Trouble in the bubble. The Suns haven’t found it, they’ve caused it, and it’s not recency bias to say this is their most exciting stretch of basketball in years.
They are 3-0 in the NBA’s playoff “seeding” schedule. For most of the other 21 teams there would be no reason for scheduling parties (virtual ones, of course) to celebrate. But it’s a big deal in Phoenix.
The Suns won three consecutive games just one time in the first 65 games this season, and that was in the second week of the season. They did it only four times in the previous four seasons.
