Suns haven't beaten the Mavs once this year. I don't see that trend changing in the playoffs.

Nash, Marion and Barbosa could run them to death. But unless they can sustain that for four out of seven games, Mavs have got it locked.

i dont know what u guys are talking about?!! the suns are a much better team now than they were in the beginning of the year, stoudemire is almost 100% unlike he was when the mavs beat us on a last second jumper by dirk.some might call that getting lucky...but yes ia said almost because we all know he can average 25 and 10, barbosa has also approved in the the last couple months shooting better than 40 % from 3 point range...so the mavs are going to have to pick their poison...dampier cant guard amare by himself so if the double him all he has to do is kick it out to almost anyone on the court for an open 3, and if u try to make nash a scorer he has the ability to torch the mavs for 40 or more...he has proved this. im not saying the suns will sweep the mavs but i do think they will take the series in 6 or 7

The Suns can turn the Mavs into the old Mavs. You know the Mavs teams in the early part of this decade that couldn't play defense, team w/ the last possession wins. Saying that, becuz the Suns only play 7 1/2 guys tops, tha Mavs would win in 6.

If the Suns and the Mavs play eachother in the playoffs, it will go to 6 or 7 games. I don't think there will be a sweep.

The name Tonya Harding comes to mind. Maybe Steve Nash needs to improve his relationship with Dirk Nowitzski to the point that Dirk doesn't want to hurt Steve's feelings by causing him grief. Actually though, the Suns could improve their defense and learn to be effective in the half court to provide a better challenge. Limiting their three point shots might also ease the terrible droughts they experience in the playoffs enough to put them past the Mavericks. But D'Antoni probably will go with more of the same...

Well the Suns will use Stodomire for defense & short shots. They'll use Marion for long threes and for some d. Last Nash with all the assists. Nash we'll make a ton of pts. to.
