I just can't see Phoenix beating San Antonio with their top five players getting 45+ minutes a game. That, and their so-called "overpowering" offense just doesn't impress me at all; much like Miami, they haven't really played anyone yet.
I think the Suns have beaten the most difficult opponent of any of the conference finalists to this point in the Mavs. Seattle and Denver weren't tougher for the Spurs, Miami hasn't played a tough team yet, and Detroit played poorly enough to make Indy appear to be a tough team. I think the Mavs series was definitely good for the Suns to face some adversity and be tested prior to playing against the Spurs, but I wonder if it won't have taken too much out of Nash. He really had to step up his scoring in the last three games just to get the Suns to advance.
Still, I'm having trouble picking which of these teams will win, but my instincts say the Spurs in 7.
