Rising Sun

So, the Phoenix Suns are amazing. I watched the first quarter of their game last night before I fell asleep. (I hate how work gets in the way of watching sporting events, I also hate how the East Coast is so far away from the West Coast)

Who would have ever thought a team that passed the ball, shot the ball well, and made crisp cuts to the basketbal would be successful?

I HATE typical NBA basketball. I hate isolation plays. The NBA is basically a bastardized version of basketball where they stand around waiting to see if someone is going to dunk it, or if the offense is going to be so disgustingly stagnant that someone who has been dribbling meaninglessly for the last 14 seconds jacks up a shot to beat the 24 second clock. Now, because its the NBA, they end up dunking it a lot, and often making those shots. But that's beside the point. Why not play the game the way its meant to be played?
