#704 DALLAS (-) over Phoenix by 12 at 8:30 PM EST
Last year, the Mavs and Suns met in the second round of the NBA Playoffs and Phoenix took the series 4-2. Rest assured, even after that grueling series with the defending champs, Dallas will be ready for this contest. ,br>
In case you forgot, in game one last year, the Mavericks (+7) strolled into the desert and got blasted 127-102. Dallas head coach Avery Johnson will make sure that won't happen again.
There are two technical situations that go against the Suns. First, road underdogs coming off a 20-point or more playoff home win are a soft 12-33 SU and 18-27 ATS. Second, pups priced at +11' or less are a stiff 2-17 SU And 5-14 ATS provided they won straight up in a game seven matchup last. Both situations go against Phoenix.
Dallas has posted a strong 27-4 SU and 19-12 ATS record in its last 31 home games and the Mavs are on a mission. Take DALLAS minus the points. Thank you and best of luck, Tom Stryker.
