Problems in the Paint for the Phoenix Suns

On Saturday, December 22, the Phoenix Suns won their game against the Toronto Raptors. The score was 122-103. This was the game that Chris Bosh has a career high, scoring forty two (42) points. On Christmas Day, the Suns lost to the Los Angeles Lakers: 122-115. Andrew Bynum, the young center for the Lakers, had a career high, scoring twenty eight (28) points.

Obviously, the Phoenix Suns cannot be giving up career nights to opposing front line players.

The Phoenix defense, especially Amaré Stoudemire, is a concern. The Suns cannot afford to be giving up career scoring nights to opposing players. It might not catch up with the Suns during the regular season. However, it could mean another earlier-than-expected exit from post season play. And that’s going to annoy Steve Nash… immensely.
