Can the Suns win four straight to defeat the Lakers?

Yes they can, and I wish they do but I'm not so sure they will... however as they are not my team and I just hate the lakers, I would advise you to keep your faith up untill they are actually out, my best Sports experience was not winning the World Series in 2004 with the Red Sox (It was great!!!!) but was beating the Yanks from being down 3-0, everything is possible in Sports keep up your faith and Good luck.

Trick question. The 4-3 Phoenix win over the Lakers didn't get the Suns in the semis of the NBA play-offs. It got them in the semis of the NBA Western Conference Play-offs or, in other words, the quarter-finals of the NBA play-offs.

Maybe not.\n\nLakers did won the last five games, but Chris Paul only played 24 mins on 4/19, Steve Nash and Raja Bell didn't play on 4/16, Clppers was trying to lose to get the six seed.  The other two teams are Golden States and Portland.\n\nLakers lost three out of four games to Phoenix this year, the only winning game is the one on 4/16.  Those three games Lakers average lost more than 12 points.\n\nPhoenix is definitely easier than Spurs, but we'll see.

I think he has a good chance.  The Suns run a lot, so the Lakers will get lots of possessions, so Kobe will get a lot of shots.

Lakers will come close, but thet won't win. Kobe will have a good game, but that means no one else on the team will have 10 points. Lakers can't handle the Suns.

Kobe is always gettting better and better and he always surprises everyone when everyone thinks they have him figured out. Lakers are going to win against the Suns

why is this so hard to believe. The Lakers have one of the greatest coaches coaching them in the zenmaster. They have the best player in the nba in kobe bean bryant, and he came in with more chips on his shoulders because steve nash might have robbed the mvp award from him. And like you mentioned, they have a vastly improved luke walton, i have to give him credit for that because he was terrible a year ago, and lamar odom is a triple double threat any given night; he has been fantastic throughout the playoffs thus far. Also, Smush Parker's heroics and shutting down Steve Nash fairly well. Phil Jackson's Lakers have the better formula in their style of play to win in the playoffs, they play slow tempo and try to maintain control. The Suns play a more fast break style added with the three ball that they live or die on. Nash is their playmaker and locking him down breaks down the engine. The games have been close because of the freak of nature shawn marion, without him like you saw in the extra period of the last game, the suns could not buy many baskets other than on the perimeter. It never hurts to have the clutchest shooter in the game today either!

As much as I like Phoenix this year in the playoffs for beating LA twice, they have almost no chance against the Dallas Mavericks.\n\nThese guys almost lost the opening round to the Lakers. And they got taken to seven games by two of the three worst playoff teams in the Western Conference (the other being the Nuggets.) Had they been in the other bracket in the West, the Suns don't even make it out of the first round.  It doesn't matter who they play.  Yes, that means they would have even lost to the Grizzlies.\n\nDallas, meanwhile, knocked off the best Grizzlies team in franchise history, in a SWEEP.  Then they defeated the reigning NBA champions in a seven game series, closing out on the road, in an overtime game, overcoming rowdy fans, nearly the best game 7 comeback of all time, strong Spurs momentum from the previous two games and refs whistles getting rid of three of their best defensive players.\n\nThey MADE the Spurs play small ball against them. They dictated the pace of the games and won. They overcame falling just short in game 5, which they should have won (in which case I would be talking about how they knocked off the Spurs in FIVE).  They have the best individual player, the better defense, the better coach, home-field advantage, the more intimidating owner, better overall playmaking ability and offense (check out shot percentage), better free-throw shooting, better team colors, superior half-time show, I could go on and on...\n\nThis won't even go five games.  Mavs in 4.

They are currently 5th in the Western Conference right now, so they have a great shot. It might even be possible for them to pass Phoenix and take over the division, but I doubt that will happen. Of course, the #5 seed in the Western Conference has a really tough road, since they will probably have to play either Dallas or San Antonio in the first round (depending on who wins the Southwest Division). The NBA's playoff structure is really messed up.

I see the Phoenix Suns and Dallas Mavericks with the Suns winning in 6.

It looks like they'll be facing the Suns.  They have a legitimate chance of beating them because the Suns play no defense and the Lakers are not exactly inept on offense, especially with Kobe on the team.  Speaking of which, his experience and his ability to "turn it up" in the post-season will make the Lakers contenders ... at least until the next round.  The Lakers do play defense on the other hand and can make big stops if they need to.\n\nI am a Laker hater so I must be right!

In all seriousness it is very possible for the suns to win. Steve Nash has a good bunch of productive years ahead of him and Amare will be putting fear into the hearts of men for many years to come (you don't get called the future of the NBA by Shaq for no reason). A couple trades here and there and some smart money moves could have them winning it all before 2010.
