Phoenix at Houston

Injuries have taken their toll on these clubs as, after missing all of last season, Yao Ming has been sidelined again with more leg problems. The Sun will likely be missing Steve Nash once again while he deals with a groin injury (check status). The Rockets have a 3-9 mark to show for the season and the offense, which has been their best feature, has gone cold in the last three games, all losses. The Rockets were averaging 108ppg, but over the last have failed to top the 100 point mark. The Suns aren't a good team to bring a cold offense into the game with as what they do best is put the ball in the hole and get it done quickly. I like Phoenix in this one on the moneyline.
