I backed the Spurs in the scrimmages and got a dose of reality when San Antonio was smacked around again and again. The Spurs weren’t a great team before the break and now the loss of LaMarcus Aldridge just hurts San Antonio even more. If the Kings are serious about making a push for the #8 seed, they have to take advantage of soft spots like this in their 8-game return schedule and I think the Kings do just that with a win and cover so I’ll side with Sacramento as my premium pick for this game.
