Great breakdown of our clutch losses(spoilers: we're not as terrible as I thought) and what the root cause seems to be.

I'm confused. In my mind there is absolutely no way we have a winning record in close games, I just can't believe it. I also saw a statistic of our records in the final minutes with Len on and off the floor and overall it was a bad losing record. Something isn't right...

"The Phoenix Suns record in heart-breakers is dismal"

Is not everyone's record in heart-breakers exactly winless?

Should have called it "heart-attackers". Would be spot on.

Nice article. I do believe that those 3-4 losses were just terrible luck and not bad execution in the last seconds.
