The mantra of this franchise in 2019 has become “never too high, never too low,” and that is true in losses as with wins, even if no one wants to buy into moral victories.
So while a 123-115 loss to the Western Conference-leading Lakers isn’t going to make anyone in the Suns’ locker room celebrate, it was a noticeably more positive vibe after this loss than after Utah or Miami.
The Suns understand they were playing against LeBron James, Anthony Davis and a bunch of veteran players who should win close games like these.
