Basketball Betting Lines
02/06/2012 -
Atlanta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Steve Nash scored 24 points and handed out 11
assists, as the Phoenix Suns downed the Atlanta Hawks, 99-90 at Philips Arena.
Channing Frye contributed 19 points and nine rebounds, while Michael Redd and
Jared Dudley each netted 10 for the Suns, winners in three of their last four.
The Hawks, coming off a 5-1 stretch, have dropped three straight to open a
four-game homestand. Josh Smith and Joe Johnson totaled 18 and 17 points,
respectively in defeat.
Willie Green scored 12 of his 14 points in the fourth quarter, helping Atlanta
trim its 84-64 deficit entering the frame to nine, 94-85, with just over three
minutes left.
Frye hit a three-pointer to restore the double digit lead, and his putback
slam the next time down essentially put an end to Atlanta's comeback bid.
Nash scored 10 points in the first quarter en route to a 27-23 lead that
swelled to 43-27 following a 14-2 run early in the second.
Atlanta pulled within 55-48 at halftime, and was as close as two before
allowing the Suns to end the third quarter on a 24-6 flurry.
In the final minute alone, Markieff Morris drained a three-pointer, Marcin
Gortat threw down a dunk and Redd hit a jumper off a turnover to build a 20-
point cushion that was too much for the hosts to overcome.
