The Suns were listed in basketball playoffs betting probabilities as one-point favorites with a total of 221.5. Because the probabilities are so cLose, a lot of people believed that the Los Angeles Lakers would recover and win game 4. The Suns were 2.5 point favorites in Game 3 and won, but for Tuesday's game, they were only one point favorites. However, that seemed to be an important point since the Suns defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 115-106. Los Angeles got an excellent game from Kobe Bryant on Sunday, however they still fell short in Game 3. Kobe finished with 11 assists, 9 rebounds and 36 points. Paul Gasol also had a good game but not a lot of of the other Los Angeles players showed up. Lamar Odom was his usual inconsistent self as he didn't show up. In one game Odom is great and the next he disappears. The guards for Los Angeles didn't do anything and Center Andrew Bynum was a non-factor. The Suns got a coLossal game on Sunday from Amare Stoudemire, who had 11 rebounds and 42 points. The Suns made 37 free throws, seeming to be on the free throw line all the time. The free throw disparity between the two teams seemed pretty significant on Sunday. Los Angeles made 16 of 20 while the Suns made 37 of 42. Even though they Lost Game 3, the Los Angeles Lakers have been decent underdogs. Los Angeles are 7-3 vs the basketball playoffs betting probabilities in their last 10 playoff games as an underdog.

Los Angeles is nevertheless confident in spite of Losing the last two games of the series. "We understand that they're going to have a hot spell," said Los Angeles coach Phil Jackson dismissively. "A lot of those guys haven't had any success out there. So it's exciting for them to get it. But we didn't shut them down in the fourth, and that's the time to do it." The Phoenix Suns' reserve forward, Jared Dudley, disagreed. "If you play this game, you want to play the best," said Dudley. "This team's the best. Not only do we want to play, we want to win. We're not satisfied going 2-2. I'm not shocked." Now that the series score is even, the question is which team will in the end succeed in the playoffs and proceed on to the NBA Finals.
