The San Antonio Spurs have swept their way into Stephen Strasburg Jerseythe Western Conference semifinals after an almost perfunctory, yet very physical test from the most injury-depleted team ever in the NBA playoffs.

Kawhi Leonard scored 21 points as the Spurs routed the Memphis Grizzlies 116-95 on Sunday, sweeping the best-of-seven first-round series.

''It wasn't a fair fight,'' Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said of playing a team that set http://www.officialnationalsshop.com/authentic-6-anthony-rendon-jersey.htmlan NBA record with 28 Grizzlies playing this season. ''Whoever was available came out and played, and they executed to the best of their ability. They played with a lot of heart and a lot of fortitude.''

The Spurs finished off their ninth sweep of a postseason series in franchise history, their third against the Grizzlies. San Antonio also swept Memphis in the 2004 first round and the 2013 Western Conference finals.

''They play very physical,http://www.officialnationalsshop.com/authentic-34-bryce-harper-jersey.html so it's a good test for the next round,'' Spurs guard Tony Parker said.

The only thing that delayed the Spurs advancing was a power surge that knocked out the lights, stopping the game for about 20 minutes in the second quarter.

San Antonio now awaits the winner of Oklahoma City-Dallas, a best-of-seven Vladimir Tarasenko Jerseyseries that the Thunder lead 3-1.

LaMarcus Aldridge scored 15 points and grabbed 10 rebounds for the Spurs. Parker finished with 16 points. David West had 11.

Lance Stephenson http://www.officialbluesteamshop.com/Womens_Youth_Wayne_Gretzky_Jerseyscored 26 points off the bench for the Grizzlies. Zach Randolph and Matt Barnes each had 15 points and Vince Carter 14.

This is the third time in the past six postseasons the Grizzlies have been ousted in the first round but the first in that stretch in which they didn't at least push the series to a Game 7. Fans saluted the Grizzlies, holding up towels that read ''ALL HEART'' as the game ended, and Memphis coach Dave Joerger was very emotional when he talked to reporters.

''This season has been hard, it's been really hard,'' Joerger said. ''They could've quit, could've not made the playoffs. And every day they came out and fought like crazy.''
