The Hornets came out tight and even though they made it close with a flurry of points in the last few minutes, this was classic San Antonio. West was such a star throughout the series but he disappeared in this game, just never got into the flow. Chris Paul, too, was short-arming his shots in the lane, not crisp on his passes. Jannero Pargo filled it up in the 4th but he took every shot instead of getting the team into a scoring groove, so rather than lifting his team he kept them stuck in place.
The Spurs are badasses. They grind away, year after year and even though I thought this year they looked lackadaisical this regular season, here they are agan. As much as everyone loved the Paul and Hornets, doesn't Lakers-Spurs seem like the match-up we wanted all along?
