Thursday TNT Line Mistake

Spurs +7 (3 Units)

It's very rare that you can get the defending champs +7 against a team that plays no defense. Parker is OUT, so? Vaughn will start at PG, and he'll run the team with efficiency. Manu will see increased minutes at PG, and Finley will be forced to play more. The absence of Parker's offense means more work for Duncan. We've seen him time and time again just torch the Suns. Stoudamire will have his hands full tonight, and like always, will likely get in early foul trouble.

The Spurs have dropped 3 straight and seem disinterested right now. I'm pretty confident they'll step their play up tonight against a western conference rival. These 2 teams have bad blood from last year. And I think we will see a very focused Spurs team. I think they will win SU, but I'll take the 7 points for insurance.

GL :cheers:
 
I would like to take the Cavs, too, but I'm not sure James will go tonight. In a B2B against a weak Seattle team, I dunno if Clev. will play him. Even if he sits, I'm still taking Clev. hopefully at a PK.
 
Whats the mistake?

San Antonio 87, Phoenix 103

I am in no rush to back the Suns here( though lean that way) but I dont get the comments about the line being off. When you can go back almost a year to the day with Barry and TP were healthy and we saw basically the same number...(-6.5)

Good Luck...Just dont see the LINE being off as a reason to take SA...:cheers:


To be fair that was B2B game after playing @ Utah but this is a 3rd in four with 2 injured startes out. Also Suns were playing great ball and coming off a Loss and had payback for teh OT loss earleier in the season. Situational a tough spot for SA last year but is it any better now for the?? Suns have stomped some teams at home recently....
 
i'm with you SN. i think it's just you me and memphis who don't see san antonio being close in this game. i might be a fool i don't know. if it was san antonio +18 i MIGHT take the points. like the suns here. if i get detroit, i'm putting money on the suns. good health.
 
Good call. Suns just flat and sloppy here....pretty much what was expected for SA to cover...good call...
 
wow nice call, i thought there was no way in hell Spurs would win. I still think Vaughn sucks, but they got it done with some clutch defense and Manu's ft shooting in the end.
 
This is the exact win the Spurs needed to get some lift back. I expect them to start cruising on this road trip now. It's gonna be a long break, then they are Indy. I like them big in that one.
