Winners and Whiners: Suns will cover against Spurs
Michael Briggs writes: "Phoenix won't be 100 percent healthy on Tuesday, but this team is still good enough to cover against the inexperienced Spurs. Even with the highly-touted rookie, San Antonio ranks last in the NBA in both schedule-adjusted offensive rating and adjusted defensive rating. Its opponents have been especially dominant within five feet, shooting 74.5 percent at the rim. That spells disaster against a Phoenix team shooting 68.8 percent at the rim, the third-highest Rim% in the NBA."
