The big homie Shaq may be the best center in the Western Conference once again. He had 26 and 10 for the Suns tonight, who beat the Hawks 107-102. Get this though: over the past two months, Big Daddy's averaged 21 and 10. O'Neal was even 12-12 from the free throw line prior to today's 6-11 performance. I can't stand Yao, so I wouldn't mind seeing Shaq get the start in the All-Star game, and he should, even despite missing a handful of games. Shaq playing like this can make Phoenix a legit contender. Currently, the Suns are 22-13. Although many think the window's closed on the Suns, I like their offensive threat of Steve Nash, Jason Richardson, Amare Stoudemire, and The Diesel. Plus, head coach Terry Porter's emphasis on defense is showing.
