Ginobili, Popovich, Parker, Duncan & The Spurs Outside LA Hotel (Videos)

Last Friday night, the defending Western Conference champion San Antonio Spurs defeated the undermanned Los Angeles Lakers, 91-85 at Staples Center in downtown LA.

During the majority of the four-time NBA champion's visits to Southern California, the team elects to stay in the beachfront city of Santa Monica. This trip was no different, with the squad from South Texas basing themselves out of the stately Hotel Casa Del Mar.

In the hours leading up to tipoff, iFolloSports.com was on hand, chronicling the scene, as the organization boarded their buses for the 14- mile trip down Interstate 10.  Below is a look at the original pieces of video.

NBA good guy Manu Ginobili, per usual, providing ample time for his many fans, while also interacting with a fellow Argentine countryman.
