Whether you like The Ringer's Bill Simmons or not, you have to admit some of his musings are both funny and thought provoking.
He also clearly doesn't watch as much basketball as he lets on, while his sweeping statements on teams and situations can be laughable. The Suns know all about that last part.
Suns proving "Ewing Theory" exists in The Valley
One of the most entertaining ideas Simmons has ever put out there goes back a long time, and it is called "The Ewing Theory".
If you're not familiar with it, basically Simmons has suggested that certain star players fall into this category, and that teams do better once they've either left town or are injured for an extended period of time.
