Chris Paul was the biggest acquisition of the year... but his season is over thanks, in part, to some excellent defense from unheralded Cleveland Cavalier castoff Danny Green. Green picked up a deflected pass and forced a miss on two of the Clippers' final two possessions, helping the Spurs close out Los Angeles and advance to the Western Conference Finals.
San Antonio swept the series 4-0, and has now won eight consecutive playoff games and 18 straight overall. They'll face the winner of the Lakers/Thunder series, which Oklahoma City leads, 3-1.
