Thoughts of a Mad San Antonio Spurs Fan

Last night, the San Antonio Spurs played the Golden State Warriors in Game 1 of Round 2 of the NBA playoffs.  Prior to last night, the Spurs hadn't played in 7 days so the expectation was they would come out rusty.  With the Miami Heat getting beat by the Chicago Bulls in the previous Game 1 matchup, my mind was reeling as to if the same thing would happen to my beloved Spurs. Throughout the game I shared my thoughts on FB. Today, a friend admonished me for not having a twitter account for my 1 sentence thoughts.  Apparently, this is what twitter is for; however, I refuse to get an account at this time to alleviate the possibility of being caught up in the twitter world.  Based on this twitter conversation, I had the idea of consolidating my thoughts into one document based on the actions that were occurring on the court at the time. Here are the thoughts of a mad San Antonio Spurs fan, Game 1.  Stay tuned for more thoughts throughout the playoffs.

   
Action:  Warriors open up with a run putting the Spurs down early
