San Antonio at New York

Just when you thought the Tim Duncan-era was fading, the San Antonio Spurs have emerged as the top team once again in the NBA at 29-4. That mark includes 14-1 in their last 15. The problem for the Spurs is that they have lived off a lot of home cooking with 12 of those 15 at home. In the three road games during the stretch, they actually have a negative scoring margin at -15, and that goes to -20 in their last four on the road. The Knicks are a vastly improved team with Amare Stoudamire and his talent and leadership. The Knicks have shown the penchant to get stoked for the big teams as they are now 26-12 ATS vs. opponents with a better than .600 winning percentage. I'll ride with New York here.
