Red-hot Suns try to keep rolling at expense of Nets

Basketball Betting Lines

03/31/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A pair of teams coming off important wins get together this evening at the Meadowlands, as the Phoenix Suns try to extend the NBA's longest active win streak to nine games when they take on the New Jersey Nets.

Phoenix won its eighth straight contest and clinched its fifth playoff berth in six years with Tuesday's 111-105 triumph at Chicago, a win led by a game- high 27 points from Jason Richardson. Channing Frye hit the go-ahead three- pointer with 41.6 seconds remaining, while Steve Nash scored nine of his 22 points in the fourth quarter and dished out 10 assists for Phoenix, which is 2-0 on a five-game road trip and won its fourth in a row as the guest.

"We knew how big this game was, if we win we clinch," Richardson said after the Suns improved to 10-2 in their last 12 road tilts. "We're trying to keep our fourth spot, move up to third or even second. It definitely was a must- win."

Amare Stoudemire tallied 21 points and 11 rebounds in the victory.

The Suns are currently fourth in the Western Conference and sit just a half- game behind No. 3 Utah. Dallas is only a game in front of Phoenix in the two spot.

Phoenix will also visit Detroit and Milwaukee on this trek and is 19-17 away from home this season. They are an NBA-best 17-4 since the All-Star break and haven't won nine in a row since a franchise-high 17-game winning streak from December 29-January 28 of the 2006-07 campaign.

New Jersey avoided NBA futility with its 10th win of the season, a 90-84 decision over the San Antonio Spurs on Monday in the opener of a three-game homestand. The Nets were on the cusp of tying the 1972-73 Philadelphia 76ers for the worst record in NBA history (9-73), but got 22 points and 12 rebounds from team MVP Brook Lopez.

The only Net to start every game this season, Lopez is ranked third among all NBA centers in scoring at 19.1 ppg. He is one of only four players in the NBA to lead their team in points, rebounds and blocks (Dwight Howard, Tim Duncan, Chris Kaman) and recorded his 32nd double-double in the win over the Spurs.

"I'm happy for the guys. I'm happy they continued to work hard and improve," Nets interim head coach Kiki Vandeweghe said after officially avoiding the dubious mark. "We were playing for pride. We stepped up and fought as hard as we could."

Courtney Lee scored 19 points and Devin Harris tallied 17 with nine assists for New Jersey, which committed a franchise-low four turnovers and won for the third time in its last four tries.

The Nets have won three in a row at home and will also welcome New Orleans to town on this residency. They own a 6-31 ledger as the host.

Phoenix hopes to sweep the season series from New Jersey for the third time in the last four years and recorded a 118-94 victory back in January in the Valley of the Sun. The Suns have won six of seven and 15 of their last 21 matchups with the Nets, who have lost three straight as the host in this set.
