YTD 7-6, Even on units and money

After taking some time off to reflect my winnings and losses I am back in action.

I'm going with 1 play tonight

Phoenix Suns -6.5, 4 units, very strong play.

My system has them winning by 11 and I can see it being more like 15. SA played and lost a grueling game last night that they should have won, Phoenix is coming off a loss on the road. Being back home will give the Suns added incentive to start up another long win streak and what better team to do that against than the Spurs? maybe Dallas but who cares about that.

GO Suns!!

Good luck on the Suns tonite. Here are a few snippets from Steve Nash to support your play.

?It?s a great time of the year to challenge ourselves,? guard Steve Nash said. ?We haven?t played a ton of top teams lately, so to play the Spurs is something we?ve been waiting for. It?s important for us to see where we are.?

?We definitely seem to play better and at a higher level against the best teams. We haven?t necessarily beaten them all, but some of our wins we haven?t played at a high level. It?s good to challenge ourselves against a quality team, one we know will be there fighting for it in the playoffs.?

?You know the Spurs will be there,? Nash said. ?Everyone knows they have too much talent and experience. You?re going to have to beat them because they won?t beat themselves or be an easy out.?

The Suns haven?t been an easy out either. They have lost three games since Nov. 18, and in each case a superstar player (Gilbert Arenas of Washington, Dirk Nowitzki of Dallas and Garnett) needed huge nights to beat Phoenix. The T-Wolves? nine-point win (121-112) is the biggest ?blowout? over Phoenix all year.

?That?s a good sign because it?s difficult for a guy to carry his team every night in a playoff series,? Nash said. ?It?s going to take a special performance in the playoffs to beat us four times.?

LET THE SUNS SHINE TONITE!!! :00hour
