The San Antonio Spurs are off to an 18-8 start. They have done so without the services of all-star, and potential MVP Kawhi Leonard. They also have gone most of the way without Tony Parker. The Spurs win because they are well coached, and play defense every night. They just took down a Boston team that had been 22-2 in their last 24 games. This team is riding that wave with Parker back on the court, and the inspiring news that Leonard will be back on the court Tuesday. Phoenix comes in just 9-18, and have little margin for error without Devon Booker sidelined. They rarely score under 100 points but in Booker's first game out they failed to get there, and the defense can't stop anyone. Lay the points on San Antonio.
