Intriguing Team

More Sports Guy on the Eagles

You need to be able to throw the ball, Rex. You need to make big plays. You need to be able to play from behind. The rules reward a team that does those three things. That's what makes Philly so intriguing. Like Steve Nash's Suns, they don't have a big guy, they can't protect the rim and they need to make 3-pointers (or, in this case, connect on some long plays) to have a chance. Nash's Suns know if their 3s aren't falling, they will lose. McNabb's Eagles know if their long passes aren't connecting, they will lose. But if either team gets hot, look out.
