San Antonio Spurs Western Conference Champions

31/05/2007

Congratulations to the San Antonio Spurs! This years Western Conference Champions.

If you didn’t watch the game, it wasn’t even close. Tim Duncan and Tony parker wasted zero time showing how serious they were about getting back to the NBA Finals. The Spurs came out of the gates on fire scoring 34 points in the first quarter as opposed to the Jazz scoring only 15. The rest is history, literally.

Closing out Utah today is great news for the San Antonio. Not only because of the obvious reason of advancing, but also the extra rest they get. This is much needed considering they have a bunch of old guys on the team. The NBA Finals start next Thursday.

Utah has nothing to be ashamed of either. Hell of a run they had. They definitely shocked me getting this far. I actually had them losing to Houston in the first round. They picked up a great amount of experience during this run, something you can’t put a price on. Add that to the deadly combo of Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer, how can you NOT see them continue getting better in the future? If they can pick up a good Shooting Guard … watch out Western Conference!

Onto today’s results. Had a very nice day only losing my Tigers bet. They were up 3-1 and decided to get rolled I still have my 3 team teaser pending. The first two parts of it hit with the Spurs ML & Jazz/Spurs over 181.5 Now I just need the Cavs tomorrow to either win or lose by less than 12.5 points. I seriously doubt the Cavs lose by anything close to that and to be honest, I wouldn’t be surprised if they won. Still think the Pistons are the better team though.
