LOSS

This should be a high scoring affair. Phoenix is scoring 107.4 on the road and allowing 101.3. Detroit plays in a lot of low-scoring affairs but they'll try to keep it up-temp in this one to stay close to the high-flying Suns. Plus, Detroit's averaging 98 points per game over their last five games. Phoenix is 20-3 OVER when both teams score 98 or more points in a game this season. And get this... Detroit is 98-7 OVER when both teams score 98 or more points in a game since 1996. Phoenix is 7-1 OVER in a road game where the total is between 190 and 199.5 points this season. Games with a total between 190 and 199.5 points featuring an up-tempo team averaging 83 or more shots/game (i.e. Phoenix) against opponent hot shooting team - 3 straight games making >47% of their shots have gone OVER 50-22 (69%) of the time since 1996. Two stars on the OVER here.
