When you put the Pheonix Suns next to the Portland Trail Blazers SOMETHING is wrong.



Happy New Year!
They definitely deserve it...they won a league high 13 games in a row and without Greg Oden...that is impressive
i think thats good for them. they just need to keep it up
U stole my hat boy!
Ever since they had "the fight" with the throwing each other around and the chair throwing these guys have realized just how good they can be. While in Portland we realize we have a long way to go, potentially we can be a league power and deserve the accolades that go along with it.
they deserve it



13 games without Oden-hey what else can you say?
I'm confused. They have won 13 straight games, and that's hard to do, but how does a team go from bad to good like that? That's like a bi-polar person's mood swings! I love you! I hate you! No, wait, what?
They do deserve it but why does every one believe that Oden will become the next Shaq, David Robinson, Wilt, or even Ewing!! Oden is over hyped and overrated as far as I know the best player on that team is Mr. Brandon Roy last year's Rookie Of the Year!!!
I think it's rather generous they got lucky on some of the wins. I don't think that they're a top 5 team in the league they won games against some weak opponents, I think that they'll have a tougher time on the road as well. I see them dropping too the middle of the pack.

Do you refuse to watch NBA games and visit nba.com after the UNFAIR suspension of Amare & Diaw j

David Stern is getting what he deserves. Usa Today says that game 1 of the NBA Western Conference finals between the Spurs and Jazz drew a 3.8 overnight rating. That's down 43% from the game in that time slot last year.



promised to laugh out loud at David Stern, knowing that his decision would cripple the Suns chances of winning the series, and knowing that sucky TV ratings would follow.



Ha, ha, ha.



Now we know why he was so pissy during the Dan Patrick interview. He knew full well what corner he had just painted himself into.

what do you think??

That irritated me but the true reason i dont watch is all the fun teams got eliminated ex GS, and PHX.. Now we have guys that cant make shots in the EAST and a Spurs team that has the personality of a mute.

oye



the rule is:



you can not leave the bench when there's a fight



they both left the bench



therefore it was an obvious suspension.



jeez....i was rooting for the Spurs too...but that doesn't give anybody an excuse to be so biased/ignorant that we can't objectively look at the rules



be mad all you want.....but be mad at the rule...not the fact that it was enforced
No, get over it.
Well, it did tick me off cause that was why they lost the series but I still love b-ball and would never stop watching nba for something.
am i imagining it or are suns fans the most pathetic crybabies ever??? somebody help me
I hate NBA basketball and not surprised when The USA gets beat by other countries. I love the way Nash plays and believe he is one of the smartest players in the game. That being said I believe he made a firm push look ten times worse by jumping out of bounds and throwing his hands in the air. I didn't feel this way until the 4th or 5th time I saw it. If you don't agree with me, please watch it again. I hate actors in sports and feel because of this it was Nash that hurt the Suns. The rule is not new and players have to control themselves.
Dude, get off the ledge.....don't jump! The Suns' style of play is great and entertaining in the regular season, but when it comes to the playoffs.....defense, defense, defense. They couldn't stop anyone. As great of a point guard Steve Nash is, he is a defensive liability. These are guys who have no killer instinct and can't win the big games. Now really look at the Spurs team and their most recent history. Can you honestly say that they shouldn't have won that series? It had absolutely nothing to do with the suspensions! The Suns could have won game 5, but again where was the defense and the killer will to win? They had all of the motivation in the world to pull out the victory but they couldn't do it. Now for all of the whining and complaining that the rule isn't fair.....come on now. No one else complains when it happens to them, take it like men and move on. They all knew the rules and there are no exceptions, even for pseudo-superstars. David Stern would have had all kinds of trouble if he didn't do what he did. If you are a real hoop fan then nothing would ever keep you from watching anyone (except the WNBA) play ball. Now wipe away all of your tears and just hope for the best for the Suns next season.
Nope... cuz the only people at fault for the suspension are AMARE and DIAW..



RULES ARE RULES and unfortunatly they broke them...

In NBA.com box scores, what does the category "+/-" mean?

In NBA.com box scores, what does the category "+/-" mean?nba gear





Neither of the above answers is correct. The plus/minus category is very similar to the one used for years in hockey.



Long used by coaches, it has nothing to do with individual numbers. It is tied exclusively to a team's performance. While a player is on the floor, the official scorer records the score differential in terms of a gain (plus) or loss (minus). For example, if Dick Nibbler enters the game with the score tied, and leaves with his team ahead by 7, he gets a plus 7. Conversely, if he enters with his team ahead by 14, and leaves with a 6-point lead, he gets a minus-8. These figures are compiled for every rotation of every player in the game. The totals are presented in a game and season cumulative format, and players are ranked based on their per-minute figure for the year.



Players who are weak on defense tend to have low plus/minus totals. Offensive stars (such as Kobe) who also play great defense will have a higher rating. Also, if Kobe is on the floor with 4 teammates who suck on defense, his rating will go down. The plus/minus rating is directly related to how well the 5 players on the floor perform as a team.

assist to turnover ratio.



example: Jason Kidd has 12 assist and 3 turnovers against who ever. His +/- will be 9.
i think its an efficiency category.. if its positive it means he was efficient.. and vice versa..
its called the lenovo stat and is used to determine the effectivity of a player in combination with his teammates on the court.

New nba.com box score system?

ok the new box score on nba.com is really confusing me. it has this new addition which looks like a "+/-" and im assuming its fantasy value but then it has a weird way of calculating the value. after the suns/heat game, nash scores 30 dishes out 8 assists and shoots way over 50% and he ends up with +1 whereas grant hill scores like 4, shoots 33% but gets a +11. explanation?



New nba.com box score system?nba salary cap





It shows the power of teamwork. It's a way of showing the best-engineered/best combination of players on the court. The Lenovo Stat is a plus/minus statistic that looks at the point differential when players are both in and out of the game, to see how the team performs with various combinations. The Lenovo Stat can look at a variety of combinations including the best two player, three player and even five player combinations for each game.



lets say, a player enters the court and his team is trailing by ten points. then leaves the game when his team is trailing by 20 points, he will get minus ten (-10) in his "+/-". but if he leaves the court when his team leads by 10. that player will receive plus 20 (+20).



i think it is similar to that "+/-" stat in NHL where if a player scores a goal, the offensive players that are inside the ice rink will get plus 1, while the defensive players will get minus 1

It's just a value that shows how effective that player is when they're in the game. I.e. when Grant Hill was in the game the Suns outscored the other team by 11.
