I think the Suns should've been first in Stein's rankings. Considering he always puts the defending champions in first during pre-season, then at least second. No way Boston deserves 2nd place in the rankings. They haven't proven anything, even in the East.</p>
Hopefully we could go through a yr where nothing happens. Injuries, refs, suspensions. Just want the Suns to be full strength and maybe get a few of their breaks along the way.</p>
