Denver at San Antonio

The San Antonio Spurs have not looked the part of a Championship team as they did last season, but they certainly are still very good. The good news is that they have won three straight games by a combined 65 points, and their trademark defense appears to be digging in now. The Spurs have allowed 85 points per game in the last three, and seem to be ready to make a run heading into the playoffs. Denver is just 7-15-1 ATS in their last 23 games, and has gone 18 straight games without facing an elite team - one that is over .600 on the season. The last one vs. Memphis resulted in a 30-point loss. The Nuggets are just 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings, and the Spurs have failed to cover just twice in their last eight vs. a team under .400. Play on San Antonio.
