Maybe Dunkel is right and I agree trends are something to "consider" when betting a game, but the stat that Phoenix is 3-7 in their last 10 road games is meaningless in this situation. That is like saying Phoenix is undefeated in road games this year. They have played one road game this year and this team is significantly different than last years team. I just think some of these cappers throw out way too many insignificant stats. Good Luck whatever side you are on.
