The San Antonio Spurs are a young team on the rise as they compete each night and are finding ways to win. If the Spurs are going to continue to move in a positive direction and stay in the play-in / playoff conversation, these are games they take advantage of. A loss in this spot at home would be a big blow to the Spurs’ progress. This line is soft. Give me the Spurs.
