The Spurs are 7-20 ATS in their last 27 road games and 9-25 ATS in their last 34 games overall. The Mavericks are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 home games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The over is 4-1 in Spurs last 5 overall. The over is 5-0 in Mavericks last 5 vs. a team with a losing straight up record. The over is 5-0 in the last 5 meetings.

The San Antonio Spurs have been a mess all year, and they don't cover numbers despite being big underdogs nightly. However, the Mavs showed Friday that they're in tank mode as well, as they threw that game against the Bulls to the point the NBA is now investigating. Not sure how you can lay chalk with what the Mavericks are doing. It's the Spurs and the points or pass for me.
