San Antonio at Oklahoma City

The no-nonsense Spurs are well coached, disciplined, deep and talented, and on a 16-7 ATS run. The Spurs have added LaMarcus Aldridge and David West to stars Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili and Kawhi Leonard. Getting Aldridge to sign over the summer was a coup for the Spurs, so a team that went to the NBA Finals in 2013, won the title in 2014 and posted 55 wins a season ago now looks even better. Oklahoma City has a new coach in Billy Donovan, a fine college coach but the NBA is very different. The Thunder are 2-5 ATS against the Western Conference, including 1-4 ATS at home. San Antonio took two of three meetings last season after beating the Thunder in six games in the 2014 conference finals and the Spurs are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Play San Antonio.
