    If you remember in 2005 NBA Finals, SA won games 1 and 2, looked fantastic, and nobody was giving Detroit a shot to get back into the series(sound familiar?) Detroit then blew SA out in game 3, then blew them out again in game 4. SA came back to win a close game in game 5, and then won the series in 7.

    It seems SA makes a habit of reading their press clippings and get ahead of themselves, and lose their focus sometimes. I think this game will wake them up, and they will come out with renewed passion in game 4 on Monday.

    I'm still calling for the split in SLC...and the Spurs to close it out at home in Game 5.

    Complacency leads to pink socks. The Spurs got reamed. I hope it hurts. I hope they apply ointment. I hope they come out with fire in game 4.

    I guarantee that Tim will come out on fire and when he is playing great, the whole team seems to pick it up.

    At least TD will be well rested, since he played only about half a game tonight.

    Too much rest. Too many press clippings.

    Williams and Boozer were partying on the bench for all to see -- let's see how they respond.

    The quick turnaround should help.

    All day long i thought the Jazz were going to win but i never saw a blowout coming. Maybe i thought the Spurs had matured past the point of going up 2-0 and getting whipped in the next game.

    I'm with you. It's Duncan's team and when he rises they rise with him.
    He's pissed, it will work in our favor in game 4.
    Spurs in 5.

    Spurs have to play a 2nd half. They have been killed in 2nd half every game. Williams seems to get better and better as the game goes along. Maybe it is time for Horry to take out another player.

    I just don't get why they do this same thing year after year. They know it's going to happen and they just let it. Getting blown out though will fire up the Spurs and force them to clamp down.

    Only thing that really sucks is that Okur and AK47 played terrible and they still win by 26. What happens when they break out?

    No they played a good 2nd half in game 2, game 1 was the real problem in that area. We just need to come out hard in game 4 and hope some of the calls go our way.

    Get used to the idea you're going to be 2-2 going back to SA. Doesn't mean you wont' win. But once we get you 2-2, we'll see how your experience holds up.

    Jazz got DWill. Guy doesn't know anything about being intimidated.

    One difference tonight was Duncan's body language. When they lost game 3 in Detroit he was on the bench slumped shouldered and dazed. Not tonight. He was smiling and square shouldered the whole night, even on the bench.

    I watch Duncan closely. His body language says a lot about his state of mind.
    We're going to be fine on Monday. The series is ours.

    Why compare tonight to the 2005 Finals unless you expect this series to go the full seven games?

    Jazz have been a good second half team all season, often well down at that half,and win it anyway.
