It looks like Phoenix has hit the stride of one of their offensive rolls, and we would like to take advantage of that. Phoenix has now gone over the 120 point mark for the second game in a row, and have rattled off 6 straight wins. Phoenix went to this run and gun offense back in 2004-05 and there have been 34 regular season games they have topped the 120 mark, and the next game saw them go OVER in 22 of 34 of them or 64.7% of the time. If you include the playoffs which were 5-1 to the OVER, that makes 28 of 41 for just under 70%! There have also been four occasions where they scored 120 or more in back-to-back games, and they have gone OVER in all 4 of them the next game! The average margin that these games went over the total by was 12.3 ppg! We will take advantage of the sizzling Suns, and play this one over. New Jersey won't be able to keep up as they average just 96 ppg. In these high scoring games (total between 200 and 210), Phoenix is 23-11 ATS. The Suns are 40-19 ATS on the road after scoring 100+ pints in four straight games. Take the Suns and the OVER.
