Phoenix would have to win 32 of its last 42 games just to finish with a .500 record at 41-41.
That's not happening, especially with the Suns (9-31) reeling on a five-game losing skid, after falling to the Clippers 121-111 on Friday.
So how about 31 wins?
It would still be a fifth straight losing season, but a 10-win increase from having the NBA’s worst record of 21-61 last season would be a noticeable improvement.
