Entry #2: The Suns are going to the NBA Finals

 The Phoenix Suns had a really good chance in making it to the finals, but now, they increased their chances immensely. About two years ago the Suns made it to the finals and they had two all stars in their lineup with Chris Paul and Devin Booker. This season the Suns are doing pretty average as the record is 30 wins and 26 losses, due to many injuries and other off-court situations that has been happening with the Suns. They were projected to get kicked out in the second round of the playoffs, but they recently acquired probably the best player in basketball right now Kevin Durant. This trade kicked the organization into full championship mode. 


  To get Kevin Durant the Suns had to give the Brooklyn Nets(Kevin Durant's former team) Mikal Bridges, Cameron Johnson, Jae Crowder, and four unprotected first-round picks. This was a large sacrifice for the Suns as Cameron Johnson and Mikal Bridges are both young stars that have all-star potential. But that is just how special Kevin Durant is as he nearly averaged 30 points per game last season and almost single handedly carried the Nets to the second round of the playoffs. Kevin Durant is just an unstoppable scorer, he’s 7 feet tall with a 89 inch wingspan no one can contest his jumpshot. 


 His scoring ability is going to bring the Phoenix Suns over the top as our main problem facing other teams is that we only have two superstars who can score with the ball. With Kevin Durant the Suns are not going to have a problem with scoring at all. Kevin Durant is also an excellent defender who can guard other wings and provide an excellent defender in the small forward position. The other contenders in the western conference are the Dallas Mavericks and they can’t place anyone to guard Kevin Durant. The Phoenix Suns are the favorites to win the NBA Championship.
