I remember when Mike D'Antoni had Shawn Marion guarding every damn body.He'd hold it down 1-5.Basically the only guy who played D on that Suns squad.Never got the recognition he deserved because that team had a rep for not playing D.In reality, they were actually middle of the pack.Mainly due to Shawn Marion.Without him, they would've been bottom of the league.I think that had something to do with him wanting out of Phoenix.They had him doing all the strenuous shyt, running like a greyhound, while Nash & Amare got all the glory.
