Dallas at Phoenix

There was a lot of ownership noise in the off-season in Phoenix, but I don't think it'll impact the Suns' home opener. This team won 71 games a year ago including playoffs, and they have a score to settle with Dallas after losing in Game 7 of the Western semi-finals. I think that will serve as a huge motivator, especially with the game in Phoenix. The Mavs just caught lightning in a bottle and got hot for a series, getting bounced in the next round 4-1 vs. Golden State. Prior to winning the playoff series, Dallas was on a 3-16 run against the Suns. I think we see more of that than what we saw in the playoffs. Take Phoenix.
