Having dropped all the way to the eleventh place in the West, the Suns might be looking at a year in the lottery if they do not improve their defensive intensity by leaps and bounds. Looking for a much needed win, Steve Nash and the Phoenix Suns will host the New Orleans Hornets at US Airways Center on Monday at 1 a.m. GMT.

Unlike the Suns, the Hornets are a much improved team compared to last year’s NBA campaign and are confident to make some noise in the Western Conference down the stretch. Hanging on to a 31-16 record, the team around Chris Paul played excellent team defense night in and night out and find itself right in the race for home-court advantage halfway through the 2010-11 season. Bound for another All-Star appearance appears to be Chris Paul as the point guard put up 16.4 points, 9.7 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 2.6 steals per contest while shooting 46% from beyond the arc. Therefore, the Hornets should have an edge when they take on the Suns on Monday.
