 Son Has the Suns on the Rise (washingtonpost.com)
As an organization, the Suns want to put to rest the belief that Jerry Colangelo is responsible for all of the team's successes and Bryan is responsible for all of its blunders.
To NBA fans who sneered at Bryan Colangelo's meteoric rise within the Phoenix Suns' organization, the 39-year-old is ready to share his secrets on corporate-ladder climbing.
While Jerry is revered by Suns fans, Bryan had been dismissed by critics as an empty suit, the "boss's son." Ever since becoming general manager in 1995, Bryan has heard the whispers about nepotism, how he is "no Jerry," and is undeserving of his station, even from within his own organization.

Colangelo, whose front-office moves helped lead the Suns to the third-biggest turnaround in league history, will be presented the award at a news conference on Tuesday, said a league source, speaking on condition of anonymity.
