GO SPURS!

What a big win today for the Spurs in Game 1 vs. the Mavericks! A 36-hour turn around after finishing off the Kings in Sacramento late Friday night to beat the Mavs, who were well rested after sweeping the Grizzlies. Tim Duncan scored 31 points and pulled down 13 rebounds, still playing on a bad foot that he's been dealing with all season. In my opinion, he continues to show why he's one of the best big men of all time. He's still very much capable of taking over a game when necessary. And, give Bruce Bowen a lot of credit, too. He gets the assignment of trying to contain Dirk Nowitzki, and usually has to do it by himself. One of these years, Bowen is going to get the Defensive Player of the Year award that he truly deserves. So far so good for the Spurs, as they go for back-to-back Championships and their 4th in 9 years!
