America West Arena
This season, the Phoen ix Suns bring their rich, 25-year trad ition to a brand-new home - the America West Arena. Named for Phoenix 's hometown airline, the Arena stands in tri bute to the unprecedented partnership among the city of Phoenix, America West Airlines and the Phoenix Suns and to the long-held dream of Phoenix Suns President and CEO, Jerry Colangelo. Colangelo has spent more than 26 years in the NBA, all the while nurturing the dream of an Arena bui lt primarily for a basketbal l team he would call his own. The thousands of hours spent in other people's buildings developed Colangelo's keen eye and kept the desire burning. Since the inception of the franchise, the Phoeni x Suns have played home games at the 14,500-seat Arizona Veterans' Memorial Coliseum. Constructed in 1965, the Coliseum is one of the oldest and smallest facilities used by an NBA team. But his dream took one step closer to reality in 1987, when Colangelo led a group of investors in the purchase of the Phoenix Suns franch ise and immediately began exploring the possibility of a downtown Phoenix Arena with then-Mayor of Phoenix , Terry Goddard. The proposed partnership featured the city as facility owner with the Suns providing management expertise. The benefits would be mutual as well - the Phoen ix Suns wou ld receive a home built around basketball and featuring al l the amen ities which wo ul d al low them to be more competitive in the NBA. The city wou ld receive a downtown traffic builder (estimated at up to two million people annually) and a guarantee that the Suns would play in downtown Phoenix for at least 40 years. In August 1989, America West Airlines joined the team and committed to become Arena's naming sponsor. The next year was spent assembling the design and construction team for a multipurpose Arena that would emphasize the needs of its primary tenant. Sports facility special ist Ellerbe Becket was named principal arch itect , fo llowed by Huntcor as project managers and Mard ian Construction (now Perini) as general contractor. Early in 1990, the design team unveiled a model of the one-mi llion-sq uare-foot, 20,000-seat Arena that impressed fans and skeptics alike. On August 1, 1990, Colangelo was joined by new Phoenix Mayor Paul Johnson , America West Airl ines CEO Ed Beauvais and several hundred guests in groundbreaki ng ceremonies at " center court " of the Arena. Mardian began an agg ressive constructi on sched ule that would have the America West Arena open on June 1, 1992. A series of sell-out entertainment and sporting events marked the debut of the America West Arena's summer grand opening. Huey Lewis, Garth Brooks, Hammer and Metallica are just a few of the top entertainers who praised the bu ilding and its management. But on November 7th , a new era beg ins for this young bui lding as the Phoen ix Suns bring their own brand of entertainment to the floor.

President and Chief Executive Officer COLLEGE : University of Illinois '62
DEGREE : B.A. Physical Education HIGH SCHOOL: Bloom Township H.S., Chicago Heights, Illinois
The name Jerry Colangelo is synonymous with the Phoenix Suns. A savvy businessman and astute judge of basketball talent, Colangelo has guided the Phoenix Suns to their prominent position as one of the National Basketball Association's most successful franchises both on and off the court As the adage goes, success starts at the top. For the past 24 years, the man at the top has been Colangelo. Hired as the Suns' first general manager on March 1, 1968, Colangelo, then 28, was the youngest general manager in professional sports. His tenure running the same NBA franchise can be exceeded only by Red Auerbach of the Boston Celtics. A 26-year veteran of the NBA, Colangelo continued in the capacity of general manager until October of 1987 when he led a group that purchased the Suns franchise for $44.5 million. Since that time, Colangelo has served as the Suns President and Chief Executive Officer. After purchasing the franchise, Colangelo made a series of bold moves. First was the blockbuster trade in February of 1988 that brought Kevin Johnson, Mark West and a first-round draft pick which became Dan Majerle to Phoenix. In May of that same year he named Cotton Fitzsimmons as the head coach , and in July, he inked the fi rst unrestricted free agent in NBA history, Tom Chambers. By the following season the club had posted a 50-plus win season and Colangelo was named NBA Executive of the Year (1988-89). He is the only person in NBA history to win this award three times having also been honored in 1975-76 and 1980-81. Under his guidance as owner and chief executive officer the Suns have posted four consecutive 50-plus win seasons and advanced to the Western Conference Finals two of the four seasons. Over the past four years, the Suns' regular season record of 217-111 (.662) is the fifth best record in the NBA behind only Chicago, the Lakers, Detroit and Portland. The success on the court was matched off the court as Phoenix set new team attendance records in each of the last four seasons while playing at Veterans' Memorial Coliseum. Colangelo's vision for the future led to the June, 1992, opening of the state-of-the-art America West Arena, with a capacity of 19,023 for basketball. Colangelo was the driving force behind the effort to bring the America West Arena to downtown Phoenix. It was under his direction that it was designed, and under his guidance that it is managed. The arena, a unique partnership between the Suns and the City of Phoenix, is a catalyst for the rebirth of downtown Phoenix with a projected 200 events and two million patrons annually. Colangelo serves in several advisory capacities for the NBA, including the Board of Governors, the Finance Committee, the Long Range Planning Committee, and he was the chairman of the Competition and Rules Committee for four years. He also serves on the Honors Committee of the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Massachusetts. Highly regarded for his commitment to the community, Colangelo is actively involved in numerous Phoenix organizations. He is on the Board of Directors of the Phoenix Art Museum, the Phoenix Country Club, the

