The San Antonio Spurs are facing elimination in game six tonight in Dallas after the best regular season in the NBA this year. The Spurs have yet to play their game, and have failed to cover any of the five played in this series. It seems that they have been focused when things get away from them. The defense has been a hallmark for this team for the entire Tim Duncan era, so I look for that to come out again tonight. They opened the series holding Dallas to 85 points. They let the next two games get away from them, and trailing 2-1 they brought the defense again to hold the Mavs to 89 points. They now find themselves in a similar place, and that has been a call to defense for this team. The first half in the two games from above have seen 87, and 86 points scored by both teams, and San Antonio will be in defensive mode as they always seem to be with a must-win situation. San Antonio is 12-3 to the UNDER when their opponent scored 100+ in the previous game, and 6-0 to the UNDER in the last six. Dallas is 5-0 to the UNDER in their last five after their last opponent scored 100+ as well. This game should follow the San Antonio need when against the wall and play 48 minutes on the defensive end. Play the first half and full game UNDER.
