    That's how I read this bit of information.

    I don't think it is emblishing to say the suns are now the frontrunners to miss the playoffs . . . they are in 9th place and just lost their all star for the rest of the regular season.

    This would be equvilaent of Roy going down for the Blazers.

    Phoenix is definitely done now - they're going to have to look to Shaq to do a lot more, and I don't think he's capable of doing it on a nightly basis anymore.

    Why the hell is there an accento over the "e" in Amare?

    It doesn't actually change the pronunciation, does it?

    Ought we pronounce it "ah-mah-RAY"?

    If it isn't functional, and it's not part of the English language, why is it there?

    If my name were Thømas Jones, but I went by Tøm, but pronounce it "Thomas" and "Tom", respectively, should I expect to have the (entirely cosmetic) alternate letter inserted?

    What about an umlaut over a "z"?

    It's ridiculous.

    Maybe he needs some Buck Williams googles?
