    I'll give GS 1 win.

    Because of M. Jackson's God. He's gotta be worth 1 W right?

    You tried so hard to be the first to post the thread. Too bad you put "2st."

    This will be just like 2007, when the exciting Warriors upset the higher seeded Mavs in the 1st round and everyone thought they were going to go far, and then the boring, fundamental Jazz killed them in round 2. GS is just way too one dimensional in their attack to hang with a well coached team like the Spurs.

    That 4th quarter by GS was absolutely brutal. If they continue to close out games like that, Spurs in 5...but I voted Spurs in 6. Spurs are just playing too well and their guys look healthy...Manu is looking great and Parker is showing flashes of his peak form from earlier in the year.

    Duncan...he's Duncan.

    Inside the NBA says the Warriors haven't won in San Antonio since 1997. Wow if that's true.

    I give the Warriors one night where Thompson and Curry hit everything and win. Other than that Spurs should win this easily I think.

    A Memphis/San Antonio Western conference finals would be David Stern's final nightmare.

    The Spurs are gonna breeze through the Western Conference. The only team that can maybe stop them is Memphis

    Spurs should get this, but with bogut gettin back to form and David lee somehow playing with steroid shots and a few crazy curry performances it could be a toss up

    If the Spurs knew how to take care of Nash when he was at his best with the Suns, they will know how to take care of Curry. They know how to shut down CP3 who people thought was even more dominant than Curry.

    Bogut and Curry are key to the warriors. Duncan and Splitter should be more than enough to keep Bogut off the glass, so it's up to Green, Parker and Leonard to force the ball out of Curry's hands.

    I don't think GS is going to be an easy out. I'd say maybe the Spurs tahe it in 7 games. GS has great fans.

    Spurs in 6, but I could see an upset. If Spurs plays stupid and allow Warriors run it, Spurs will look old. I know Spurs will employ a smoothering defense on Curry, by hacking him and smacking him around.
