We should be thankful that Shawn Marion is back in the fold, playing hard and with the trade rumors a thing of the past. Who knows for sure what is going on with Marion, but from the outside it appears all that is behind him and the Phoenix Suns. The goal of winning a championship […]

Well, at least, that’s what Peter Vecsey says. I swear, I didn’t know this guy was still covering the NBA.
He’s never gotten anything correct, which worries me about this article which includes some rumormill about Shawn Marion and the Phoenix Suns.
I believe at one point in his writing career, Patrick Ewing was going to be […]

After the big start to the preseason with all the praises for Grant Hill, Shawn Marion, Shawn Marks and D.J. Strawberry, I was so pumped that I jumped at the chance to watch Saturday’s game live.
On a side note, the Official Phoenix Suns Ticket Exchange is a sweet place to find tickets to games. Not […]

The Phoenix Suns opened the 2007-08 season with an exhibition game in Sacramento.
The first quarter score: 29-18
What did you expect? They are already running and it’s early in October. I can already feel the excitement building inside of me for NBA season. Probably doesn’t help that the Diamondbacks lost Game 1 and cast a shadow […]

Phoenix Suns training camp finished earlier this week and according to Steve Kerr’s blog, it was a huge success with some good stories.
The biggest one in my eyes in Shawn Marion, who scored 30 points and grabbed 10 boards in their intra-squad scrimmage Saturday. He played with a ton of energy and enjoyed being around […]

Paul Coro wrote a chipper little report from camp this morning, reporting that Shawn Marion is all smiles and having fun getting back into shape. Steve Kerr reportedly had a great talk with him about the issues he had with the “team”.
And Mike D’Antoni seemed okay despite revealing that “It is not dead that he […]

I wrote a long season preview yesterday in anticipation of training camp starting down in Tucson today. It was full of hope, full of excitement, full of good things about the growth of players on the team and their chances for a title. I was pretty pumped with what I saw in our potential and […]

I’ve had a change of heart overnight. Not sure if it was the lack of sleep, or the tossing and turning I did, but I realized something.
Shawn Marion is family.
At least, as much of a family member that a professional sports player can be to a city. He’s been here for eight years now and […]

If you don’t know this already, I absolutely love Bill Simmons. His views and opinions on the NBA are a major reason I wish he was commissioner instead of David Stern. He gets it. Gets how it should be, how it was and what makes it fun and interesting.
On the heels of that, his article […]

I will admit this right now. If Shawn Marion gets traded before the season starts, there will be some serious pain felt over here. Especially with the way things have gone down.
Sean Deveney’s article quotes Marion as saying “I wanted to retire a Phoenix Sun,” he said. “That would be nice. I think everyone would […]
