No. The Mavericks over the last 55 games have gone 50-5. The last team to do that? The Bulls, back in the early 90s, who won the championship that year. If you are able to beat them once, they are not beatable four times in a seven game series. They lost five games in the last 55. What makes you think they are going to lose four in a seven game period?

The Suns have the system and the talent to beat the Mavs, but they don't have what the championship teams have: defense. If you want to throw in point differential, but everybody's forgetting that the Suns have trouble with the elite teams in the West this year. Their 0-3 against the Jazz, 1-1 against the Spurs, 1-2 against the Lakers and 0-2 against the Mavs, not what you would call favorable. The main difference between the Mavs and the Suns are this, Dallas relies on their defense for offense (which is normal) and the Suns are offense first, they look to out score their opponent to the point that they have to take lower percentage shots, where as the Mavs are out to get more stops and attack the basket. When they do play it will definitely be a dogfight, but I'm gonna have to go with the Mavs.

Yes..they could. However, will they? I am going to have say no. The fact of the matter is that Dallas is 2-0 against the Sun's this season with 2 more games still left to play in the season series. Lets no forget that Dallas also has an amazing 50-9 this year. It's not just the sun's that have had a hard time with the Mav's this season, but every team. I mean crap guys, they've played almost 60 games and lost 9 of them. That's rediculous. And I see no signs of them slowing down in the future.

Yes of course. It all boils down to the number of weapons a team has. Eventually players tire down the stretch during the playoffs and if you only have one superstar compared to alot of superstars sharing the basketball, it can be a factor. Suns can definitely beat the Mavs.

Yes they can. The Suns can beat anybody. Everyone hates to play them cause the Suns. When the Suns play it is a sort of a streetball game without individuals. The Suns play great team ball when their general is on the floor and even he has a good liutenent when he comes in as his back up. Think about this...who in the NBA are trying to copy the Suns style of play. Everyone. Nobody in the NBA has the endurance to run like they do for one. Secondly...the Suns are improving on their defense.

Yes, they can. The Suns are loaded and could possibly win the NBA Championship this year.

Yes they can, as long as Steve Nash(going for his third MVP Award this year) and Shawn, and Amare and Raja and Barbosa just work togerther like always, they can pull off the win.
