At long last, the Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs will meet with a chance to make a trip to the NBA Finals on the line. The two top dogs of the Western Conference had their fate officially sealed on Thursday night, when the Spurs eliminated the Houston Rockets in the Western Conference Semifinals.
Even crazier is the fact that they dismantled the Rockets with Kawhi Leonard and Tony Parker. It just once again proves that the Spurs are fundamentally sound enough across the board to blow out anyone at any particular time they need to.
We have seen the Spurs and Warriors in the playoffs before, but not with this Golden State team.
