San Antonio is hot, on a 6-1 SU/ATS run. All-Star power forward LaMarcus Aldridge is leading the way, named Western Conference Player of the Week after averaging 34.8 points and 9.3 rebounds in four games last week. San Antonio sits a half-game behind Oklahoma City for the No. 4 spot in the West. The West is more talented than the East again and the Spurs are 67-33-1 ATS against the NBA Southeast Division. They beat Washington, 98-90, earlier this season. The Washington Wizards are heading in the opposite direction, losing three in a row, part of a 2-5 SU/1-6 ATS slide. Star point guard John Wall (knee surgery) is still out and there is no timetable for his return. Washington got beat by the lowly New York Knicks, 101-97, on Sunday as a double-digit favorite and has lost six of its last eight home games. The Wizards are 3-7 ATS against the Western Conference. Washington is #14 in the NBA defensively in points allowed, #16 in field goal shooting defense, while the Spurs are tops in points allowed, fifth in FG defense. And when these teams clash it's been all San Antonio, with the Spurs 21-7 ATS the last 28 meetings, including 8-2 ATS in this building. Play San Antonio.
