Phoenix at Memphis

It's been another long year for Memphis, and they cashed in their chips when they decided to trade Gasol to the Lakers. Phoenix is in no position to take a night off, as all games are now crucial. They sit tied for 6th in the competitive NBA West, just one game out of the critical #4 spot, which separates 1st round home teams from having to play on the road. Memphis has been totally non-competitive at home vs .500+ teams. Since Christmas, they are 0-14 SU, and 0-14 ATS vs these teams at home, and they have dropped the last seven by 14 points or more. Of the 14 played, they have lost 12 by 14 or more points, with an average losing margin of a whopping 18.4 ppg! They allow 106.5 ppg on the season, but they have allowed 116 ppg since they traded Gasol in home games vs teams over .500. This is too big of a game for the Suns not to bring their "A" game, and Memphis has been futile all season in this situation. Suns in a blowout.
