WESTERN CONF. TOTAL OF THE YEAR ... (77% YTD)
(NBA) Suns (PHO) vs. Spurs (SAN),
Total: 236.50 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
Phoenix Suns @ San Antonio Spurs (Over) ..

Prior to the All-Star break, Phoenix had started to pick up the pace and play in some very high scoring games. As a matter of fact, even though the Suns have been losing, their past five away games have all gone "over." Phoenix is a team that should be putting up points with how much star power it possesses. I expect it to score lots against a team that loves to score points as well in SAS.

San Antonio seems to always be having these high scoring games. Not only have 80% of their past 15 games finished above the o/u line, but the Spurs also can do this with how much speed they have on their team. After adding Fox, the Spurs can out run most teams in the NBA, leading to many fast break points and easy buckets with their opponents out of position.

In the end, I expect this game to be very high scoring. Both teams will be hungry to get off to a strong start after the break and offense should be the focus. Expect this game to end "over" and probably finish in the mid-240s on Thursday evening.

Score Prediction: 127-116 Suns
