Shaq is just a role player now. Like in the past, the success of Phoenix lies with Nash.

Stoudemire is playing his natural position and showing his skills. I'd still have traded him (and his knee) to MN for Garnett, but he is a good player. Teams that win have 3 good scorers. Phoenix is playing well, but you've got Nash, Stoudemire, and ?. One of the back-up singers, like Barbosa, Bell, or Hill, will need to put points on the board. Shaq will only help if he gets the kind of calls he got in LA. He is, as Wooden said years ago, just a fat dunker. At this stage he lacks mobility, so Nash is going to have to create his offense for him. It isn't like Shaq's going to make any jump shots anytime soon. Anyway, IMHO, the Suns are playing great now because of Stoudemire's play.

Stoudemire is now playing in power forward position and doing a damn fine job. This is thanks to the Big Cactus taking over at center. This team can finally beat the spurs in the playoffs
