GSW must win in Arizona if they want to keep their playoff hopes, as small as possible, still alive. Phoenix has nothing to play for, since the fifth spot, can actually be worse for the Suns than the sixth spot, because there is little doubt that the Suns would rather play Spurs, than the Jazz. As I said many times, Suns got the perfect match up against the Spurs, with Shaq and Amare against Duncan and whatever Center that Spurs got to offer. Okur is the nightmare Center for Phoenix, since he shoots from mid range and three pointers and Shaq doesn't have the legs to guard the perimeter. So Suns maybe actually prefer to lose and even if not, they aren't really looking for that W, not like GSW anyway.

Golden State knows that if there any team that can lose a decisive game to Memphis, it's Denver. So I believe they will try to win today and put all the pressure on Nuggets in their final game and the odds that offered on GSW win are worth a shot for a small stakes bet.
