Happy Returns: Nash leads Phoenix over ClipsBasketball Betting Lines02/21/2007 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Steve Nash scored 13 points and dished out 12 assists before spending a large chunk of the second half enjoying his return to the lineup from the bench, as Phoenix cruised from the outset in a 115-90 rout of the Los Angeles Clippers at the Staples Center. Nash missed four games with a sore right shoulder, then didn't play in the All-Star Game on Sunday. He looked every bit the All-Star on Tuesday night in Los Angeles, connecting on 5-of-11 from the floor and handing out 12 assists to 4 turnovers. Shawn Marion and Amare Stoudemire were the recipients of Nash's dishes, finishing with 31 and 22 points respectively. Both players also grabbed nine rebounds, as the Suns outrebounded the Clippers 50-38 in snapping a three-game skid. Corey Maggette led the Clippers with 19 points, Elton Brand had 17 points and Daniel Ewing totaled 16 points in the loss. Sam Cassell didn't play in the second half, Chris Kaman missed the contest with the flu and Doug Christie stated publicly he just doesn't want to play for the club anymore. In a state of flux, Los Angeles has dropped four straight and six of seven. Phoenix stepped on the gas from the beginning, going on a 14-3 spurt to open a 33-19 edge in the first stanza. Stoudemire and James Jones capped the stretch with back-to-back jumpers. After three straight jumpers from Maggette cut the deficit to 54-45 late in the first half, Phoenix reeled off eight straight points capped by Stoudemire's driving slam as the seconds ticked toward intermission. Phoenix scored nine in a row during the midway point of the third stanza, and Nash finished it off with a driving layup for an 83-61 advantage with 4:32 remaining. The Suns cruised to victory from there. Game Notes Boris Diaw didn't play with back spasms...Phoenix improved to 20-7 away from home...The Clippers dropped to 17-10 on the road...Attendance was 19,898.

Work left to do: Villanova, Syracuse, DePaul, West Virginia, Providence Work left to do: Villanova [18-9 (7-7), RPI: 21, SOS: 5] Pounded Rutgers to get back to .500. If Cats can get their last two (at UConn, vs. Syracuse), that should be enough with strong computer numbers and a host of wins away from The Pavilion. The Cats have beaten Texas and swept the Big 5 (never easy in Philly), but have a couple of losses to bubble teams (Xavier, Drexel), too. I still think they'll be OK, possibly even at 8-8. Syracuse [20-8 (9-5), RPI: 53, SOS: 62] History says 10 wins will be plenty, but it might be hard for the Orange to get that last one with a final two vs. G'town, which is trying to win the league title, and at Villanova, which will be desperate for a W. The relative lack of nonconference heft and the weak computer numbers are still concerns, but the Orange have won four in a row and got a very, very big win at Providence on Saturday. DePaul [16-12 (8-7), RPI: 54, SOS: 18] Beat Cincy and should get past South Florida to get to 9-7, but then what? They have beaten Kansas and Cal (right after the DeVon Hardin injury) earlier this season, but also have lost to Bradley and Purdue, among others. They'll likely need a couple of BE tourney wins, too, but we'll see ... West Virginia [19-7 (8-6), RPI: 58, SOS: 125] The game at Pitt on Tuesday night could decide the Mountaineers' fate (barring a deep tournament run). They can still get to 9-7 in the Big East without it by beating Cincinnati, but the nine wins would be against UConn, Villanova, St. John's, South Florida, DePaul, Rutgers, Seton Hall twice and the Bearcats. Beating bubble foes is fine, but where's the beef? Outside of beating PG-less UCLA in nonconference play (still a top quality win), there's not a lot to fall back on (besides maybe NC State). WVU vs. Syracuse would be an interesting debate, as the teams don't play in the Big East regular season. WVU has the best win, but Cuse has played the much better schedule. Providence [17-10 (7-7), RPI: 70, SOS: 33] The Friars likely saw their at-large hopes die at home in the four-point loss to Syracuse, barring an unexpected run to the Big East semis or more. The RPI, bad already, won't be helped by playing St. John's and South Florida in the final two league games.
