I actually don't think it's the run and gun style of the Suns that is causing the issue... it's the fact that they have no size on the inside and are being murdered inside. It's basically two free points for the Lakers when they throw it down low to Gasol/Odom/Bynum. It's hard to continiously put up points when you know the opponent is guaranteed two points at their will.
I guess that goes with the 'no defense' theory.. but I think it's more of a roster issue. All the high-end teams left have at least some size on the inside and that would cause matchup nightmares for the Suns.
Too bad for Kid Canada though.. I want him to get that Championship he so badly deserves.
