The NBA has released its schedule for the first round of the 2008 playoffs.
The San Antonio Spurs will tip off their post season play Saturday, April 19, at 2 p.m. in AT&T Center against the Phoenix Suns on ABC.
The Spurs are also slated to host the Suns for Game 2 on April 22 at 8:30 p.m. before traveling to the Valley of the Sun for Games 3 and 4 on April 25 and 27.
