Phoenix at Denver

February 3, 2010
img10:35 PM Eastern

This line is set sky high, but I still think the game goes OVER this total. Denver home games have averaged 214 points per game while Phoenix road games average 217 points per game. They score on average 9 points per game more than their opponents give up on average. Denver allows 102 per game, so it's not unreasonable to see Phoenix get to 110+ here. Denver averages 107 per game (113 at home). They score 7 points more than their opponents typically give up. The Suns allow 110 per game on the road, so again, seeing Denver get to 110+ here isn't unreasonable at all. When facing a team that averages 100+ points per game the past three seasons, Phoenix is 60% OVER (60-40). I expect fireworks in this game and an OVER.
