the Suns.
year after year, especially since Steve Nash arrived, the Suns have been celebrated as the league favorite to win this or that.
for 3 consecutive years the sports media has raved over the possibility that Nash has finally got the Suns in the right position to win the championship (even without Amare)...so where's the ring people???
as a resident of Arizona, you wouldn't believe the way the locals cried (and are still crying ) bloody murder since the Spurs sent them on early Summer vacation.
the harsh reality of it all is that the Suns are not champions, yet they still get favor over champions. they are still looked upon as the favorites to win, and yet it hasn't happened.
i know Stern is trying to bring more excitement to the game, and so he's going to push (along with tv networks) to give more coverage to the teams that tend to excel offensively.
Point blank, the Suns are overrated.
interior defense, a legit center, and killer instinct.... all three are nowhere to be found on that team, and that is what will ultimately prevent them from being a champion.
*special mention to the Cavs. they probably couldn't even beat the Florida Gators!!! they only got as far as they did due to the refs....the weak east....and Lebron.

The Suns, people and fans of them actually thought they had a chance against the Spurs, you can say the Mavs are overrated but you really can't blame them since Don Nelson left a solid team for Avery Johnson to command, Nelson knows avery and the mavs inside out, so it's not really shocking if you look at it that way, just the fact that he did it with a #8 seed makes it look like the greatest upset in NBA history, he could of probably done that with any team against the mavs, seeing as how their performance was so horrible and were exposed by the Jazz, I just don't understand, why beat #1 seed if your just going to give your next series away to gay azz Utah and let the Spurs have a free trip to the finals.

I would love to say the Cavs, but they did make it to the finals. Of course, if the NBA went to a league-wide playoff system, then the Suns and Spurs would have been in the finals, so I am going to say the Mavericks. They should have won the Finals last year, and went out to a weak team in the first round this year.

From that list, it's definitely the Cavs. They better be careful and not take this years run to the finals too seriously. They just got lucky and the playoff "bracket" worked their way. If they don't add significant talent to that roster to play around the King, they might be a first or second round casualty in the East next year. I seriously wonder if they even make the playoffs if they had played this season in the West.

Western Conference most sensible and hard three groups: three.) Denver- Chauncey is there, the uncooked gamers skilled that they are able to be a championship contender, and everyone knows that they are bettering correct now. two.) San Antonio Spurs- The addition of Richard Jefferson, will made the Spurs extra flexible and more youthful. Resurgence of the decrepit roster, now, they want a gigantic guy to be at the most sensible once more. one million.) Los Angeles Lakers- They're the reigning champion, they have got the nice participant named Kobe Bryant, they are intensity, too proficient, and has now Ron Artest to aid them be extra flexible. Eastern Conference most sensible and hard three groups: three.) Boston Celtics- A healthful Kevin Garnett manner a different shot for a championship. two.) Orlando Magic- Vince Carter is there, a different athleticism, even on the age of 32, he nonetheless acquired the movements. Rashard, Dwight and Vince are going to be the trio to be careful. one million.) Cleveland Cavaliers- Shaquille O'neal, Ilgauskas, and Lebron James; that is a horrifying entrance court docket over there.

I think it is the Suns.
The suns because
-Steve Nash is getting older and he will become slow now
-their role players are not clutch ex. Barbosa was a big shot against the lakers he wasnt **** gainst the spurs
-Amare cant stop getting into foul trouble against good centers
-Not a above average defense team,kids defense wins rings
-dont have a solid powerforward
ok now sure they won over 60 games but choke in the playoffs
Also any other east team the eastern confrence just plain sucks *** the kings could have made the finals if they were in the east
CASE CLOSED

Mavs. They are so tough if you look at each players profile on paper but couldn't deliver in the stretch.
