First, congrats to Utah for their first Western Conf. Finals victory since 1998. It's always good for a team to take advantage when the other team (the Spurs) are making mistakes, missing shots, and turning the ball over. The Spurs will get it together for next game. Tonight just wasn't their night. It's more about the Spurs didn't do than what the Jazz did tonight. That allows for Utah to get off some easy shots here and there and win the game.
Since Utah is just happy to be here and probably doesn't expect to win this series, they could build on tonight's victory for the years to come. Meanwhile, Spurs must finish out the series in San Antonio in Game 5, and prepare for their Finals rematch with Detroit.

The Spurs will win this series in 5.
I think it was more a matter of the Jazz beating a team they were supposed to beat. That said, the Jazz will win this series in 7.
I beg to differ. The Jazz beat them, plain and simple. Its not a big deal - just accept it and move on to game 4.
Spin control aside, the Spurs better win game 4 or its going 7.
Congrats Jazz on your W.
Dude, the Jazz kicked our ass tonight!!plain and simple. Its called home court and its good to finally see some series where actually means an advantage.
ummm...missing shots??? turning it over??? maybe that had something to do with the Jazz. okur was OWNING Duncan for a while there
Not really. The Spurs beat themselves.
fouls were a big issue, but Tim was being limited anyway with 8 turnovers.
Okur was a non-factor, and oberto was better than any of his previous games at salt lake, but even so the best front court player on the court today (at least in terms of impact on the game) was clearly Boozer. He was unstoppable in the 3rd, when the jazz turned a 4 pt. deficit into an 8 pt lead.
With boozer and dwill putting up about 60 between them, it was actually the role players scoring that make the difference. Fisher had about 10, as did harping, milsap and gircek. That adds up.
We can't have the big two for the jazz have a great game AND their supporting players play well. It have to limit it to either-or, I think, unless we excute offensively very efficiently.
they turned the fg% shooting around on us, going for 52% with us shooting 43%.
Ft shots were about even, but they had an extra 10 shots in the game from turnovers and off. rebounds...
19 turnovers and only 17 assists for the Spurs.
um....what? Which one is it?
thanks to duncan 8 turnovers
To the genius who said "I hope Utah can make it interesting in Games 3 and 4", congratulations, you got your wish.
Jazz played well. Spurs lacked a sense of urgency.
well its been a boring series
officials really bailed jazz out and it became a blowout because the jazz hit the shots given by spurs d
Does anyone really believe this was a 'Spurs Loss' and not a 'Jazz Victory?'
No one can be that much of a homer, right?
You kicked our ass games 1 and 2. We kicked your ass game 3. Isn't that what happened?
It was a Jazz victory.
Not really. The Spurs lost because they played poorly. Not because the Jazz played great. I wasn't impressed by Utah, they were just taking advantage of missed shots.
SpursDynasty needs glasses. We smoked you. That's what happened. It happens. Doesn't mean you're not up 2-1, doesnt' mean you won't kill us in game 4. But you got blasted.
The Jazz will win game 4
There is a difference, The Utah Jazz kept fighting in Games 1 and 2,
That wasn't an ass kicking.
Tonight was an ass kicking!
The Spurs got blown out in game 2 against the Suns. Who cares about that now? They won the series, and that's what they have to do again. Focus and win.
