Preview Roundups
March 02, 2015
Toronto at Philadelphia 7:00 PM ET
Toronto is presented with a nice opportunity to break out of a dismal slide when it visits Philadelphia on Monday. The Raptors are mired in a season-high five-game losing streak that has pushed them to the brink of dropping out of the second spot in the Eastern Conference playoff race, but they have won seven straight over the lowly 76ers. However, Toronto missed out on a similar opportunity at New York on Saturday, falling 103-98 to the last-place Knicks.
Golden State at Brooklyn 7:30 PM ET
The Golden State Warriors don’t get much time to celebrate an epic road comeback as they are back on the hardwood against the host Brooklyn Nets on Monday. Golden State trailed by 26 points near the midway point of the second quarter on Sunday before rallying to post a 106-101 victory over the Boston Celtics. Golden State has won seven of its last nine games and the contest at Brooklyn completes a stretch in which the Warriors play 10 of 11 games on the road.
Phoenix at Miami 7:30 PM ET
Goran Dragic could get his first crack at his former team when the Miami Heat host the Phoenix Suns on Monday. Dragic all but demanded a trade after seeing his role change with the offseason addition of Isaiah Thomas, and the Suns obliged by sending him to Miami last month and acquiring Brandon Knight from Milwaukee to take over the point guard role. The roster shakeup hasn't helped the Suns yet — they've lost nine of their last 12 to slip to 10th in the Western Conference.
L.A. Clippers at Minnesota 8:00 PM ET
The Los Angeles Clippers look to put the finishing touches on what has been a solid road trip when they visit Minnesota on Monday. After falling in a hard-fought game in Houston to begin the four-game voyage, the Clippers picked up solid victories at Memphis and Chicago with some of their best defensive efforts of the season. The Grizzlies were held to 79 points, one more than a season low for a Los Angeles opponent, and the Bulls shot a season-low 31 percent in the Clippers' 98-86 win Sunday.
New Orleans at Dallas 8:30 PM ET
Anthony Davis keeps sitting out and the New Orleans Pelicans keep winning games and they look to add another to a season-best five-game winning streak when they visit the Dallas Mavericks on Monday. Davis has missed the last four games with a shoulder injury and not having the All-Star forward hasn’t proven to be a problem with center Omer Asik averaging 12.5 rebounds during the stretch. Asik grabbed 16 – one shy of his season high – in Sunday’s 99-92 win over the Denver Nuggets.
