OT Amar'e Stoudemire retires

[Chris Craig]

I remember watching that series feeling like our guys were boys playing with men. Our guys were so young and hadn't started bulking up yet, the Suns were gigantic compared to them.

Sad part is the Suns weren't even that good.

They were a WCF team...

I loved watching him on those Nash Suns teams. Wish injuries didn't derail him.

Good riddance. That picture above reminds of why I can't stand him. I'll never forget him "adjusting" his goggles like that when he elbowed Batum in his surgically repaired shoulder.

I loved watching Amare and Nash work.
Nash would work his way down low, like just about only Nash could do, then switch direction and leave a hard dribble off the floor for Amare to get and throw it down.

When he went to NY, the first thought I had was, man he is going to miss Nash.
He did for sure.

The Nash/Amare, was a rare duo no doubt, but too similiar and not as good as Stockton/Malone. Anytime I think of the first set, I cant help but immediately think of the latter.

Idk, do you guys think he would be retired? Like Roy he never really did anything in the playoffs, and I think jersey retirements should be left to guys like those, not to mention the fact he lied and fucked the team over. Idk if I would even put him on a "ring of honor" thing, but I would Roy with that.

Oh. Hell. No.

There you go, invoke the master with the assist. Stockton has the highest A/M of all time at 2.39. Nash is only 3rd with 1.57
a bit back of Magic Johnson with 1.77.

Compare that with todays best, Chris Paul with 1.35
