Instead of a trip back to Phoenix for a Game 7, the Spurs closed out their contentious series with the Suns with a 114-106 victory in Game 6 on Friday night.

San Antonio will host Utah on Sunday in the opening game of the Western Conference finals. It's the Spurs' third trip to the conference finals in the last five years and they won the title the other two times.

Manu Ginobili had 33 points and 11 rebounds for the Spurs, who saw a 20-point lead cut to five late in the game. Tony Parker added 30 points for San Antonio, while Tim Duncan had 24 points, 13 rebounds and a career-high nine blocked shots.
