10* SIDE OF THE YEAR on the San Antonio Spurs.
The Golden State Warriors really struggled on the road in Memphis last night, but rallied in the fourth quarter, out-scoring the Grizzlies 30-21 to win by a single point. There was some controversy at the end of the game, as it appeared that Curry might have gotten away with a push on Lance Stephenson who missed the potential game winning shot at the buzzer. The Warriors look like a team that has really run out of gas, and playing on the road at San Antonio on back-to-back nights should prove to be too much.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Previous History - The Warriors lost their last game at San Antonio by a score of 87-79, and Stephen Curry scored just 14 points on 4-of-18 shooting. He was 1-of-12 from three-point range in the loss, and the Warriors as a team shot 37.8 percent from the field and 25 percent from beyond the arc. The Warriors have a history of struggling here in Texas, going 8-20 ATS in the last 28 meetings in San Antonio.
2. Stephen Curry - He scored just 17 points on 7-of-22 shooting in last night's game in Memphis, and he's failed to score 20 points in three of the Warriors last four road games. He's got his work cut out for him against a Spurs defense that ranks 1st in the NBA allowing opponents to average just 92.9 points per game. While the Warriors are looking to set a record for the most regular season wins, San Antonio is focused on it's own perfect home record. The last thing Gregg Popovich wants is the Warriors thinking they can win in San Antonio, where they've lost 33 straight over the last two decades.
3. X-Factor - The Warriors are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games playing on 0 days rest, while the Spurs are 17-4 ATS in their last 21 games following a straight up loss.
Selection: This is a play on the San Antonio Spurs (10*) GOY
