Two of the hottest teams in the NBA meet for the second time this season. San Antonio comes in with a 13-2 record while New Orleans is 12-3. When these teams met in San Antonio on October 30, the Hornets won the game by 9 points as a 9 point underdog. I like them to win again here, this time with the home-court advantage. New Orleans is 7-0 here, winning by 9 points per game. As good as Gregg Popovich is, the Spurs are just 82-106 ATS during his tenure when facing great teams (those at .700 or better). But wait, you say. San Antonio is seeking revenge here, right? Yes they are, but that will not automatically help. The Spurs are just 11-16 straight-up the past two seasons when seeking revenge. I like the Hornets here.
