[QUOTE="ThrottleJunkie, post: 6132209, member: 65178"] I think you guys are digging too deep into this. Just because they run the floor a lot doesn't mean shaq won't succeed. He is being brought there to play defense, not to run the floor and score. He knows he's old and that's the role he's going to have to play. Phoenix has enough talent to score in the open floor, even when outnumbered, and if it gets to half court, then shaq can do what he does best. This will also allow Amare Stoudemire to move to the PF position and he can be a lot more active in the offense, rather than just standing in the middle. Shawn Marion wanted a $20 million contract extention over the next two years, but they can lock up shaq for the same amount of time for the same amount of money, though you'll have to add a year to his contract. They also gave up a guy who never plays. Even if it doesn't work out, they didn't lose anything over it. Marion wanted out and would leave after this season anyways, being that he's a free agent, so why not get something for him while you can? Phoenix can't win a championship with scores like 121-118 every night. This is a good addition for them. I think it's a great trade to get something for a player whom they would lose to free agency at the end of the season anyways. [/QUOTE]
