Zusammenfassung:The Phoenix Suns lost Steve Nash and Channing Frye before the 2012-2013 season. Frye, who was diagnosed with an enlarged heart, was responsible for creating space in the team's pick-and-roll offense. Goran Dragic, Nash's former backup, will now run Phoenix's pick-and-roll. He will need to incorporate Luis Scola, Michael Beasley, and Wesley Johnson into the offense. Marcin Gortat could help the team with his paint presence, while Jared Dudley's main contribution will come from his versatility as a leader. Phoenix's offense of 98.4 points per game ranked 8th in the league in the 2011-2012 season.
