    Taking GS. Think they win outright, implying the +4 will be sufficient. Utah can't maintain the pace in the second half

    On GS +4.5.....agree with the dude who said Utah can't keep this pace up. I don't see GS getting blown out in this second half... go warriors!

    I'd take under in the second half if anything. I'm sure a lot of people will see the first half and think over for the second half, but Sloan will put a stop to all this playground bullshit. Also, the first half convinced me that Golden State has next to no chance to win this series. They shot absolutely out of their mind again on what was mostly contested jumpers (while the Jazz made layup after layup and had many wide open jump shots) and still lead by only three. When they finally go a little cold, the Jazz will run them out of the building.

    Gotta disagree Razz. Same conversation during the Dallas series and look at what GS did the last month and a half of the season

    I think the Jazz are contesting a lot more shots than the Mavs did. But, maybe the Warriors are so hot it doesn't matter. I still say if they gravitate back towards their percentages, it will be ugly.

    If GS can steal this game, they have a great shot at winning this series. If there is one thing the Dallas series proved more than anything, it's that GS is going to be extremely difficult to beat on their homecourt given the fans and the atmosphere in Oakland.

    GS has been shooting lights out, best they are playing in the season, but its not been just one game, its been the past ten games...I hear you on averages, but look at the past three-four weeks. If Dallas had played their starters in the third to last game of the year against GS, GS probably wouldn't be in the playoffs.

    Not having Derek Fisher is obviously hurting Utah, but I still think they will win this one by double digits.

    That's the thing that scares me about GS. The two games they've lost this postseason were game 2 in Dallas where the refs basically gifted the game to the Mavs and game 5 where the Warriors just choked it away. They are on fire. Again, this game look to be set up perfectly for Utah and while the Warriors are shooting well, the Jazz are shooting better in both FG % (48.9 to 47.9) and FT% (though it's basically a net wash with Jazz 12/14 85.7% and W's 13/17 76.5%)

    I'm passing on the 2H and will just see how things go for the rest of the game. I hope you're correct though Razz.

    GS wins tonight. Over 2H. Utah seems lost.

    I see the Jazz emphasized defense at halftime.

    Like I said, hard to win when the other team can basically pick and choose out of a group of players, who can blow by and get to the rim with ease against the slow on their feet Jazz defenders.

    Situational handicapping doesn't seem to apply to this GS team, which exploits the matchup advantages they have while their opponents, for some reason, decide to ignore the matchups where they have edges.

    All you Warriors haters will have your moment in the sun when they play the Spurs in the WCF.

    Curious question. If you chose the over for the 2nd half and they go into overtime, do those points count towards it?

    I don't hate the Warriors at all, I just think the price against them was way too cheap not to take. Honestly, if the Warriors win this series, I hope they win it all. They gave a really good effort tonight, but to be honest, the way the Jazz defended in the second half, if I was a Warriors fan/backer, I'd be really worried.

    He's smooth. Just give him 10 more years, he might develop a jumper.
