Whatever chance the Hornets had of bucking the trend and actually winning a road game evaporated real quick at the beginning of the fourth quarter of last night’s Game 6. With Chris Paul on the bench and New Orleans already down by 15, Manu Ginobili hit back-to-back threes to bring the San Antonio lead […]

Shawn Marion just can’t catch a break, can he? (Ignore the fleet of white luxury cars and the fact that he bankrolls about $17 million per year and work with us.) After being largely underrated and underappreciated his entire career, The Matrix couldn’t even get his just due on the same […]

Shawn Marion won’t be going anywhere if the rest of the Suns can help it. Doing the anti-Deron Williams, Steve Nash told the East Valley Tribune, “We have a great team, we’re very close to winning a championship and we want everyone on board. All his teammates love him.” The paper said Nash, several other […]
