Game 1, Spurs 88-78

Well, the Lakers did show up, but they couldn't quite hold things together. They threatened, even briefly overtook my guys, but in the end, they did not prevail. It wasn't even close.

That's right, Coach Jackson, once you've been to San Antonio, there's no reason to stay. In fact, if you work things right, you'll only have to come back here one more time this season. See you Wednesday night. Or were you planning on just staying in LA and giving us that one so you don't have to come back? S'OK with us.
