San Antonio at Portland

The San Antonio Spurs have the best record in the NBA at 40-7. That only means every where they go there is a team waiting to knock them off. Portland has had a rare four days off, and will be fresh, rehearsed and ready for this one. The record looks great for the Spurs, but their last eight games on the road vs. a team with a winning record shows them at 4-4. They have not won any of the eight games by more than 7 points. That leaves a razor thin margin here for the Spurs, and a very rested Portland team should be able to take this one down to the wire. I’m going to play Portland here.
