There is a bit of a log jam taking place in the Western Conference in the early part of the season, with everyone struggling to keep pace with the Warriors and Spurs. There is in fact only a game and a half separating the 4th place Clippers from the Minnesota Timberwolves in 9th. A good run can catapult a team up the standings, and that is what the Phoenix Suns and Detroit Pistons will be looking for when they hook up in Detroit on Wednesday.

The Phoenix Suns (8-9) are clinging to the final playoff spot in the west right now, and are doing so courtesy of an offense that is top 3 in the league in points per game average. The fact that the Suns are sitting a game below .500 right now tells you pretty clearly that things are not quite as good on the defensive side of the court. The Suns have only kept an opponent under 100 points on one occasion this season, and that came in a loss to the San Antonio Spurs, who are not exactly known for their explosive offense. Phoenix are currently on a 6-game road trip, which they got off to an excellent start with a 107-102 win in Toronto. They will have a very winnable game in Brooklyn on Tuesday night before making the trip to Detroit on Wednesday. Phoenix are just 3-4 on the road this season, but they have a legitimate shot at getting over the .500 mark during this stretch of games.
