Recap | Box Score | Highlights

Tim Duncan and Tony Parker wasted no time showing how serious the San Antonio Spurs were about getting back into the NBA finals - immediately.

Duncan and Parker powered an early 14-0 spurt that featured perhaps the most dominant stretch the Spurs have played all postseason and the Utah Jazz never recovered, letting San Antonio cruise to a 109-84 victory Wednesday night and into the championship round for the third time in five years.

The title series begins June 7th in San Antonio.

Quote of the Game

“'Enjoy' is always like a happy word. People say how happy are you or how much do you enjoy? Winning at this level is a relief, and I've always said that, and losses are devastating. .”

- Coach Pop on how long he will enjoy the victory.


The Buzz

Who's next? In true Spurs-style the "celebration" for winning the West was quiet, and focused on the fact that they are still four wins away from their ultimate goal.

With their next opponent still unkown, questions abounded over who they'd wish to play. None of the coaches or players took the bait, but Robert Horry had the best answer, "Deeland... that's Detroit and Cleveland put together."



Key Stat...
29 The Spurs led wire-to-wire over the Jazz and their largest lead of the game was 29 points.
