As last year would indicate, the media's expectations for Phoenix should be taken with a grain of salt. However, to again hear the majority of the media predict a year of regression (typically, that we will lose 7-10 more games than we did last year) is disappointing.

I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it, but it feels disrespectful to Ott, Book and the rest of the roster to assume last year was flukey or the result of simply trying hard. I could definitely be wrong, but I'm bullish this team comfortably exceeds .500 (health dependent).

What are your realistic expectations in terms of a win total.
