Spurs might not lose again this year. Mormons gonna see a great team Saturday.
All those records are made to be broken, don't see Utah holding his house ... they'll lost 1 or two of them.
Believe me they'll star next game as wolves pursuing a rabbit, but in 3q and 4q ... Spurs will handle all those kiddos.
Its a tall task winning in Salt Lake City, but its not impossible. Sure, the Spurs lost both road games there this year, but I think up until last year the Spurs had won around 18 straight against Utah...including IN Utah. And before mentioning about the playoffs being an entirely different animal, remember how good the Spurs are on the road in the playoffs. They are already confident and their Big 3 playing very well, now I expect them to head to Utah with supreme focus.
Not sure why there's such a love fest going on here for the Jazz. Fisher's a great guy, I love Boozer, Williams is the real deal etc....
Spurs fans need to recognize that this series is far from over and that historically, this team, coached by the same man has kicked salt into our eyes while pissing on our backs.
If we bring the same mindset and the 24 turnovers to Utah, we lose by 35 points. Then what will people be saying about the Jazz?
Totally different team, totally different era, totally overrated.
Quit living in the past, guys.
Ask the Houston Rockets what a 2-0 lead against the Jazz got them.
ok man, i'll work on the bank shot after practice today.
Although we may never have won a playoff game in Utah, I think you must admit things are vastly different since the last time Utah even made the playoffs.
Looks to me like the Spurs just do whatever they want to this team. Spurs have owned the second quarter so far. I don't know why you think Utah being at home is going to change this.
I was skeptical of the ones that started crying "sweep", but after the last 2, I'm beginning to think it is entirely possible.
We win game 3, the Spurs sweep if they want to, unless they prefer to eliminate them at home.
The crisp ball movement, the brilliant passes, the stellar defense..........Jazz doesn't have an answer for any of it.
Only way I see Spurs losing a game is if they just come out lethargic, and like Tony keeps saying, they learned their lesson from last year.
The Spurs are a team on a mission. To garner what most probably should be their 5th championship. To show everyone last years WCF was a fluke, and that they still have what it takes, despite the cries of many fans to trade off half the team.
No doubt in my mind you are watching a basketball machine in motion.
hahah are you serious??
DAMN I hate it that the game is SAT......what the is that.
Spurs in the playoffs>>>>>>>>>>>>

especially on the road. i remember going to game 3 last year in the Mavs series and there were so many times that the Mavs couldve pulled away but SA never lost focus, and kept executing and making it close. even though they lost i believe they will win one out of the next two
Adding Okur to the list of NBA flukes: Dwight Howard, Carmelo Anthony, Allen Iverson, the Dallas Mavericks, the Houston Rockets, the Phoenix Suns, Mehmet Okur.
I remember a simpler time when SpursDynasty was banned, and people weren't driven to slaughter kittens by his stupid post calling everyone in the playoffs but SA flukes.
BS we dont have to win. We need atleast one. WE CANNOT GO BACK TO SA TIED 2-2!!!!!!!!!!!
The next time we play in S.A. either needs to be a closeout game or even better in the finals!
One stat is that only 2 teams in 70+ conference finals have come back from 0-2, if I heard correctly last night.
Sweep is fine, but let's at least split in SLC. We don't want to start over at 2-2, even with HCA.
Arguments for Utah Win: It's a hostile environment.
Rebuttal: More hostile than Game 5 in PHX?
Utah: We play better a home.
Rebuttal: In playoffs, Spurs play better on road.
Utah: ....
Look, I think it will be Spurs in 5. We'll lose one in Utah, because the Spurs are due for a loss after winning 4 straight playoff games.
But I don't buy the argument that Utah will win in SLC just because.
Guys...I know all of you are feeling confident (rightfully so) BUT I really believe this series will be tied up 2-2 after game 4. Why do I feel this way? Several reasons but the most important is that we're 9-0 this year when I attend Jazz games and I'll be at games 3 and 4
If that stat doesn't impress you guys then no stat I can throw at you will.
Well, I guess that's a better reason than "just because"!
Things are about to change...
Go Spurs Go!![]()
Maybe we should have you kidnapped???![]()

Yeah, Houston and SA have the same amt of experience in how to close out a series.
