Here is the Roster from the 2004-2005 Suns Roster
C-Amare Stoudamire
Pf-Shawn Marion
Sf-Quentin Richardson
Sg-Joe Johnson
Pg-Steve Nash
Bench:
C-Steven Hunter
F-Walter McCarty
F-Jim Jackson
G-Leandro Barbosa
G-Smush Parker
C-Jake Voshkul
F-Bo Outlaw
Here is our PENDING roster if healthy
G-Lin/Davis
SG-Fields/Shump
SF-Melo/JR
PF-STAT/Novak/Jorts
C- Tyson/ Jefferies/Jorts
I only ask this question becasue it was brought up on the Mike Francesa show today. I was kind of interested when he mentioned it. I do believe he X-factor however is Tyson and the all around improved defense. A lot of people regarded that Suns team as one of the best teams of the past decade to not win a championship.
Also take a look at Barbosa on that team; can Shump or JR be that premier scorer off the bench?
Our depth is without a doubt 10 times better than that team.
Lin= Nash
Fields= Joe Johnson before he was Joe Johnson
Melo= Shawn Marion when he was in the talks for MVP
Stat=STAT
Tyson= The missing key to why he didn't win in Phoniex
Bench
Davis= way better than any backup or starter before lin even at half strength
Shump= Will play well with Davis and no more point guard duties for him
JR= Will be explosive off the bench and can drop 20 at any given night
Novak= will be amazing espicially with shump, JR, Davis driving to the basket
Jefferies= Defense, Hustle, Muscle, Charges
I'm not saying that this team is any way shape or form like that team, just relaying a message that was expressed on WFAN radio show. Callers phoned in to say how they can see comparisons.
