No situational angle here except that the Spurs are on the outside looking in against the top team in the West. The Lakers humiliating defeat of the Warriors tonight should give all the teams in the West a boost of confidence tonight, and SA won't be any different. This is the first game for both teams after the Christmas holiday and I expect the Spurs to be all business, especially since they will follow this game up with a trip to Denver to play there. Spurs know they are a better home team and so they'll want to get this first game to insure a split at the very least.
Both teams are coming off a loss despite playing some good basketball, so no advantage either way there. Last year each team won both its home games and lost its road games--and I'm hoping the pattern continues again this year, because if the Spurs win tomorrow night I'll likely back Denver on Friday.
