Embark on a journey with me, if you will, to a world where the Phoenix Suns ascension is the No. 1 feel-good story in the NBA for the 2020-21 season. They become the new “it” team of the future. Think an even better version of the 2013-14 Suns team that surprised the league by winning 48 games.
It is 5 PM on a beautiful Saturday evening in mid-June, 2021.
As you practically skip from the bed to the shower to your closet, you overhear Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith debating whether LeBron James really has another elite post-season in him in his 18th season.
