Just when I thought the Phoenix Suns’ season was essentially over, well, they proved me wrong once again. While the patient may be on life support, it’s still a bit too early to start planning the funeral. The Suns’ win against Chicago coupled with Dallas’ loss to Indiana on Wednesday put the Suns back in the Play-In race at 10th.
I’m sure there are plenty of fans out there thinking, “So what? They’ll blow it before the end of the season.”
Well, with the toughest remaining strength of schedule in the NBA, that may be true but if you haven’t been watching the team lately then you might not be aware that they’ve actually seemed to finally wake up and realize that maybe playing some defense might matter.
