This is about the Suns and mostly an eyeball test meaning I didn’t look anything up.

Would this year’s Suns be the first “offensive juggernaut” team to win a championship if they do?

I don’t have the actual stats but I think the past champions each had at least a top 10 defense.

Who else was a contender with “no defense” ?

    Fellow Suns fan here. I don’t think they will have a defensive ranking in the top 10 for the season, but I do believe that they’re capable of it. We’ve seen Booker be a very good defender when locked in, and the same goes for Durant. I haven’t seen Beal enough to know what his defense looks like.

    Not to mention that Frank Vogel has thrice coached teams with a top defensive in the last decade. So it’s not unreasonable to think that they could at least be above average in that area.
