Golden State heads to Phoenix for another old-fashioned Western shootout. BetOnline.com has the Phoenix Suns –6 point favorites against the Golden State Warriors with the over/under set at 236 points.
Ahead of Wednesday's game with Toronto, the Warriors have not been held under 100 points since January 9th, and they are currently hanging on to the final playoff place in the ultra-competitive West. But the Warriors' disdain for defense may be their undoing, as they are dead last in the entire NBA in points allowed. If the Warriors want to be taken seriously as a championship contender, especially in light of the moves made by their conference rivals, they are going to have to tighten up on the defensive end of the floor.
The Suns are hoping Shaquille O'Neal can do the same for their squad, and if they can count on more performances like last Sunday's win over San Antonio, they will consider the deal a smashing success. O'Neal harassed the Spurs' Tim Duncan into a subpar showing, which is the main reason the Suns went after him. The Warriors have won three of their last five against the Suns, including both meetings this season. The Suns should break their duck against the Warriors with a free-wheeling victory at home on Thursday. Get your Free NBA Pick in Now!
