Match preview: Phoenix Suns - Portland Trail Blazers 2010-04-21 (NBA)

Picking it up on the offensive end

Phoenix quite surprisingly lost Game 1 of this series and mostly due to its poor offensive performance. The Suns are all about uptempo and shooting threes, and they had a poor shooting game. Grant Hill and Jason Richardson were a combined 1 of 10 shooting in the first half and 4 of 21 for the game. Jared Dudley, fourth in the NBA in 3-point percentage in the regular season (46 percent), was 1 of 5 from long range. bet now

A test for the defense

It was obvious that the Suns didn`t pay much attention to defense and allowed Portland to shoot 47% from the field. I have a feeling the Trail Blazers won`t have much difficulties to score in Game 2 either, but will probably have to adjust some things on the other side of the court. Defense will be the decisive factor in this one. online betting

Crucial game of the series

Game 1 loss puts more pressure on the Suns and now they have to go all-in. Look for Phoenix to come out with more energy and attack the basket more. Steve Nash is a veteran and knows that his team will have to be more aggressive. The Trail Blazers could now play a bit more relaxed, knowing that they won a road game, but they will still have to be careful to not let their opponents get too comfortable. Although the Suns` shot was awful in the first match, the game still landed OVER the total. All of which means looks for even more scoring in Game 2. bet online
