Suns attempt to continue dominance over Blazers

Basketball Betting Lines

11/01/2008 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Phoenix Suns will attempt to get back on the winning track when they welcome the Portland Trail Blazers to US Airways Center Saturday.

New Orleans' star point guard Chris Paul barely missed a triple-double with 20 points, eight rebounds and 10 assists as the Hornets bested the Suns, 108-95, in Phoenix on Thursday.

Steve Nash had 24 points and nine assists to pace the Suns, who opened the season with a 103-98 road victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday.

Amare Stoudemire finished with 21 points and 12 rebounds, but Shaquille O'Neal was limited to eight points and eight boards in just 22 minutes.

The Suns have owned the Blazers in recent years, winning nine straight and 13 of their last 14 meetings with Portland.

For the Blazers, Brandon Roy scored 26 points on 10-of-18 shooting to help Portland hold off the Spurs for a thrilling 100-99 triumph at the Rose Garden Friday.

LaMarcus Aldridge added 23 points on 10-of-22 field goals for the Trail Blazers, who bounced back from a rough opening-night against the Los Angeles Lakers in which the team lost the services of promising center Greg Oden.

Oden, who missed all of last season after undergoing microfracture surgery on his right knee, sprained his right foot while attacking the glass in a battle with the Lakers' Andrew Bynum and Derek Fisher.

The 7-footer is expected to miss two-to-four weeks and veteran Joel Przybilla has taken over in the middle for the Blazers, meaning the long awaited initial matchup between O'Neal and Oden will have to wait.
