I dont care who wins the Jazz/Warrior series, either one will be killed in the next round by the Spurs. Who happened to take control of the Phoenix Series with a big win tonight.

FWIW, my dad was one of the fans sitting behind them who helped break up the fight)

I think this next series will be a dog fight. I think the Jazz have the advantage playing at home, but I also think they can get one in Golden State. I also wouldn't be surprised to see GSW take one in Utah. I think this series goes 6 games, with Utah winning it. But it could easily go 7 with Golden State taking it as well. Golden State has a lot of momentum and confidence right now. They beat the team with the best record in Basketball, so you know they think they can beat anybody. Should be a fun series.
I was at that game sitting about several rows up and remember seeing Larry just have a coronary.

I remember that series...Mutombo's finger wagging, Malone back pedaling after dunking on him with The Dik going..."I will get you back". I remember Brian Williams...aka..Bison Dele....loving to rip on the state of Utah in the press.... I remember castoff Reggie Williams and Bryan Stith playing the ball of their lives and the Jazz having to hold off a team riding the wave of momentum and eventually winning in 7 games.

The Jazz started that series 3-0, but Denver pushed them to a game 7. As a result, the Jazz ran out of steam in the Conference Finals, having to travel to Houston for game 1 the next day.
