The NBA playoffs are in full swing and as we near closer to the NBA Finals, fans in Phoenix are just watching in hopes that one day soon their Phoenix Suns will be back in the playoffs. The Phoenix Suns have not seen a playoff game since 2010.
The Suns hold the second longest streak in the NBS for seasons without a playoff appearance at 9. They trail only the Sacramento Kings, who have 13 seasons since they last went to the playoffs.
The Suns have already made some off season moves such as firing their head coach and hiring Philadelphia assistance Monty Williams, that have the Phoenix fans asking, has the franchise finally turned the corner?
The proof may not come as fast as fans want it to, but yes, the Phoenix Suns have turned the corner. They have finally hired a coach with proven experience, they have star power currently on the roster, and owner Robert Sarver seems to be sticking more to his role as an owner and less of a General Manager/Coach.
The Suns have the sixth pick in this years draft and are a point guard away from being a contender for a playoff berth. Only time will tell if the Phoenix have truly turned the corner to the successful franchise they once were.
