If Gugliotta is healthy, he will start.

PhatDaddy3100

HA, a healthy Gugliotta? Like that will happen. Will he might be healthy, but it will only be for like 10 games. So, i would not be dependent on him.

I think this might be Googs last year if he is still hurt............

<<<D>>>

Suns will depend on youth and their young veterans....

I'm a real big fan of Marion, and I think he will be the cornerstone of the Suns organization, he's very athletic and active, he plays very big for his size and position, he can Block and hit the the boards with the best of them. I really like his game.

The Suns have an outstanding draft pick in Amare Stoudamire, he's going to bring in a strong inside presence for the Suns, he has great potential and will be physical enough to bang with the other 4's & 5's in the league. He's young and he will learn fast. His skills and talent alone will carry him in the right direction

StarBury - He's as stable as they come, He'll provide leadership on the floor, a scoring threat from the outside and off the penetration, look for him to have a big year.

Player to watch....
Googs - now or never!! needs to improved and remain injury free


All and all, the Suns will put up a fight for the 7th or 8th seed, anything can happen, Consistancy and injuries will be the key for them all year.
