2008-09 NBA Preview: Phoenix Suns

"Phoenix Suns 2007-08 Record: 55-27 Cool 2007 Stat: The best shooting season ever? Steve Nash became the first player ever to shoot 50% from the field, 47% from three and 90% from the foul line. Anticipated Starting Five PG- Steve Nash SG- Raja Bell SF- Grant Hill PF- Amare Stoudemire C- Shaquille O'Neal Key Reserves: Leandro Barbosa, Matt Barnes, Boris Diaw, Robin Lopez Biggest Strength - Inside/Outside Scoring Phoenix presents one of the best inside-outside offensive games in the NBA. Their starting front-court (Shaq and Amare) is big and shot a combined 59.3% from the field last season, and I don't see that changing much this year either. Shaq can still score and shoot a high percentage when he gets touches in the post. If new coach Terry Porter regulates his minutes, he could still be dominant (scoring or passing out of double teams) for short bursts during games.
