Backing The Old Men In Black

Back from a 2-day hiatus to break the losing spell.  Let's see if the no-tension vacation of watching NBA games for two days has helped:

SAS ML
Don't quite understand why SAS would be a dog here, even with Tony Parker out.  Spurs have covered 9 out of their last 10 games, so this streak is no fluke.  Am usually wary of betting on teams that just came off blowout losses, but San Antonio beat GSW to a pulp with Tim Duncan clocking in only 14 mins, and 8 Spurs players were in double digits.  Combine that with a day's rest in between and you have an "over the hill" contender ready to teach these young Hawks a thing or two about veteran advantage, IMO. 

SAS +3.5
See above reasoning.

Leaning:

OKC -4
(who doesn't love these hardworking young guys?)

POR +6.5
Another young team that plays hard night in and night out.  I believe the reason PHX doesn't match up well with the Blazers is that, absent Amar'e, Portland's length and youth give the Suns problems from the center spot all the way to the matchup between Nash and Roy.  Should be a good fight, just like their 2 previous games.

flynCO:  Sorry man, I don't play totals that much.  Am not good at it. BOL on your play.

mkbini: Wow, that's a new angle--Israeli TV.  LOL.  But yeah, key player out angle worked again, didn't it?

Don't let anyone do that, man.  If I were you, I'd rather risk a loss from my own bet than pull my hair out at the end of the game and say, "I had the right pick but went pussy at the last second!"
