Stephen Nover's NBA Saturday Spread Crusher
(NBA) LA Lakers vs. San Antonio,
Point Spread: -3.00 | -108.00 LA Lakers (Away)
Result: Win
I don't get this short number. These teams have met twice already within the last six days. The Lakers blasted the Spurs, 123-9, at home without LeBron James and then beat the Spurs again this time on the road last night, 105-94. 

James played in last night's game and committed a season-high nine turnovers. He'll be less rusty here. 

The Lakers started slow. But they are coming on now, going 4-1 SU and ATS in their last five games. The lone defeat during this span was to the Suns. 

The Spurs are a strong fade right now. They are 1-12 in their last 13 games and have lost seven in a row. San Antonio ranks last in all the major defensive categories. 

Maybe the Spurs get right here. That could be a stretch. The Lakers have proven themselves the superior team. So I'll lay this short number.
