An outmatched Phoenix Suns team battled the best team in the league, the Milwaukee Bucks, in a game that started at noon Arizona time on Super Bowl Sunday. Well, “battled” is a strong word. There was never a question who was going to win this one from the opening tip.
First off, why in the world is the NBA playing games on Super Bowl Sunday? Granted, the times don’t directly compete with the most-watched television event of the year, but it feels like a good day to skip on the calendar.
A large chunk of the Phoenix Suns actually did skip it.
