Yeah and in terms of efficiency they're not far behind in offense, either. A measley .007 (lol) points per possession.

They just showed they have the discipline to beat the Spurs, I wouldn't bet against them having enough to beat the Suns. They were doubling Duncan with their guard from the far side of the court and rotating early to the shooters and late to Parker. That takes a concentrated effort and was pretty impressive. They did get into foul trouble early and often (they aren't perfect) but if the best the Suns can hope for is to "trick" them into the same thing 4 times, thats not much to hope for.
