Phoenix Suns fans have watched the league’s worst defense for long enough. Lack of talent, lack of discipline and lack of effort have all been hallmarks of a losing team.
And losing they’ve certainly done.
I mean, you can’t celebrate your 50th season as a franchise without getting down by 50-plus in a game at least once, can you?
Over the last three of years of losing at a 73% clip, the Suns have sunk from the league’s fourth-winningest franchise all the way down to seventh. Think about that — it’s only taken three seasons OUT OF 50 to plummet the team’s reputation to depths never before experienced in its storied history.
