byAfeez Tijani |  Observations from the First Round —I enjoyed watching the Spurs serve the Nuggets (I seriously dislike them). Actually, I was surprised Denver won a game! Well, I guess they didn't really win a game as much as the Spurs just went cold in the 4th quarter of Game 1. It blew me away how some people actually believed that the Nuggets would be a tough match up for the Spurs. I mean they weren't a (...).
