I think they'll have a bulls-eye on them from the start this season. It will be hard for the Suns to match the start they had last season with every team gunning for them. However, I still think they're easily an over 50 win team. I'm predicting 56 W and 26 L.

58-24

Well somewhere between 58-62 wins I guess as long as we are healthy.

my guess is 57 but could be higher. id be happy with 57 wins if coach D would use a deeper rotation, but nothing shy of 62 if he doesnt.

i'm seeing 57.....

and i hope we are not being overly optimistic. :koolaid: This team has grown on me over the last month.............

Really there are so many factors to consider so i will give the top 5:

Amare is MVP = 60
Diaw becomes starting two guard = 57
Nash or Stat get injured for 10 + games =40
Nash is MVP again = 72
Kurt and Bell dont provide quite the rebounding and defense we thought they would = 50

Really this could go on all day but these are the biggest factors in wins and losses in my mind....

Normally this questions begs to know what kind of injuries they will sustain.

We win over 60, much more feared than last year. We have bench strength this year. The bench will be a factor to the health of the starters.

LET THE SEASON BEGIN!

57 should be enough to win the Pacific Division and the #2 seed. Thats enough for me.

Suns record 57-25.

The start will be important. There are so many new guys, and unless JJackson starts there could be two new starters this year. That may slow them down some until they get to know each other in game situations. But the talent is there and they will get better as the season goes along.

i'll say 57 - 62.

they'll start a bit slower than last year, but i think they'll pick it up in the middle and either cruise at the end or turn it up a notch (depending on seeding). in the playoffs they're gonna be a beast. i can't wait for the season to start.

54-57 wins

They won 62 games last year, but they started something like 37-3. They won't sneak up on anybody this year.
