Premium Pick

While some of the faces have changed over the last 15+ years for the Spurs, the team as a whole remains the same. Coach Popovich has had tremendous success with his system, and keeps getting players to buy in, the result is that the Spurs are always a contender. Tim Duncan has retired, but the Spurs are 20-5 and as good as ever at an amazing 13-1 on the road. The Spurs won all four games vs. Phoenix last season, and the Suns had trouble solving the Spurs' always-intense defense. The average margin was over 20 points per game, and the Suns offense was north of 90 points just one time. At 8-17 the Suns have allowed 116.5 points per game in their last eight, and are a long way from being competitive in this contest. Give the points on San Antonio.
