I’m still in amazement.
The Phoenix Suns, a team who finished an 82-game season with a mere 19 wins just 20 months ago, is now expected to make the playoffs. Yes, it is the way it should be, but still. This franchise has lacked success for so long, it is with caution that we feel the butterflies of excitement.
One of the primary reasons for the change in expectations was the addition via trade of 10-time All-Star Chris Paul.
Chris Paul has always been the enemy. Respect his game or not, he has played the part of nemesis as a Suns’ rival for 15 years.
