What I've seen is a kid that plays JUST like Stoudamire.

He's tried to find his shot every time he's touched the ball.

He's done very little to show that he's a point guard.

Play.

Amare Stoudemire is pathetic

19 points on horrible shooting, and he's padding his stats against our third string guys (and still struggling). Somebody tell me when I should start being impressed.

the real question is...is Telfair taking away shots and minutes from Shareef?

What's sad is Miles is in and working REALLY hard to get his points. It's obvious he doesn't care that they are getting shelled.

Play.
D'antoni put Richardson back in the game....says alot. Maybe Phoenix doesn't care, but I still favor this lineup to our SORRY backcourt.

You mean he just passes it to the first person he sees like Stoudamire does? Nope. He's actually making sure his guys are in good position before deciding to pass.

He's been in the game for four minutes and he is:

0 of 4 FG
8 of 8 FT

That's a minimum of 8 shots. 8 shots!

And he's not looking to score?

Play.

Telfair shown more tonight than Damon has all year

What's it going to hurt starting this kid. Really. Damon's confidence is shot. He is doing nothing well right now. He's a free agent and wont be back. What good is going to come of starting him.

He's been in the game since halfway through the 3rd quarter.

I dont think this game is indicitive of Stoudemire's game.

Why is Miles running the point...yes, I know I was advocating it last week, but that was because Damon sucks. Miles has had 2 carries in the last 5 minutes...UNGUARDED, just brining the ball up the court.

Do you notice the passing Phoenix does almost every time??
Nash gets rid of the ball as he is running down court..hardly any
dribbling.
They are really good.

I guessed they would score 118,looks like they will score more than that.

Phoenix is classless garbage. Playing their starters when they are up by 23 with less than a minute left?

And they are still looking for threes.
