| Friday NBA Preview: Phoenix vs. Houston |
For the best basketball betting sportsbook check out Bet Phoenix for all of the latest wagering odds in the NBA. Kevin Martin has provided plenty of offense since returning, but the Houston Rockets have seemingly suffered on defense. The Rockets are looking to shore up things on that end of the court before opening a lengthy road trip, though they could have trouble doing so Friday night against Steve Nash and the Phoenix Suns. Both Nash and the Suns are coming off their highest-scoring games of the season, with the two-time MVP’s 30 points keying a 120-103 victory in New Orleans on Wednesday. Phoenix (8-13) has won the last seven meetings with Houston (12-10) when Nash has played, averaging 115.7 points. An injured Nash missed the most recent matchup as the Rockets ended their seven-game skid in the series with a 95-93 home win March 14. Martin’s 13.9 career scoring average versus Phoenix is his lowest against any opponent, and the Suns were one of three Western Conference teams against which he failed to average at least 20.0 last season. However, Houston has lost both games since his return while its opponents - Minnesota and San Antonio - averaged 109.5 points and shot 52.0 percent. The Rockets won on consecutive nights when he was out, holding both Washington and New York under 85 points and 39.0 percent shooting. A third straight loss Friday could be a tough blow to the Rockets before they begin a six-game trip Saturday in Minnesota. They’re 3-7 away from home - all three victories were against sub-.500 teams - compared to 9-3 in Houston. Phoenix is 3-2 in road games after winning only one of its first six. They could get a win against Houston if the Rockets defense continues to fail.
