My TEAM

Here is the team that has brought so much fun to watch Basket Ball; [b]Phoenix SUNS[/b]

This is the team who has set an eye on the prize; 2007-08 NBA Championship.

Phoenix-SUNS Coach: Mike D'Antoni

D'Antoni is currently head coach of the Phoenix Suns of the National Basketball Association. He has worked for the Phoenix franchise since 2003, and won the NBA Coach of the Year for the 2004-05 season after leading the Suns to a 62-20 record and a trip to the Western Semi Finals.

Let me introduce to its pillars in my own way. These are my comments and not copied from any sites.

- Who is Steve Nash for SUNS?

The best point guard in the game today and who is always hungry to win the games. Look at his new share the ball basket ball game and you almost falls in love for this guys atheletic and swift passes. 2 times MVP and front runner for 3rd.

Strengths: For Suns, he is the main driver and facilitalor. His moves and passes always gives headache for his opponent coaches. The most daring and brave player in crisis.

Weakness: His small body frame and his back problems sometimes becomes a concern

- Who is Amare Stoudemire for SUNS?

Amare who came back from injury back to his original strength of fast roaring finish to the basketball. He is rare player having big frame and can play fast run-a-gun basketball.

Strength: His dunks and driving faults is amazing into the paint. I would say he is a greatest painter of the game. For opponents he is feared for his hunger for the basket. A great finisher of the game.

Weakness: Great defense can stop him. He is beneficiary to Nash's great passes. If Nash goes weak, it affects him most times.

- Who is Raja Bell for SUNS?

Mr. Bell is so famous for being cool and deadly when game hungs both the sides. I still remember him drilling game-tying 3-pointer against Lakers in last seconds.

Strengths: Great defender and 3-point player. He is daring defense is already ready to take hit inside the paint. Great stamina and best fits into Mike D'Antoni's innovative fast break perimeter basketball.

Weakness: Sometimes, bad lucks hits him and his shots goes awary. He cannot dominate the paint.

- Who is Shawn Marion for SUNS?

The Matrix; commonly refered because of his versatile moves and finishing the baskets. Solid basketball player who can play at back and front courts effectively.

Strength: Speed and versatile makes him one of the best rebounding forwards. The great athlete is one side of the SUNS revolving triangle that has other sides Nash and Amare. Its magical to see Nash or Bell tossing the ball in air over the basket and Shawn thumping like a hungry tiger.

Weakness: Sometimes his accuracy fades in the last quarter of the game.

- Who is Leandro Barbosa for SUNS?

The Brazilian blur from Soccer world plays basketball similar to fast running soccer. His speed and stamina gives SUNS an extra-ordinary pace of attack. He is one of the reason why even camera men struggles to chase the run to the basket.He also gives Nash a rest and break by playing at his position.

Strength: Speed and fast pace- 3 pointer shooting star in cluch moments- Perfectly fits into D'Antoni's new way of playig basketball

Weakness: He is not starter of the game and something warms the bench- Few takes, he goes off the focus.
