An Appreciation of Shawn Marion's Phoenix Suns Career

Shawn Marion announced his retirement yesterday - let's look back at those incredible days he spent in a Suns uniform.

If you asked me to rank the most underappreciated Phoenix Suns stars over the course of franchise history, Shawn Marion would be at or near the top of the list. Lost in the heaps of praise thrown at Steve Nash and Amar'e Stoudemire, people tend to forget about the basketball brilliance that was Shawn Marion.
