The Spurs just finished their West Coast roadtrip with two games in Los Angeles. I decided that this visit by the Spurs made this weekend the perfect time to fly my brother Mark, uber-ski instructor in Telluride, Colorado, down to sunny L.A. to see his first Spurs game. A November game was perfect because Telluride has not opened yet, and neither the Spurs or the Lakers are likely to be playing any more games after the ski resort closes in April. The Spurs finish the regular season April 9, at which point Spurs fans (and fans of other NBA teams not in the playoffs) will be waiting for the draft lottery to see if their ping pong ball speaks French.
