Phoenix at Brooklyn

The Phoenix Suns have 20 games to go on the season, and remain in touch for a possible playoff spot, trailing the current #8 seed, Oklahoma Thunder by just two games. Although not deserving, the Brooklyn Nets at 25-34 are still very much alive for a playoff spot in the very weak NBA East. The Nets started poorly, and have just never got anything going. While they remain in contention, their 9-18 record over their last 27 games speaks loudly of where this team is, and it is not in a good place. The Suns are 37-17-1 ATS in their last 55 vs. the Atlantic, and 10-3 ATS vs the softer East. Brooklyn squanders opportunities at home where they are just 3-8 ATS in their last 11. Play on Phoenix.
