Spurs making it look easy

So maybe it "wasn't" an upset over Phoenix.

San Antonio, continuing to play their patented style of game against the Jazz, have leaped out to a 2-0 lead in the series, and it looks like Utah could be worrying about who they are going to draft for next year pretty soon.

What gives here? Really, nothing. No one really thought the Jazz had a chance, and in each game, the Spurs have jumped on Utah early, coasted, and then when things began to tighten up, kill them from the outside. It's got Deron Williams mystified, who commented that "every time we made a run, they hit a three...Those guys stepped up and hit shots. We didn't do a good job of defending the 3 and it hurt us." And on the other side, Bruce Bowen almost jokingly said "All of us were hitting shots".

Utah coach Jerry Sloan wasn't happy--he was quoted as saying, "They just took advantage of our inability to see what's going on." So, honestly--where's the potential turnaround here--honestly, there is none. Utah, be happy you made it this far, and have fun enjoying a Spurs-Pistons finals from your Salt Lake City homes.
