The first was their opening game against SA. They were able to handle an injured Spurs team in their opener for Terry Porter. That would not last long as they lost the next night to the Hornets. Their 2nd quality win was a few weeks ago against the Lakers. The Lakers decided that they really were not interested in playing that night and Shaq was determined to beat the hell out of Kobe.

The Suns are also the worst team in clutch situations. If this game is close, which I expect it to be, they are going to lose it. This team has had more heart-breaking losses than any team in the NBA this year. They love to blow 10pt fourth quarter leads. They do it like its their damn jobs.

Once again, let me repeat that I am a suns and shaq fanatic. But, I also know when to bet against them. I'm not so sure about the over/under, but Denver + 3.5 is my only play right now.

good luck with your play, nba, as i was almost there with you but decided to go another route

I thought you didn't watch the NBA? Yes, the Nuggs have been poor as of late on the road, but can you tell me the last time the Suns won a crucial game?

Never is the answer actually.

For as much press that the Nuggets' Carmelo Anthony generated for refusing to sub out of a game, the real crisis facing Denver is its inability to win on the road. The Nuggets finally snapped a six-game road losing streak by rallying from a 17-point deficit to beat the Grizzlies in Memphis, 111-109, last week.

Denver coach George Karl emphasized that win's importance as the Nuggets prepare to play six of their final 12 games on the road, including a three-game road swing against potential Western Conference playoff teams. The trip starts Monday in Phoenix and is followed by New Orleans on Wednesday and Dallas on Friday.

"A losing streak always has a kind of heaviness to it," Karl told NBA.com on Thursday. "I like getting over that hump where next week we have three very tough road games and I think because of the release of the burden of having a losing streak we will go after those games with a little more confidence and a little more energy that we would have with being kind of tied up by the losing streak."
