Portland blew two late leads in Saturday's home contest vs the Wizards.

Then in OT, Portland couldn't hold a 124-123 lead under a minute to play before losing 125-124. That long, hard fought game on Saturday will show here tonight. Yes, the Suns have a horrible defense, ranked 29th in the league. However, Portland isn't much better, ranked just 26th. It's not often I like to play on bad teams, but this is a very good spot for Phoenix, which should grab the home win. Play Phoenix.
