LA and Memphis are quite a bit better than Utah. The Spurs better be ready to get punched in the mouth during the next round, because the playoffs aren't ever this easy after the first round.
Nothing is impossible for this motivated team including sweeping the compe ion into the WCF and beyond. How can anyone doubth this based on the dominating fashion that they have finished the regular season and began the playoffs? Even when the Spurs had their first relatively bad game in two weeks and let up the gas a few times against the Jazz, they still won by six on the road against a team with an excellent home record.
Therefore, either opponent (I predicted the Clipps before the playoffs would beat the over-hyped Grizz) will need to bring their A game or da Spurs going to get out the brooms again!

Spurs in 6
and Timmy will be the all-time block playoffs leader after that series
It will be the Spurs first time to be tested. How will they respond?
I would say get ready to be slapped in the mouth, as long as we counter with a punch we'll be fine. I know we had that one weird game we stole. But the first game we dominated them and they needed mo williams to have the game of his life and Tony to sit out to beat us.
Fail, and you're going to see next round how wrong you are. The Jazz have no defense and no shooting, and precious little athleticism on their front line outside of Favors.
You also forgot DeAndre Jordan and Reggie Evans for the Clips. Just the starting center. No big deal.

There's a reason why the Jazz are the 8th seed in the West. You're just getting blinded with the Memphis case from last year.
They are not a good playoff team, period.
Agreed.
The clippers are doing the spurs a huge favor by eliminating the grizzlies, although it's defenitely not over yet. I much prefer the spurs draw LA. Not only does Parker play well vs CP3 but the spurs have plenty of bigs to throw at Griffin to make him earn every point at the foul line (where he struggles as bad as Shaq back in the day). The clippers are also a lot less scary minus Butler, and they weren't a deep team to begin with. The spurs bench will feast on the inexperienced Young, Evans, & Bledsoe.
Do you ever watch games other than the Spurs games, or are you just quick to link to the box score for your analysis? That's a serious question, because you seem to be pretty ing serious with the stupid ideas that you are laying out in this thread.
Jazz are as good as the Clippers and Grizzlies
Oh
so they were atleast a 3 seed then right?
They also went 2-2 against the Lakers in the regular season, so they must be at par with the Lakers...
Wow, you're so delusional it's almost not worth pointing out the flaws in your logic.
The Clippers have two all-stars. The Grizzlies have one. Both teams have more young talent, more veteran experience, and more depth than Utah. There's simply not any case to be made in that regard. Utah has Jamaal Tinsley getting heavy minutes at backup point guard.
The Clippers have Griffin/Jordan/Martin/Evans (Who the is Hill?) The Grizzlies have Gasol/Randolph/Speights/Haddadi. Al Jefferson has been in the NBA 8 years and Millsap 6. Those guys aren't suddenly more than they've ever been, which is largely disappointing. Putting a high draft pick with no experience and a decent motor next to them doesn't suddenly turn them into a world-beating front line.
The only prayer the Jazz would have against the Spurs was by throwing all their size at them at once. It doesn't change the fact that it was still a prayer.
Also, Rummpd for thinking that the Spurs will sweep the Clippers or the Grizzlies.
They'll win, but they're not going to sweep any of those two teams.
Clearly you are, and clearly you aren't watching the other games because there's nothing you can get from what Evans, Jordan and Martin did to the Grizzlies by posting the box score. To discount what Evans has meant to them in this series is to admit that you aren't paying attention.

Meh, saying a sweep is possible isn't that outlandish. The Spurs are playing really well, but to suggest that it would be easy, or to suggest that the caliber of the compe ion isn't going to go up a notch or two is simply delusional. Any wins from here on out will be hard-earned.
donjuansdaddy reppin the GNSFs like a boss.
4-1 or 4-2 would be a good prediction. Sweep, probably not. The Grizzlies will win at least one game because Matt Bonner or someone will up. The Clippers will win probably one or two because they will flop up.
This.
You could argue that he's been their 3rd most important player in this series behind Paul/Griffin
That second sentence pretty much proves the first one is a lie.
What about me? Where's my cred?
I must have missed the Spurs being given fits by anything the Jazz did. But then again, I missed all that low post scoring from Millsap and Favors, not to mention all that talent from Enes Kanter and Josh Howard.
