Phoenix Suns call up F Taylor Griffin

Why did they send him to the D-league for two games? Who did he make mad in management..

#48 I noticed that too ahahaha

Hey Carlos....Boston fans are not bandwagon fans, since the majority of them come from the the New England area, they are loyal fans of the Hub teams. So shut your mouth since you don't know what the hell you are talking about!

Excuse me, anybody who thinks scalabrine is solid is sadly mistaken, that uncoordiated dufus is a liability anytime he is on the floor...absolutely worthless that guy...

TJ Styles = ~~~

I agree to post 41. If the suns released Marion for Garnett then that could have been the best trade for the suns. Shaq will never fit to the run and gun game but KG sure can handle it. Imagine Ama're and KG deep. You got the inpenetrable defense and unstoppable offense!
At this point No Big man no championship!
Nash ages and Ama're will lose his game because he keeps on depending on steve's playmaking.
Step up Stat! We need u to be in good shape as u were 3 seasons ago

Go SUNS

The Suns are magnets for the lame duck brothers.

Balling Brothers: Blake Griffin, Brook Lopez, Jason Collins
Bummer Brothers: Taylor Griffin, Robin Lopez, Jaron Collins.

Case point.

C Bear, I think if the two play head to head, the advantage goes to Taylor. He'll have more to prove and lil' bro' won't want to show him up too much.

TJ, i hope you @#$%in get hit by a car.

i,m better then that bum

scalabrine is a good sold nba player he plays his role 4 the team . he will never start but a great bench player thats what championship teams need.

I apologize, I guess I would be the one that ultimately turned the conversation to the Boston bench, but I was simply stating what I thought the Suns should do. I suggested a trade with Boston, and someone else started talking about the Boston bench.

I disagree with the people upset with the Marion for Shaq and the Bell and Diaw for Richardson trades. I think they were good moves that have been used wrong. I think the coaches screwed up with Shaq. Shaq should never have been on the court at the same time as Nash. Shaq should have been the go-to guy when Nash sat.

As my post that degenerated into a discussion of the Boston bench pointed out, I am all for trading Nash at this point. He is a great player, but I think its time for Phoenix to get a younger point guard that will be around for more of their core's careers. They have to lock up Stoudemire in a contract, and make sure they hang on to Barbossa and Richardson, then trade Nash for a young, defensive-minded point guard, and look to pick up a strong post center. The Suns already have a quality bench, all they are missing is a strong center and a leader that will push the players to play defense.

Now I remember why I hate Boston fans........because they are bandwagon fans and they think everything revolves around their teams.

How the hell did Scalabrine get into a discussion about the Taylor Griffin, who BTW should be in the D-League.

Are the Suns trying to abandon their fanbase?

They should have kept D'Antoni, not traded for Shaq, kept Diaw and Bell.

Steve Kerr is a worse GM than John Paxson, I wonder what they have in common?

crap kerr he must ejected as team manager he did wrong in suns rooster,blown marion,diaw,bell ,jones and coach D'antoni!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish the Knicks would bring Isaiah Thomas back so Steve Kerr wasn't the worst GM anymore! There are alot of teams cutting payroll but this is terrible. At this point Nash needs to go and the Suns need to start rebuilding with young players. We had a chance to win a title but the Suns wouldn't trade Marion for Garnett. Its all been downhill since then. The "Big Cactus" was a BIG JOKE in Phx and a waste of time.

Steve Kerr is awesome. Kerr fo 3!! 3 bad signings...

He is so fine

Who was the guy who turned a Taylor Griffin article into a debate about the Celtics bench? Haha. I love Yahoo! Sports. XD

Suns rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am not denying that Scalabrine will probably not see much playing time next year on the Celtics. I realize that Scalabrine is probably not up to par with a lot of the players on one of the elite 4 teams in the NBA. Sure, Scalabrine may be the 12th man for Boston...and he may be the 8th man in New York or the 4th man in Washington. Some players may thrive in one teams environment and not in another's.

I cannot comment on where exactly in the rotation I think Scalabrine is. I have never seen Shelden Williams play. All I can do is look at his stats and guess. I watched most of Boston's games last year, but I do not recall Walker standing out to me. Maybe I just wasn't paying enough attention, but he averaged 7:24 over 29 games, so I may have blinked a couple times and missed him. That doesn't mean anything, he may be a good player that I simply didn't see, but because I have not seen him play, I cannot say whether I think Scalabrine will be before or after them in the rotation.

LMAO..........Did TJ Styles just write a dissertation?

TJ Styles,

I had no idea that you had so much love for a 12th man on a roster. The only reason Scalabrine played in the 2009 NBA playoffs was because of all the injuries that the Celtics had, such as KG and Perkins. Do you actually think Doc River is going to give this bum of an NBA player any playing time? Shelden Williams is better and will get more playing time than Scalabrine. The only thing Scalabrine can do is shoot the three. Look at the Celtics bench for the upcoming season. He will not get any playing time and will not make the playoff roster. Bill Walker is better and deserves more playing time than Scalabrine. Walker is only in his second year and will continue to improve. SERIOUSLY, THIS IS BRIAN SCALABRINE YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!

Celtics Bench
-Big Baby
-Sheed
-House
-Daniels
-Williams
-Allen
-Bill Walker
-JR Giddens
-Scalabrine

Did Brandon Jennings tell you that, Yusef? Did he play against Scalabrine and call him overrated and hype?

Why do I think that Brian Scalabrine was left off the roster for the 2008 playoffs that included Kevin Garnett, PJ Brown, Kendrick Perkins, Leon Powe, Glen Davis, and Scot Pollard? How many power forwards and centers do you need on one team? With PJ Brown, they did not need Scalabrine to back up Perkins, and with Brown sharing some minutes backing up Garnett, with Powe having an amazing year, and Davis starting to play better, there just wasn't room for Scalabrine on the roster. I like how you neglected to mention that he WAS on the 2009 playoff roster, and averaged 20 minutes a game through last seasons' playoff run. All this while recovering from multiple concussions.

I am not saying Scalabrine is a great player. I am not saying that he is the next Michael Jordan. I am saying that the qualities he has makes him a valuable commodity at the small forward position.
