Suns playing league's worst 4th quarter defense over last seven games

The Suns have dropped six of their last seven games, and after blowing a 16-point lead before losing in overtime to the Pistons, it was worth wondering just how bad their final period defense has been during that stretch.

Dave King of Bright Side of the Sun looked it up, and as it turns out, the Suns' fourth-quarter defense has been the worst in the league over the last seven games. 

It's worth noting that Tyson Chandler has missed basically all of the last four games due to injury, though he had seen his minutes reduced even before that as head coach Jeff Hornacek looked to match his opponents' small lineups. 

Still, Chandler should figure much more prominently once he returns, especially as the team looks to correct what's become a serious problem during its recent slide.