He was the former President of the Valley Big Brothers and is chairman of the board of the Christian Businessmen's Club. He has been honored by the Phoenix Jaycees, the Boy's Clubs and the Boy Scouts. He is also a director and principal of Stratford American Corporation, a real estate development company. In addition to his front office duties, Colangelo has twice stepped in to coach the Suns. He took over for Johnny Kerr on January 2, 1970 and guided the club to its first playoff appearance and a 24-20 record that year. He also replaced Butch van Breda Koltt early in the 1972-73 season and compiled a 35-40 mark. Overall, Colangelo has a 59-60 record as an NBA coach. Colangelo began his sports management career as the head scout and director of merchandising for the Chicago Bulls when they entered the NBA in 1966. He later became the executive assistant to Dick Klein, president and general manager of the Bulls. Colangelo originally enrolled at the University of Kansas, but transferred after his prospective teammate, Wilt Chamberlain , left the Jayhawks for a pro contract Colangelo transferred to the University of Illinois, where he earned All-Big Ten honors, averaging 15 points per game. He captained the Illinois team as a senior. He also played two years of baseball at Illinois. He was inducted into the Illinois Basketball Hall of Fame.

Cotton Fitzsimmons is going to be looking at the NBA from a new vantage point. Handing over the reins as head coach to Paul Westphal , he moved upstairs as the Senior Executive Vice President of the team. He will assist the Suns' President and Chief Executive Officer Jerry Colangelo with the day·to-day operations of the team and will take to the air as the Suns television color commentator. Being in front of the camera isn't new for Cotton. He has worked for both TNT and NBC during the NBA Playoffs. Fitzsimmons leaves the sidelines after coaching the Suns to four consecutive 50 + win seasons and two trips to the Western Conference Finals in the past four years. In that four-year span Phoenix's 217-111 (.662) record trails only the Lakers, Portland , Chicago and Detroit. Fitzsimmons' 19-year NBA coaching record is an impressive 805-745 (.519) . He is the sixth winningest coach in NBA history behind only Red Auerbach, Jack Ramsay, Dick Motta, Bill Fitch and Lenny Wilkens. He has twice been honored as the NBA Coach of the Year. His 314-178 (.638) record is the highest winning percentage of any Suns coach. It includes a two-year stint from 1970 through 1972. This past season , Fitzsimmons recorded his 800th coaching victory on March 31 , 1992 vs. Portland, becoming only the sixth man in NBA history to reach the plateau. The Fitzsimmons' led teams set numerous records during his tenure. The 1990-91 Suns won 23 road games, eclipsing the team record of 22 set in 1989-90. They also won 13 games in March which tied the club mark for most wins in any month. In 1989-90 the team advanced to a Western Conference Finals appearance. That year they set a then club record of 22 road wins. Their 11-1 record in February included a stretch of 19 wins in a row at home and 10 wins in a row in January, both were single season records. Fitzsimmons reached the .500 win level on Feb. 24, 1990, the first time since the 1976 season when he was the head coach of the Atlanta Hawks. Fitzsimmons' first year of his second stint with the Suns, 1988-89, was the kind of year that all coaches just dream about The Suns won 27 more games than the previous year, which at the time was the third biggest turnaround in NBA history. The 55-27 record is the second best mark in franchise history. It was the first time in his NBA coaching career that he led a team to 50 or more wins. The Suns made the playoffs for the first time in four years and went all the way to the Western Conference Finals before falling to the Lakers. Fitzsimmons was named NBA Coach of the Month for April and was ultimately honored as Coach of the Year by the NBA, The Sporting News and Basketball Weekly. Fitzsimmons was named head coach May 10, 1988, a year after he had been named the Suns first director of player personnel. Fitzsimmons began his pro coaching career with Phoenix in 1970 and posted a 97-67 record for two seasons. Among Fitzsimmons' other coaching stops included the San Antonio Spurs from 1984-86 where he posted a 76-88 mark over two seasons and led the Spurs to the playoffs each year. From 1978-84 he coached the Kansas City Kings to a 248-224 record record . While there, he was named NBA Coach of the Year in 1978-79 after leading the Kings to a first place finish in the Midwest Division. Prior to joining the Kings, Fitzsimmons coached the Buffalo Braves for one season (1977-78) and the Atlanta Hawks for four years (1972-76) accumulating a 140-180 record . During the 1976-77 season , he was the director of player personnel for the Golden State Warriors. Fitzsimmons began his coaching career at Moberly (MO) Junior College in 1958.

