    Ok so spurs are in the finals and will likely win the title

    but who has given them the most trouble..i would say the suns.Spurs weren't really in control of that series til the end unlike the other two...marbury killed parker in almost every game..amare give duncan problems with his quicknest and rebounding...marion on the wing..and even penny with the mid-range jumper

    lakers of course were problems..but spurs were always in control on the series..up 2-0....and in the end won in 6....in the mavs series...up 3-1 and mavs battled back but still lost in 6..so suns give spurs the most problems..they match-up so well with SA..and have a great PG., a possible future superstar in amare.along with another allstar in marion.

    Suns and Mavs.

    But I am leaning towards the Mavs more, in some games they actually made the Spurs play catch up.

    yea, amare IMPROVED would be insane. he's better than most of the power forwards in the east, and he'll only get better

    Did you remember the 1st and the 5th, and 6th game? Uh, yeah, they were there...just that the Mavs slowed down like a snail in 4th quarter...they weren't easy as the Spurs expected...the Spurs had to work for it...remember these word from Coach Popovich, "They're even more dangerous without Dirk. It's like they're unpredictable..."? Just trying to make a point.

    If Marbury wouldnt have gotten hurt the suns could have beaten them. Next year the suns will be a top five seed in the west.
