The Suns lost again last night allowing the Milwaukee Bucks 132 points.
Michael Deuser from Sporting News draws a frightening parallel between 3 pointer percentages by Phoenix’s opponents in the last 10 games and Steve Kerr’s career numbers.
Kerr still holds the record for career 3 point percentage at 45.4 percent. Over the last 10 games, the Sun’s opponents have shot 3’s at 44.7 percent!
“That’s right: playing against the Suns these days makes every team shoot like the best 3-point shooting team of all time.”
- Michael Deuser.
Hard to believe the Suns have bigger problems than interior defense.
