Phoenix at Oklahoma City

Phoenix opened its season with an 83-124 loss at Portland, then beat Golden State 131-122 on Saturday. Phoenix followed a 41-point loss with a nine-point win in its very next game. Across those two games, the Suns allowed 123 points a game. Saturday's 131 shows what the offense does when the shots fall, and Jordan Ott is back for a second season with the group that went 45-37 last year. Phoenix also went 47-33-2 against the spread last season, while Oklahoma City went 39-42-1. The Thunder are 3-0, and in two of those wins they scored 116 at San Antonio and 96 against Denver. Oklahoma City played on Sunday, and Phoenix last took the floor Saturday, so the Suns have the extra day. A road team that just put up 131 and a favorite whose scoring has ranged from 96 to 116 in two of its wins leave plenty of room on a big spread, so I'm taking the Suns with the points tonight.
