The past month has been a depressing one for Phoenix Suns players, coaches and fans. They are currently on a nine-game losing streak and there is little optimism surrounding the outlook of the team. Instead of focusing on the sad state of the squad today, I am going to take a moment to look back at one of the most successful seasons in franchise history.
The Suns were a team in transition back in 1992. They were coming off of 53 regular-season wins and a second-round playoff loss to the Portland Trail Blazers the year before. Head coach Cotton Fitzsimmons retired following the 1991-92 campaign, and he was succeeded by assistant Paul Westphal in the offseason.
