The Spurs were able to pull off an upset in the first game of the series by taking down the Nuggets by a score of 101-96. However, what was really shocking was the way the Spurs offense was able to score. The downside for the Nuggets fans is the way the offense played and how it was contained by the Spurs and that was definitely not something that the Nuggets were expecting as they were able to dominate the games for the most part all year long and outside of the Warriors were not really that challenged in the games.
