San Antonio Spurs cruise into conference finals

The San Antonio Spurs are through to the Western Conference finals after beating the Portland Trail Blazers in their semi-final series.

The San Antonio Spurs have thrashed the Portland Trail Blazers 104-82 in the fifth game of their semi-final series to progress to the Western Conference finals.

The teams were tied at the end of the first quarter, but the home side surged ahead in the second and never looked like being caught.

Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard each scored 22 during the game, helping them to a 14-point lead by the start of the fourth quarter.

Patty Mills and Tim Duncan kept the points coming late on for the Spurs as they outscored Portland 27-19 in the final 12 minutes, ensuring that there was no comeback.

LaMarcus Aldridge and Damian Lillard combined for 38 points for the Trail Blazers, but it was not enough to keep them in the tie.

San Antonio will face the winners of the series between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Clippers in the West finals.
