Marion was the one covering Tony Parker throughout most of last year's playoffs, after TP opened Nash a new one. He did a fine job of it, too.Quote:

Neither he, nor (more surprisingly) Barbosa, was filling the bill against TP.Quote:

Raja Bell isn't that great lateraly, not very strong, or all that athletic. He's pretty mediocre defensively.
Wow thats so severely harsh one might think your Kobe fan element is pushing that take. If he's not strong, Kobe must be a twig.Quote:

shaq laying the body on TP a few times can slow TP down.
parker is one of those guys who's toughness should always be tested. he's seriously one of the best players in the nba when hes comfortable and he's on. gotta kick his ass a little.
btw, raja bell is a very good perimeter defender.
History is not going to look back fondly on this trade.
Remember, the Suns were in 1st place when they made this deal, and now, if they miss the playoffs altogether?
Steve Kerr might as well move to Honduras.
