Going into last night’s game at the Golden State Warriors, if a soothsayer had somehow accurately predicted that the Suns would follow up their previous night’s loss at Portland with a blowout loss in Oakland, not a single Suns fan would have batted an eye.
Not only would it have been expected based on the tremendous disparity in talent, but the Warriors had won 18 straight over Phoenix, the longest streak of one team by another in all four major professional sports at the time.
But then the unthinkable happened: the young Phoenix Suns pulled off the biggest regular season upset since…well, they beat the Milwaukee Bucks just a week ago.
