35-4....think we started off one of the 7SOL seasons with that record.
I said that earlier but I think it was 34-4. First Nash return year with Richardson/Marion/Stoudemire. Who am I missing from starting lineup?
Joe Johnson was the other starter, and the record stood at 31-4 before Nash missed time and the team lost six in a row.

Interesting fact from that year, Quentin Richardson is still the suns record holder in 3 point attempts and makes. I wonder how many teams have their 3 point makes/attempts record holder nearly 20 years ago.

That was it. And I forgot about the 6 losses in a row after that! But I do remember our horrible record when Nash didn't play. We never found a good back up until Barbosa.

Best record in our history until recently.

Someone tell Doris Burke the Suns went 7-3 with the hardest remaining schedule in the history of basketball to end the season.

Suns really got the best possible bracket…Thunder, Mavs, and Clippers are my nightmare matchups and we can’t face them until WCF…Denver is obviously waiting in round 2, but at least we matchup with them. I think those other 3 smoke us.

We were built to match up with Denver.

Is 114 the median scoring average?? What an odd number to pick.

I'm guessing it's the number of points with our most wins.

Wow! Was just about to share the great news about Grayson!

YES! That is awesome. He deserves every penny, and it's really a relief that we took care of this now and didn't let him hit free agency. If this team has any hope of being a contender next season, we need to retain most of our guys while improving around the edges. You can't just let a guy go who has played as well as Grayson has.
