The final four - NBA style is set. In the West we have the upstart Utah Jazz and the methodical yet effective San Antonio Spurs.

These teams split their four meetings during the regular season, however, as we have learned thus far in the post season - the regular season means nothing.

Duncan should have a huge series IMO, avg about 25 ppg, 12 rpg, with a few blocks per. Ginobili finding his game is also bad news for the Jazz.

Utah will not lay down, Sloan will have them ready to play but I don`t see them overcoming the Spurs in a seven game series.

Spurs in 5.

I predict Jazz in 6.

I had The Spurs beating Dallas but I actually like the way Utah matches up with San Antonio, so I'm picking the upset here.

They changed the rules and still got the margue matchups in the 2nd round. This was supposed to be Dallas/SAN.

I don't see this series being very close.

Jazz are Jazzed up for this series........Still, I expect the Spurs to win the series in 6 games. Parker lookin good against these guys........

Spurs have too much depth and too much mental toughness to succumb to an upset. If Utah had HCA, I'd say they have a shot. Spurs in 6. But I'll be rooting for the Jazz.

Who is going to stop Duncan? Okur? They'll have to double him and that will open it up for the Spurs. Seems like Timmy passes out of the double team just fine.

I think this series may be closer than expected. The Jazz have a fast, mobile frontcourt that can really shoot. I'm really looking forward to the AK vs. Bowen matchup. Andrei has had a bit of a playoff resurgence, so it will be interesting to see if he can keep Manu from laying down on the court.



Experience and talent should probably prevail. Spurs in 6.

WCF aka Eurofest 2007

The refs will have a tough time calling this one with floppers flopping against each other, perhaps even simultaneously.

If Deron Williams can't pressure Tony Pizzle, this one is over fast.

It's up to boozer to get duncan in foul trouble. Spurs in 6

Purrs in 7.

Now that Manu seems to have gotten back on track the Spurs seem that much more dangerous.
