Phoenix Suns vs New Orleans Pelicans Picks and Predictions | NBA Best Bets For 1/19/24

Hello and welcome to the wager talk Studios on this third Friday of a new year if you have yet to hear maybe read or of course it’s possible you are quite aware of what the Suns the Phoenix Suns have morphed into now that the core group that was expected to begin the

Season playing as one is healthy and whole overall and trending to being more productive and efficient with each game played uh this Suns troop survived the first half of the Season despite having played more than 30 games without that the offseason addition the big contract addition of Beal from the

Wizards the Pelicans they made some changes over the last month offensive changes since mid December rotational changes second and third rotations the pels are 4-2 the last six games with the team’s victories coming over or against the Dallas Mavericks Charlotte Hornets Golden State and the Sacramento Kings

Phoenix has matched the pels mark the six the four and six four- two Mark over the six game stretch and they’re riding a three- game winning streak the Suns won this past Tuesday with a crazy crazy good 22 Point fourth quarter come from behind win over the

Over the Kings Phoenix 8 and3 since Beal returned from an ankle injury on December 29th while while it isn’t overwhelmingly evident that this team is starting to show uh uh their medal what they expected to be now that Beal’s healthy um they will very soon and and this is a

Group that I fully expect as long as they stay healthy uh to continue to Pro provide the evidence that they’re going to be one of the four or five teams in the west who will have a SW Swagger in March ready for the ready for the NBA title tournament now

Phoenix’s 119 117 win over Sacramento on Tuesday really did show that this group is committed they believe in their coach vogle they’ve verbalized it to the press and they trust him and they’re valuing each game which is important for a team that’s just creeped over 500 and and again finally become healthy effective

Efficient and competitive Uber competitive but the way New Orleans defeated Charlotte on Wednesday night they’ve won two in the last three and again they’re four and two in the last six and believing they’re a better team with the changes they’ve made now uh the suns are healthy as a whole despite

Having a pair of pieces tonight on the list injur list bulbo Damen Lee ruled out for the nights Tilton because New Orleans will not have the services of Matt Ryan each game played brings critical cohesion uh to this new new first five that vogle put together and

The work ahead for him of adjusting and tweaking the alternate rotations U is grabbing hold it’s making the Suns group difficult to ignore in reference to standing in front of this squad the metrics of the Suns roster the most efficient incredibly staggering numbers most recently those with the new

Combinations the second third rotations they provided evidence of the teams jump from pedestrian to competitive especially defensively when all of the three parts are on the floor playing as one the team’s overall net rating as well as our offensive and defensive efficiency all are part of the top five

In the league overall among the elite the considered Elite the return the return of Beal in combination with Devon Booker Kevin Grant as I mentioned staggering numbers the sun’s primary first five a rotation that is comp compile Dynamic statistics of Booker Beal Allan Durant nerve Che that’s the first five the starting five

The Suns own a plus 27.8 net rating average over 140 points per 100 possessions in non-garbage time per uh cleaning glass.com give them their credit Phoenix starting lineup of Grayson Allen ner Beal Booker Durant have put together a pretty efficient working model for Coach vogle eight and three straight up in the last

11 games well the spread’s not been real good 46 And1 that’s improving and it will improve and Vogal even talked about it not necessarily the spread but talked about improving their the margin of Victory some of these close games that they have failed because they were lacking depth and they do that’s the

Fragile part of this team is that if one of the big three goes down they’re a 500 team at best they need all three in the lineup um Durant much more versatile offensively and defensively than Williamson um and the everchanging defensive schemes that vogle is using per switching possession after

Possession has created adjustments uh for for Phoenix’s game night foes that they’ve done poor job adjusting too uh personally I haven’t hesitated to grab the coil of the sun steam early hav I will assume and I will continue supporting of this Phoenix group until they prove differently or prove me

Different wrong um I I’m ready to back them even before I examine the gay night m match up but obviously I will not push in until having done my due diligence but I like what our sons are bringing to the matchup one game night and I’m in

I’m in for now I’m in tonight the game minutes for the Suns big three they continue to grow tonight’s situation for a meeting with the Pelicans inside of the Smoothie Center favors Phoenix in a road dog position and across the board really all the variables are the Suns um

To keep hold and to play to uh and it’s going to require that really the home team tonight does some things differently to to come out on top the sun’s defense made a leap in efficiency since the first of the month tangible numbers that Beal provides the offense

Have opened up clean and unguarded takes from the three line particularly for Grayson Allen this this New Orleans overall the 112 points per allowed per game is four points higher than it was the first of January the negative regression schedule strength of New Orleans in question it puts them in a

Position of playing everything pretty close to the vest over the next month if they want to stay where they are which is the first the top of their division right now Beal Booker and Durant have played together in just 10 of 40 games but when they’re on the same page of the

Same book in the same rotation ridiculously dangerous um Beal averaging 20 shooting 53% in 11 games since his return as mentioned earlier his arrival has has allowed Booker to move from the point to the number two back and forth giving him a break from all the responsibilties that really lie on a

Point guard in this league Durant shooting 48% from three-point Lanes with with the return of Beal Allen 52% from the three line in on and around Beal’s return what has been the NBA’s worst fourth quarter team the Suns have turned in that fourth quarter 22-point comeback to show that as long as Beal’s

There they’re they’re that gives them the depth that very necessary for fourth quarter production and efficiency um when December arrived the suns were being outscored by an average of 15 points per 100 fourth quarter possessions that’s pretty miserable I trust these guys vogle says we have a

Roster that can win tonight the playing Big E he is grabbing the Suns plus the points and a small push at the Sportsbook counter with over the total a top player prop Grayson Allen over 12 1 12 points at even money I’m Tony Finn glad you came by see you tomorrow
