Phoenix is a long way from home, and has been surviving by playing defense, nineth in the NBA in points allowed, as well as eigth in the NBA allowing 43.4% shooting by opponents. They come off a win at Charlotte, allowing 41.6% shooting, and the UNDER is 10-2 in the Suns last 12 games following a win. In addition, the UNDER is 4-1 in the Suns last five road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Orlando is also in the Top 10 in field goal shooting defense, allowing 44.5% (10th), plus seventh at defending the three pointer. Orlando is 6-2-1 UNDER the total against the Pacific division, plus the UNDER is 6-2 in the Magic's last eight home games vs. a team with a road winning percentage of less than .400. Look for more defense than oddsmakers expect. Play the Suns/Magic UNDER the total.
