San Antonio -6.5
The Spurs are 37-10. The Mavericks are 38-10.
Does this game -- despite its status as a non-
conference road affair -- matter to them? You bet!
It could make all the difference at season's end,
in whether or not they get home-court advantage
in the Western Conference.
So, with five days leading into this game for the
Spurs, everyone healthy, Toronto having lost
the scoring touch of Jalen Rose and getting basically
nothing in return (Antonio Davis is distracted and will
be playing his first game with them), the Spurs are
sitting pretty. Chris Bosh of the Raptors? Yeah, he's
a player. But so is that Duncan guy.
