Spurs dominate Jazz, move onto NBA Finals

Yipes. The next time I doubt the Spurs, kick me in the face. Ok, not the face...too much of a problem area already--how about the shin? That'll work....

Tim Duncan and Tony Parker lead a balanced attack over the bewildered Jazz in Game 5 of the series, dominating them 109-84. Behind the duo's 21 points a piece, San Antonio had six players total with at least 9 points. But there was another feat worthy of mentioning, holding Utah to a measly 38% shooting. Coming off of games where this team, albeit that they were playing at home, the Jazz shot well over 50%, this was an accomplishment that brought the Western Conference title back to Texas.

What's next? Well, it's hard to say, although the vast majority of individuals say the Pistons are still a shoo-in to win the East. Although the series is knotted at 2-2, Detroit has 2 more games at home. This means that the Spurs will have at least a week to rest and get prepared for the Finals, which could make a significant difference in the outcome this late in the season.

Congrats to the Spurs!
