The three-time defending Pacific Division champion Phoenix Suns are again in first place despite not playing with their usual high intensity lately. A matchup against the Toronto Raptors may help to regain that swagger.
The Suns look to sweep their fourth straight season series over the Raptors on Saturday night at US Airways Center.
The Raptors (15-13) are coming off a 123-115 loss to Seattle on Friday, as their late rally came up short. Toronto trailed by 18 with 4:09 left in the fourth quarter, before pulling within five with 36 seconds left.
So despite a good finish yesterday Raptors ended up losing to one of the worsts team from the league. Tonight the are facing one of the best sides in the league sow they might end up losing big figures because when Phoenix starts to fire they don't stop until they smash you and they are hungry for wins as lately they weren't so lucky.
My opinion is that Toronto will lose this double digits as they are playing back to back nights, the games are both away and they haven won in Phoenix since a 101-94 victory on Feb. 10, 2004. Also The Suns have won seven of 10 at home this season.
