Suns Get to Run All the Way Home
It was a relief to see the Mavericks send the Suns home for a long rest they surely needed. The most overachieving team in the NBA, the Suns played with what was virtually a six-man team at breakneck speed, 20 games in almost as many days. And without a 7-footer. Given a reasonable rest, they may have won it all. I take my hat off to so much fortitude.
Steve Nash led them with heart and soul. Did any of the Lakers management watch? A team can’t go far with a bloated ego as a leader.
