More on Phoenix Suns
Description from Wikipedia:
The Phoenix Suns are a professional basketball team based in Phoenix, Arizona. They are members of the Pacific Division of the Western Conference in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Their home arena is the US Airways Center in downtown Phoenix at Copper Square.
The Suns have been generally successful since they began play as an expansion team in 1968. In forty-one years of play, they have posted eighteen fifty-win seasons, and made eight trips to the Western Conference Finals, advancing to the NBA Finals in 1976 and 1993. Despite their successes they have yet to win an NBA title. Currently, the team has four NBA superstars in Steve Nash, Jason Richardson, Grant Hill, and Amar'e Stoudemire.
In a recent ESPN article, the Phoenix Suns were ranked as the 5th best NBA franchise for all time. "'Best franchise never to win a championship' is something of a backhanded compliment, but in the case of Phoenix, it fits. For four decades, the Suns have done everything right except one thing -- win the title in the end. Despite four decades of visionary leadership from Jerry Colangelo, every opportunity has been ruined by some bizarre misfortune or other."
