Not YET

If Giannis plays there his whole career and leads them deep into the playoffs a few more times, I'm quite sure Milwaukee fans won't even think twice on who their guy is.

Their guy, but not THE guy.

Have any of the teams I mentioned been healthy?

Well let's see here.

Lakers- nope

Clippers- nope

Warriors- nope

Jazz- nope

But that won't matter to him. He seems like the type of person that thinks the Earth is flat.

Maybe that's the part to recant ('when the....are all healthy')

But let's be fair, the Suns would still be the #1 seed even with all those teams having better injury luck

We don't know yet if it's a regular season thing like Utah always seems to do, but credit where it's due

Oh gawd! Here we go again with injuries…
Injuries helped you get as far as you did last year. This year your team is stronger. But injuries play a role in almost every championship, it's just how the game works. 2021 was especially injury plagued among the playoff teams. Doesn't diminish anyone's title.

Yup. If the Suns win the championship this year I bet there will be a lot of if “Insert team name here” was healthy they would’ve beat the Suns.

CP's liable to get hurt at any moment given his age and injury history.

The Suns had a great run last year, they just ran into a buzzsaw in the Bucks.

The one good thing that came out of last years run was for this Suns team to get playoff experience.

They do that every year. It means nothing. Obviously the Raptors don't win in 2019 vs a full Warriors squad. Still a great accomplishment and a legit title.
