Times are tough in Phoenix right now. It truly is a “what have you done for me lately” mindset as the Suns have last their last two games after winning 5 of their previous 6. The losses bring to the surface underlying issues and observations about the team, things that winning mutes.
A team that is 19-18 is truly a team in the middle, and while the reasoning behind that record for the Phoenix Suns can be explained, it doesn’t take away from the fact that they are the 9th seed in the Western Conference. This is a team that had much higher expectations than fighting for a play-in spot.
