    18 minutes played tonight, 25 points and 77% shooting. Can redd realistically help the suns into the playoffs and potentially win a series? Or is he simply too much of a defensive liability at his position with his weak knee? I didn't watch the game tonight, commentary would be appreciated.

    A break out night for him, I hope he can sustain some consistency like this. Would add another piece to a potentially fun and exciting cinderella squad.

    Agree with all of it. They don't seem to be below-average anywhere, and I think Gentry is a really good fit for a squad like this. Very under-valued team.

    being realistic I would say they have a really tough battle with Portland and Utah just to sneak into the playoffs then they would be really pushing it to sniff around an upset against the Spurs / Thunder.

    No...Just too old of a team to beat out some of the younger and talented squads in the west with the condensed season

    michael redd isn't going to shoot 77% every night but he's a hell of a player when he's healthy

    i don't think he ever got the respect he deserved in milwaukee, he was always a class act and fun to watch

    Phoenix is competitive and team really not young
    I doubt they can get past 1st round though

    I think the short season favors older teams. Less games, less wear, and they knew how to prep for the season. Strong inside, strong outside, good leadership and chemistry. Could be worse.
