    We all know the Phoenix Suns won the ratings championship of the last few years (so says da_suns_fan), but are they NBA history's 9-Seed Champions as well?

    Jerry Colangelo must be so proud.

    Best Phoenix can do is 47-35, and the West is not as good this year, so I say no.

    Golden State had more wins, true, but I don't think they were better than this current Suns team under Gentry.

    Keep in mind that the first 50 games of this season were marred by Terry Porter.

    More talented? Sure. Better team? Not so much. If you can't harness talent into a cohesive product on the floor, then that talent goes for naught. West was easier this year too. Three of the top four teams in the league reside East, and the worst teams in the League are East-heavy. The West occupies the middle layer.

    Not with the effort they put forth in several key games. They lost several games that they should have pulled off.

    At Utah, blew the end
    Sacramento
    Had Cleveland at home on the ropes, coughed it up
    Dallas at Pho, should've got that one

    If they could've won 2 of the above games, they might of had a shot. I'm sure there's another recent game the blew that's slipping my mind.

    Considering they have Amare on the bench. Yes.

    I dont remember seeing a 9th seed as stacked as this. That being said, they're probably the biggest underachieving team this past decade.

    ive been kind of thinking about this.

    not necessarily the best, but i cant remember another 9th seeded being talked about so much during the year.

    they've had more publicity than Houston, Portland, Dallas, Denver, and New Orleans combined

    probably the most famous ever

    At the end of the day if your the Suns you have to look at yourselves and wonder if we are really looking towards publicity or are we looking to win championships.

    Amare Stoudemire out for the season getting poked in the eye? Gimme a break. Who do you think you are? Evander Holyfield? This is a grown man's game fellas.

    The bottom line, the sun has set in Phoenix.

    No. They've had moments of lax defense and they can be stopped. I think last year's Golden State team was the best of all-time. The West has offered some great 9 seeds this decade: 2000 Mavericks, 2001 Rockets and Sonics, 2003 Rockets, 2004 Blazers, 2005 Timberwolves, 2008 Warriors, and 2009 Suns.

    Baron davis, Monta ellis and Stephon jackson are much better than a 37 year old Shaq, 35 year old Nash and no defense Amare.

    Under Terry Porter: 28-23 (.549)
    Under Gentry: 15-12 (.556)

    Not like Gentry has made a substantial improvement on the team winning games. Plus, while their offense flows better, their defense is exponentially worse. They give up 125 points like opponents are doing lay-up lines.

    2008 Golden State Warriors are better.
