NBA - Phoenix Suns vs Washington Wizards Basketball betting preview

Washington Wizards have been struggling and there is no secret about it. With the absence of Caron Butler, they have only hit 100 once in their last 6 games, and that was exactly 100 on the nose in the lose to Denver, who never play any defense.

In addition, replacement point guard Antonio Daniels limped off during that game, and is highly doubtful for tonights game. With nobody on the team stepping up to score other than Antawn Jamison and on ocassions Andray Blatche, its going to look difficult for them to put points on the board.

The Suns are now more defensive focussed since the trade for Shaq, and until the Big Diesel is fit, which could be sometime later this week, they have to focus on that and insert Boris Diaw into the starting lineup.

In addition, for all those who saw the lat game of the Suns against Seattle, they were very much focussed on getting to the charity stripe, where they left the game with a franchise record 25 for 25 from the line and thus getting lot of people into foul trouble, which might worry Wizards who are short of players as it is.
