No Math Majors Work In ESPN Graphics Dept

So I'm watching Sportscenter last night, mainly because I'll watch a good test pattern if it's in HD, and they're talking about the (snore) NBA and how dominant the Suns and Mavs are. (Oh, and on a side note, I am certain neither of them will win it all. I don't know why...I'm just feeling the Spurs and nobody is even acknowledging they exist.)


Anyway, the point is, I was watching them rave about the season-long rolls the Mavs and Suns are on and the graphic about the Suns caught my eye. I rolled back the DVR and I had to re-read it ten times to make sure I wasn't adding wrong. But take a look:





43-8 in their last 55 games, you say? If you can go 43-8 in 55 games, that's quite a team indeed since 43-8 can only be accomplished by mortal teams in a 51 game span, not 55. What happened to those other four games? Were they striken from the record for some reason? Was Mike D'Antoni's hair out of place? Were Steve Nash and Shawn Marion busy playing pickup hoops in an airplane hangar somewhere?

I know, I know, it's just a typo but still.
