Phoenix at Milwaukee

Did you realize that Steve Nash was held to 0 points for the first time in 3 years against the Nets in the Suns recent embarassing loss? Yes, the Suns will come out fired up today, but will it be enough? They have not played well of late including road losses to the Jazz, Portland and Spurs. Given that, they play a Bucks team that has played decent at home blowing out the Bulls and beating a sound Toronto team in OT at home. Adjusting to the loss of T.J. Ford, this team has found a groove and although they might not win this game SU, the fact that they get nearly 7 points as a home dog, and the fact that the Suns have been struggling, seems to be a solid bet here on the home dog. It is unlikely that Phoenix will suddenly fix their problems as they travel without rest and play their third game in four nights. Milwaukee has won five of their past eight games overall and they will be competitive tonight as a home underdog playing with revenge.
