The Phoenix Suns showed they could beat the NBA's best in the Orlando Bubble.
Finished 8-0 with wins over six playoff teams. Earned league-wide respect.
The players bonded and got to know each other better.
The Suns may have spent more time together in a month's time in Orlando than during the 65 games they played prior to NBA Commissioner Adam Silver shutting the season down March 11 after Utah Jazz All-Star Rudy Gobert tested positive for COVID-19.
Beyond that, Phoenix took advantage of the opportunity to showcase its basketball program. In doing so, the Suns have started changing how they're perceived in the league, proved their style of play works and that they're building something special.
