They have as good a chance as anybody at losing to the Lakers in the conference Finals.
You know who's not making the playoffs? The Mavs, and only injuries to other contenders is changing that.
And if you think otherwise, you'd be wrong.

I think we have a better shot against the Lakers than, say, the Trailblazers, Hornets, or Rockets.
I said at the beginning of the season that the Rockets wouldn't make the playoffs, and I'm still sticking with that prediction (barring any upcoming trades). But I think Mavs fans should hope you guys don't make the playoffs, because it'll force your front office to start making some major (and long overdue) changes. Why Josh Howard is still a Mav is beyond me.
I have a feeling that if the Mavs crawl into the playoffs, and then win a few games against a better team, you guys might not see the changes you want to see.
If this start hasn't compelled our front office into dealing J-Ho I don't know what the else would.
FWIW, Kidd sucks too UGH
Dammit i was going to say that
But i will add this

The playoffs! Way to shoot for the stars Phoenix fans.
Maybe the Mavs can pull off some trade this year
Oh, my hopes for this team are much higher than just the 1st round, but I'm taking baby steps.
P.S. You might be the worst member on SpursTalk. You make BRHornet look like FromWayDowntown.
What happened to the Nash is done people from the start of the season?
What about the Shaq is done people from the off-season?
Suns v Lakers in the WCF baby.
All that shooting for the stars in your hype Bynum has worked out really well for you Lakers' fans hasn't it?
How was it watching him go for one rebound while a short-handed Yao had his lame ass riding the bench?
Shoot for the stars!

Suns-Lakers 1st round would be awesome.
Id love to see Shaq knock Kobe out of the playoffs
I think the Suns would be drawing dead against the Hornets, Lakers, and Spurs... they could beat anyone else though.
Not sure about the Spurs though. I know they've owned the Suns but conventional wisdom says the Suns would EVENTUALLY have to win a series against them.

Very nice. I didn't even have to make a case for his supreme douchosity.
The Suns age hits them at the 65 game mark and they go in a slump. Shaq reverts to his old ways from every team he has been on and starts demanding the ball goes through him. They implode and skimp into the playoffs as the 7th or 8th seed and get eliminated in 5 games by either the Spurs or Lakers. Hopefully the Lakers!
Followed shortly of course by all the Suns fans crying foul and that Stern and the refs rigged the whole thing.
So you agree that the Suns are making the playoffs. That's a start.
Wow, how gratifying for Suns fans to know that the trade for Shaq put their team firmly into the number 8 spot in the west.
Suns will make the PO's. But unless they are able to add some quality players to their bench the odds of surviving a 7 game series are really low.
They were a lot worse before the Shaq trade, and the cobwebs and dust collecting in Terry Porter's brain played a bigger role in the Suns being a bubble team this year. D'antoni had his issues but he knew what he was doing.
Well right now Phoenix would be on the road against New Orleans, so I'd much rather them slip in the standings to play Denver or something like that. The two teams they'll have absolutely no chance at beating are the Hornets or Spurs, beating the Lakers would be a long shot. The other teams (Utah, Denver, Portland) they play well against.
either jazz or rockets will miss the playoffs this season. I tend to vote for rockets who have lost both of their series to the jazz in the past two post-seasons in a row. but this time they are gonna be beaten by the jazz again in the regular season.
I'm not so sure about NO, maybe they're getting their acts together, but they seem somewhat fragile this year. The spurs? Ya, they'll be tough, but it all comes down to mental issues. If the suns have homecourt, I'd take the spurs, if not, it would be a death sentence.
The lakers are the team that scares me the most because I think they have the best bench in the west.
The Suns are 0-6 against New Orleans since last season. Call them soft but the Suns just make everything too easy for them, particularly for Chris Paul and David West. The Suns would get killed in a 7 game series against them. Sorry, just stating the obvious.
If the team that scares you the most is a team other than the Spurs then you musta just started watching the Suns this year.
Terry Porter is a joke.
He was suppose to come in and change the status quo.
Instead, he's slowly slipped back into every one of D'Antoni philosophies.
Small Rotation. Never gets on his guys etc.
Of course they're going to make the playoffs. I love Shaq, but I still want revenge for them knocking LA out twice.
