SPURS and I have my money in the envelope ready to pay the bookie. YOU just have to take them. They are still capable of turning this completly around. (I hope).
San Antonio - 105              New Orleans - 96
Spurs                           over 183
Isn't Robert Horry supposed to be winning games at this point in the season. Hello Tim Duncan wake up ---- your team is down 2 games.

Gotta go against my horse in this one. I've been on New Orleans all year, but watching them down the stretch I think they'll have a tough time with this road game. And it's not because it's the world champion Spurs. It's because they are young and they won't be mentally ready for this game. Also, Chris Paul is my favorite player to watch this year, but could talk-radio/espn, etc. kiss his ass a little more over the last two days?
 
I'll probably sit out game 4 in this series regardless of the outcome in this one, but think game 3 is a relatively easy Spurs cover at -6.5. I'm going to wait to place until tomorrow because due to CP radio-press clippings I think this will be bet down to -6 or less tomorrow. I'll be back on NO in game 5, no matter what the spread.
 
Spurs -6.5, only play for the day.

P.S. I gotta say I love the people that think the line is so accurate they are constantly compelled to "buy the hook." Don't wet your  pants after seeing a half point line jump.....have some confidence in your pick. There are plenty of 20 point wins on 3.5 point spreads. You only remember all the games you lost by a half point because YOU LOST BY A HALF POINT. No one remembers their easy covers. Just an opinion though. If it rings true don't take it personal.

San Antonio will find a way to win, but not by seven points!  They always luck out at home, that is on sheer luck cause the skill has diminished. The Champs is only a temporary name for this team. The only value is to take the points and over!!!!!!

I really gotta dig in to this one.  I have lost a bundle on the spurs BOTH games against NO.  I am a big proponent of experience, rings in hand and on fingers, etc.  But NO has been shattering alla that to the tune of big losses on the Spurs.  I am terrified to double up on SA, they are a good team that will find a way to win, but not cover at critical points.  More later.

The spurs talk like theyre ready to play ball....finally....only problem is now they must prove themselves by walking the walk.....at least they at home, but N.O. is one of the few who have beat them in their own home this year.....the good news is that the spurs have gone 2-0 ats in the games they won this year....the most logical mind pick would have to be the spurs in game 3....basically THE SPURS NEED THIS GAME...ITS TIME FOR THEM TO STEP UP,SO THEREFORE I LOOK FOR THE SPURS TO OUTMATCH THE HORNETS HUNGER........      
 SA (HALFTIME)
UNDER -HALFT IME
N.O. SECOND HALF
OVER SECOND HALF
SA FOR THE GAME
OFF THE GAME TOTAL
