Who's Going to Win the West?

I caught this item during the Mavericks-Suns game on TNT tonight, the results of the text message question of the night …

Who’s going to win the West?
Suns  52%
Mavericks  35%
Other  8%
Spurs  5%

It’s natural that TNT viewers would favor the two teams that they were watching when asked the question, but I’m surprised they picked the Suns over the Mavs. Maybe it’s because they recently had a 15 game win streak. Or its the well deserved popularity of Steve Nash. Or its that they missed the beating the Spurs gave the Jazz tonight.

No matter. Vegas oddsmakers know better.
