Charlotte Hornets at Phoenix Suns Prediction
We have done it before and we will do it again, fade Charlotte on the road. The Hornets have been an excellent team to lay when they are away from home and when they are spotting points they are an even better target. The stock on the Suns is through the floor to say the least. With this being said, the market assessment of this outfit is rather cautious given the fact no one likely wants to buy a piece of the Suns given their status at this point. The fact remains, though the Suns have performed terribly this year in the wins and losses department, they remain a near .500 team in against the spread markets. In fact, the Suns have been a better play from this angle when compared to the Hornets who have a better overall record. Not too long ago Charlotte was sitting in a position to own a playoff seed but due to a nasty skid they embarked upon before the All-Star break, the Hornets find themselves in a dog fight for post-season contention. Currently, Charlotte is on the outside looking in and this contest can easily be another snare for the Hornets to get caught in.
