New Orleans at San Antonio

Things look bleak for the New Orleans Hornets. They attempt to snap a season-high six game losing streak on San Antonio Spurs hardwood. Since returning from the All Star break, the Hornets have won just twice in ten games (2-8 ATS) and must now face a Spurs team that is extremely difficult to beat in the AT&T Center building. But, we don't need a win here, just a cover. San Antonio as a heavy favorite failed to cover the 11 point line the other night against the T-MAC less Rockets and they are a just 9-11 ATS as a favorite of 8+ points. New Orleans needs to win to stay in the playoff hunt while San Antonio can put it on cruise control tonight. The Spurs win but not by double digits. Two stars on New Orleans with our contrarian play of the day.