Head Coach COLLEGE : University of Southern California '72 DEGREE : Physical Education HIGH SCHOOL: Aviation, Redondo Beach , California
COACHING CAPSULE: Prior to the start of the 1992 Playoffs, the Phoenix Suns announced that effective July 1, Paul Westphal would become the team's new head coach. Although the timing came as a surprise, the announcement itself did not When Cotton Fitzsimmons became the Suns coach before the 1988-89 season with Westphal and Lionel Hollins as his assistants, the plan called for him to take over as head coach when Cotton decided to step down. It was a unique situation but one that not only provided Westphal with time to mature and learn from one of the all-time winningest NBA coaches, but also made for an unusually smooth transition as far as coaching changes go. One of Westphal's first tasks was to name Lionel Hollins and Scotty Robertson as assistant coaches.

"Mom says Ihave too much energy." The truth 1s. we all use more energy than we need around the house. And this wasted energy not only costs us money. it depletes our natural resources. Fortunately. there are many ways to save energy. and be in concert with the environment. For example. air cond1t1on1ng accounts for up to 70% of asummer electric bill in desert areas. But you can save 4 to 5 percent of this cost for every degree warmer than 78 degrees that you set your thermostat. Planting deciduous trees around your house will add shade in the summer to lower household temperatures. and let sunshine through 1n the winter for free solar heating. You could save another 25% of your heating and cooling costs by properly insulating walls. ceilings and ducts around your home. To speak to an energy specialist about ways to lower your APS bill. call 371-7171.

1968-69 O n Jan uary 22 , 1968 the N.B.A. Board of Governors granted a franchise to the city of Phoeni x On April 25, 1968, the name " SUNS" was selected in a contest sponsored by The Arizona Republic. The winning entry was submitted by Mrs. Selinda King of Phoenix. The Suns began building their team by naming Johnny Kerr as head coach. Kerr, who had coached the Chicago Bulls for the previous two years, was the NBA's Coach of the Year in 1966-67. Next was the 1968 NBA College Draft. Their first selection was Gary Gregor, a 6-7 forward from the University of South Carolina. They continued to build the young squad by making Dick Van Arsdale the first player taken in the expansion draft. Van Arsdale had played the previous three years with New York. Phoenix also selected guard Gail Goodrich , a 3-yrveteran , from the Los Angeles Lakers. On October 18th, the Suns opened their rookie season with a 116-107 victory over Seattle as 7,112 fans filled Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Gail Goodrich led the team with 27 points, 10 assists and 9 rebounds while Dick Van Arsdale pitched in 21 points. The Suns went on to finish the month with a 4-3 mark. But that was the last time they would be above .500 as they suffered through the rest of their first season of existence to finish with a 16-66 record. Goodrich and Van Arsdale led the Suns averaging 23.8 and 21.0 points per game, respectively. Goodrich finished sixth in the league in scoring and third as a guard behind Baltimore's Earl Monroe and Cincinnati 's Oscar Robertson . Both players also appeared in the NBA All-Star game at Baltimore. Gary Gregor was named to the All-Rookie team .

