Point Spread: 5.00 | -102.00 Golden State (Away)
Result: Loss
The Golden State Warriors only have one thing left to accomplish during the regular season, and they can tick another box with a win at San Antonio on Sunday. It won't be easy, as the defending champs are coming off six straight wins. I think it's going to be tough for the Warriors to compete with the Spurs here on the road playing on back-to-back nights.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Previous History - The Warriors have not won in San Antonio since the 96-97 season, losing 31 straight visits to the Lone Star State. The season series is tied at 1-1, and the Spurs won at Golden State by a score of 113-100 in November, dealing the Warriors one of their two home defeats.
2. Home Cookin' - The Spurs have covered the spread in six straight home games, and they boast a home record of 30-8 on the season. They've also covered in four of their last five meetings with the Warriors.
3. X-Factor - Greg Popovich actually rested his starters in the Spurs loss at Golden State in the most recent meeting, and the Spurs had won seven straight prior to that.
Selection: This is a play on the San Antonio Spurs (10*)
