NBA Betting – Hornets (predict: + 3.5) vs. Spurs (predict: – 3.5)
Our Sportsbooks: This is stellar Saturday match-up between maybe the two best teams in the Western Conference at this point in the season. Straight-up the Spurs are still a terrific team but their against the spread record, and almost straight-up loss to the Heat on Thursday night, says to me that the Top Sportsbooks odds makers won’t make the Spurs an overwhelming favorite in this game. New Orleans is one of the best coached teams in the NBA. Unlike the Spurs, they are a pretty good against the spread team as well.
Here are more trends to help us:
The New Orleans Hornets are 21-5-1 against the spread in their last 27 games on the road.
The San Antonio Spurs are 3 and 9 against the spread in their last 12 overall games.
The ROAD team is 5 and 0 against the spread in the last 5 meetings between these two teams.
The FAVORITE is 6 and 2 against the spread in the last 8 meetings between these two teams.
The Hornets look tough to me in this game. San Antonio is not an easy place to play but there is something about this New Orleans team that makes them a tough out no matter where they play. It all starts at the top with coach Byron Scott who just knows how to settle his guys down and get a win. With Magic type clone Chris Paul at the point, Byron must be feeling like he’s got enough on this team to make a serious push in the playoffs.
Because of that I really like the Hornets to upset things on Saturday. I’m taking a stand by writing that, but I believe that the Spurs are just sleep-walking through this regular season. They love to fight against the Mavericks and Suns, but when it comes to these supposedly “B” type Western Conference teams like the Hornets, they tend to take it easy until the fourth quarter.
The Spurs almost lost a game on Thursday playing that way versus the Miami Heat. I’m thinking that they will lose this Saturday playing that way versus the New Orleans Hornets.
The predicted basketball betting line should fall anywhere between Spurs – 2 to Spurs – 4.5. I believe it will be an almost exact 3 to 3.5 against the Hornets.
NBA Free Pick: I like the Hornets to beat the spread. In fact I believe that the Hornets will be a decent money line wager on Saturday.
