After winning their seventh game in a row last night, I think it is safe to say the Shaquille O'Neal trade is working out for the Phoenix Suns.
The trade has been analyzed every which way, with proponents and opponents either praising or criticizing Steve Kerr for making such a bold move. Despite all of this analysis, the bottom line seems obvious to me: no matter how great a player Shawn Marion might be, trading for Shaq allows the Suns to compete and win against teams that like to ugly the game up with physical defense and post play, teams such as San Antonio and Dallas, who have combined to eliminate the Suns from the playoffs the past three years.
Good to see Shaq, one of my favorite players, experiencing a second renaissance in Phoenix.
