The Phoenix Suns, the league's highest-scoring team, will host the Los Angeles Lakers and top scorer Kobe Bryant in Game 1 of their first-round series on Sunday.

The Suns went 54-28 during the regular season, while the Lakers compiled a 45-37 record. Phoenix won three of four games versus the Lakers during the regular season.

Oddsmakers like Phoenix to win this game, as they opened the Suns as 7-point home favorites. The total opened at 218 points.

Reigning league MVP Steve Nash led the Suns to their second straight Pacific Division title this season despite missing Amare Stoudemire for the bulk of the schedule.

Kobe Bryant will be called upon to lead the Lakers on offense, with head coach Phil Jackson back on the bench calling the shots for the underdogs.
