The Phoenix Suns have got off to a promising start in preseason play. The result against the Los Angeles Lakers didn't matter - although to beat them is always nice - as much as having a group that actually cared on the court did. This team may surprise a few people this coming season, and it will be as a result of their newfound defensive identity if they can pick up some unexpected wins.
Dillon Brooks has been huge in that regard already, and it is clear that the roster has more depth than when Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal were in town.
