Last night, Game 1 of the first-round playoff match between the San Antonio Spurs and Denver Nuggets took place at the Pepsi Center. In the regular season, Denver won the majority of the match ups, but with Gregg Popovich as a legendary “chess master” when it comes to coaching, the Spurs had been favored by many.
The Spurs came out seeking redemption from their regular season road game record of 16-25. Yesterday, the Spurs had to prove to Pop and themselves that they know how to turn up the heat when it comes to the post season.
