Phoenix's Steve Nash turned in another MVP performance, helping the Suns eliminate Dallas in Friday's
130-126 Game 6 overtime victory. Nash led the Suns back from a 16-point deficit and forced overtime with a 3-pointer in the closing seconds. Nash, who tallied 39 points, 12 assists and nine rebounds, put Phoenix on top for good with another 3-pointer early in overtime and combined with Shawn Marion to score 18 of the Suns' 19 points in the extra period. Marion finished with 38 points of his own and grabbed 16 rebounds. Phoenix will host San Antonio Sunday in Game 1 of the conference finals (3:30 p.m. ET on ABC).
