OK, I'm on the Suns' bandwagon. Phoenix is the lone unbeaten team in the Orlando bubble. The Suns suddenly are live for a playoff spot. They are playing at a high level and will have the best player on the court with Devin Booker as Jimmy Butler is out. The Heat are 6-7 this season when Butler hasn't played.
The Heat also likely will be without Goran Dragic. He's not 100 percent recovered from an ankle injury. This has put added pressure on rookie Kendrick Nunn, who is struggling without Butler and Dragic out. Nunn has missed 23 of his last 30 shots.
The Heat have clinched their playoff berth so they don't have the incentive and intensity the Suns have.
