The Suns are the best bad team in the NBA. They are a promise and a threat. They are close to relevance but miles away from a championship.
Their biggest victory of the season must come when the trade deadline expires on Feb. 23, when the organization must confront two heavy questions:

The answers are maybe, and yes.
“When I took this job, I vowed that I was going to be aggressive,” Suns General Manager Ryan McDonough said.
