Suns clinch winning record for first time since 2014
Photo by Barry Gossage/NBAE via At 37-15, the Suns cannot finish the 72-game season with a losing record A long time has passed since the Suns had a winner in town. Try seven years since the positive blip, way back in 2014 when Goran Dragic and Channing Frye carried the Suns to a 48-34 record but fell just short of the playoffs. And before that? Try eleven years ago when they finished 54-28 and busted their way to the Conference Finals in 2010 for the third time in six years of the Nash and Stoudemire heyday. All those seasons in between? Yuck. But all that is behind...

Suns destroy Wizards 134-106
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports Suns break out the offense we know in the second half to take the win over the Wizards. Without Bradley Beal, the Washington Wizards tried to make it three wins in a row against the Phoenix Suns. A slow start for the Suns kept the game close until the second half of the game. The Suns were ghosts on defense but tightened things up and looked like the Suns we know to take the win 134-106. Good defense led to better offense for the Suns, especially in a third quarter they outscored the Wizards 44-24. Devin Booker led the Suns with 27...

This week showed that to win in the playoffs, the Suns will need everyone’s best
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports The Suns can’t count on matching the star power of the Clippers and Lakers or the know-how of the Jazz and Nuggets. It will take everyone. Whatever hole you want to poke in the Suns’ postseason chances, from inexperience to a lack of star power to just flat out not believing in Chris Paul or Devin Booker, what’s clear is the best way to combat those deficiencies is to get enough out of every player on the roster that not one single thing can end up being the Suns’ demise. In practice, this means many of the issues we saw crop up...

The Dario Dilemma
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports Saric has had a rough 14-game span. Is this his new normal? Isn’t funny how we develop a connection to certain bench players on the Phoenix Suns? We gravitate to the nicknames we create and the personalities of our favorite players. Frank the Tank. Pyramid Papi. Stix. Langston Lagoon. C4. Super Dario. It sounds like a platoon of misfit Marines ready to head off into the Vietnamese jungle circa 1967. Dario Saric has a special place in many Suns’ fans hearts for his hustle and grit. The dude does not possess the same athletic talents...

Locked On Suns Friday: Suns don’t show cards in road loss to LA as Bridges bounces back
The Clippers took down the Phoenix Suns, 113-103, to win the season series. The Western Conference standings continue to be in flux, and the Suns’ win streak finally came to an end against a hungry Clippers squad, 113-103, on Thursday. Devin Booker continued his strong scoring, Deandre Ayton stayed aggressive, and Mikal Bridges bounced back. But the Clippers clearly affected the Suns’ rhythm, which begs the question of why we didn’t see more small ball with Torrey Craig on the floor to counter Los Angeles. Did the Clippers just want this one more? Find us on Apple...
