NBA hiatus comes at better time for Phoenix Suns than most

Although there is really never a good time for what is happening right now, if you were to focus solely on the basketball impact it has on the Phoenix Suns, you would find it is not quite as large as you would expect.

The final game played before the postponement was a loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, another team aiming for the final playoff spot in the West. Even with two unexpected wins prior, that loss had pretty much ended any realistic hope the Phoenix Suns had of a miraculous playoff run.

With the playoffs out of the picture, outside of development, the team was essentially playing for ping pong balls at that point.
