"The primary weakness is uncertainty. I don't think that's a secret to anybody," Kupchak said Thursday in a wide-ranging interview with Colin Cowherd on ESPN Radio's "The Herd." "Our best player, one of the best players ever to play the game, is recovering from an Achilles tendon tear and one of the other all-time best, Steve Nash, ended the season injured.
