I’m feeling more optimistic this week. Funny how going 3-0 will change your mindset and your perspective. Sure, the Phoenix Suns did what they were supposed to do. Perhaps that is where the optimism comes from...because they did what they were supposed to do!
That hasn’t been the case this season for Phoenix. They have 7 losses this season to teams under .500. No team in the Western Conference playoff race has more. You never know what to expect from this team, what version will hit the hardwood, and what the end result will be. You uncomfortably settle in, ride the barrel, and get pitted.
