00:00Miami Heat are gonna take on the Phoenix Suns tonight and how about this

00:03matchup if we set the table for this one. 519, 520 on the rotation as the people

00:07always need the rotational number. Nine o'clock start tonight.

00:10Vanduul Sportsbook open this line at minus five and a half. You know where it

00:13currently sits right now, Dubsy? Still at minus five and a half as a favorite

00:17towards the home team Phoenix Suns. The total which opened up at 22 and a half

00:20that is now down slightly here to 221 even. The Phoenix Suns have gotten

00:25out to a very good start this year. Can they stay healthy and do damage in the

00:29Western Conference? But for tonight we just need to know if they're gonna do

00:32enough damage against the Miami Heat, Dubsy, to cover that five and a half. I

00:36think they will. They've been playing some really strong basketball here for

00:40the Suns. There's levels to this thing at home in their ballpark. They can put up

00:44plenty of points for Miami. Contrasting style of play. They really want to try

00:50and get you down to that defensive scrap with you know big Jimmy Barker spam out

00:54of by. But Kevin Durant's look fantastic, Donny. You know this is a player, a

00:58superstar that always garners the the naysayers and the doubters and you want

01:02to give him a hard time. But he's putting up monster minutes. He's scoring at a

01:06very high clip. You look at the starting five. Bradley Beal is looking like the

01:11old Bradley Beal. You've got Dee Book, Devin Booker. He's putting up some

01:14fantastic facilitating along with his scoring there as well. And then on the

01:19bench you've got a couple of weapons who are stepping up and adding. So at five and

01:22a half here I think it's all about the Suns in a big spot. They're one of the

01:26hottest teams to start in a new year and maybe they figured it out. It always

01:29looked like a team last season, last year where they're just sort of out of sync.

01:33They didn't have that chemistry but suddenly Kevin Durant looks happy. The

01:38rest of the Phoenix Suns, they're looking like they're vibing. And for the Miami

01:41Heat this is what you're gonna get. They're sitting at 500 through their

01:45first six games. They have been strong on the road. They're just gonna be

01:48middling to decent all year long and then Spolsha is gonna get them moving

01:53and grooving trying to make that playoff run. But I think this is a nice spot.

01:56Heat going on the road. Don't like that. The Suns at home. I think they heat up.