1969-70 W ith the addition of veterans Paul Silas and Connie Hawkins, the young Suns enjoyed a 13-game turnaround and a trip to their first-ever playoffs. Silas, obtained in a trade with Atlanta for Gary Gregor, gave the team additional inside strength averaging nearly 12 rebounds per game. While Hawkins joined the Suns after a two-year stint in the ABA, where he was among the leaders in scoring , and one year with the Harlem Globetrotters. On January 2, Suns coach Johnny Kerr resigned just 5 hours prior to that night's game against San Diego. General Manager Jerry Colangelo took over as coach and Connie Hawkins hit a 14-foot jump shot with four seconds left to give Phoenix a 121 -120 victory over the Rockets that night. Colangelo guided the team to a 24-20 mark over the rest of the season en route to a third-place finish behind Atlanta and Los Angeles and the franchise's first postseason action . The Suns drew the Lakers in first round action and dropped the opening game in L.A. But the Suns showed character as they picked up the next three games behind superb play from Silas, Hawkins and Goodrich. However, the likes of Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West and Elgin Baylor were too much for the Suns as the Lakers clinched the series in seven games. Van Arsdale made his second appearance in January's All-Star game along with the team's scoring leader Connie Hawkins. Hawkins also earned first team Al l-Pro honors.

1971-72 F itzsimmons began his second year at the helm. The Suns drafted Den nis Layton , a 6-1 point guard from USC who played previou sly at Phoenix College. The Suns began the season with a starting lineup of Clem Haskins an d Dick Van Arsdale at guard, Neal Walk at center and Connie Hawkins and Paul Silas at the forward spots. On March 14, the Suns obtained the rights to Charlie Scott from the Boston Celtics in exchange for future co nsiderations. Scott, a 6-6 guard from North Carolina, came over from the Virgin ia Squires of the ABA where he was averaging 35 points per game. Phoenix posted a club record 49-33 won-lost mark, improving for the fourth consecutive year. However, despite having the sixth best record in the NBA, the Suns finished behind Milwaukee and Chicago in the Midwest Division and failed to qualify for the playoffs. Connie Hawkins and Paul Silas represented the West team in the All-Star game. It was Hawkins' third straight appearance and he led the West sq uad with 13 points and a 112-1 10 victory. Silas was named as the Suns Most Valuable Player by the fans as he led the team in rebounding for the th ird straig ht year (11.9). Hawkins led the club in scoring with a 21 .0 average while Van Arsdale averaged 19.7 points per game. The Suns topped thei r previous best in attendance totall ing 342,922 fans, an average of 8,346 per contest.

1973-74 John Macleod took the Suns coach ing reins from Colangelo during the offseason. Macleod , 35, had coached the last six years at the University of Oklahoma leading the Sooners to the NIT twice. New to the team were rookie Mike Bantam , the eighth pick in the college draft, and Keith Erickson, who was acquired in the first month of the season from Los Angeles in exchange for Connie Hawkins. Phoenix went on a 10-game skid early in the season as they were learning a new system under Macleod and playing one of the roughest portions of their schedule. The Suns finished fourth in the Pacific Division with a 30-52 mark, their lowest number of wins since their inaugural season. Charlie Scott made his second straight appearance in the All-Star game as he was tops in the Western Conference in scoring with a 26.6 average. He finished the season averaging 25.4 points per game but missed the final 29 games with a broken arm . Van Arsdale led the club in point production with 1389 and shooting percentage (.500) . Newcomer Erickson was voted by fans as the Suns Most Outstanding Player.
(Record: 30-52)
FRONT ROW: Bob Christian, Lamar Green, Neal Walk, Head Coach John Macleod, Gorky Calhoun, Mike Bantam , Keith Erickson . BACK ROW: Assistant Coach Dennis Price, Clem Haskins, Charlie Scott, Dick Van Arsdale, Jim Owens, Gary Melchionni , Trainer Joe Proski.

1974-75 The season was preceded by one of the largest transactions in Suns history with ce nter Neal Walk and a second-roun d draft pick going to New Orleans in exchange for Curtis Perry, Dennis Awtrey, Nate Hawthorne and a first-round pick in 1976. Also new to the team was rookie John Shumate, a 6-8 forward from Notre Dame who was the fourth pick in the college draft. Unfortunately, Shumate had to sit out his rookie season so he could receive treatment for blood clots. Perry had his best season as a pro averaging 12 points and 12 rebounds per game winning both the Suns' Most Outstanding and Most Popular Player Awards. In late February, the Suns had a shot at the NBA playoffs, but injuries to Van Arsdale and Erickson knocked them from contention . The Suns fin ished fourth in the Pacific Division with a 32-50 mark. Charlie Scott was the Sun s only Al l-Star representative, his third co nsecu tive appearance. The 25th annual All-Star game was th e first one ever played in Phoenix. Scott finished the season as the club's leading scorer with 24.3 points per game. Perry was listed as the #10 rebou nder in th e NBA .
