In this matchup his loss should not be felt too much especially.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63727&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n No Dwight Howard has been meaning more time for the likes of Donatas Motiejunas and Joey Dorsey.<\/p>\n Motiejunas looks like he has some game but more than anything it means that this team plays a little smaller with the likes of Josh Smith and Terrence Jones off the bench.<\/p>\n No Howard means more of the scoring load falls on James Harden but that doesn\u2019t bother him at all.<\/p>\n He dropped 45 against Portland in the loss.<\/p>\n The Suns are going through a bit of a rough patch, losing 4 of their last 5.<\/p>\n This is their last game before the break and they will be looking to have some momentum to carry through their 10 day layoff. These teams met just a few weeks ago with Houston winning by just a couple of points, also at Phoenix.<\/p>\n Howard was a non-factor in that game but the Suns still couldn\u2019t close it out.<\/p>\n The Suns are in a fight for that final playoff spot in the West and have to take advantage of every opportunity at home. They are not a huge road threat.<\/p>\n Leading scorer Eric Bledsoe missed the Suns last game for personal reasons but is expected to be back in the lineup Tuesday night.<\/p>\n The truth is on any given night the top point getter for Phoenix could be one of any six players, all of whom are averaging at least 10ppg.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63741&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n Phoenix can be a hard team to handle but they also only really have one way to win. With C Alex Len out they are even more limited.<\/p>\n I think this spot sets up nicely for the Suns.<\/p>\n\n
