Let's see: Dallas been off since Wednesday, SAS on a B2B second in a row both in triple OT, 3 games in four nights, travel, late night game, old team that must be exhausted, Dallas has lost ten in a row to them. Think Mark Cuban wants his team to kick them when they are down??? Oh yes, the Rondo thing. Think I'll roll with Dallas. BOL.

On Nov 29th, 2012, the spurs played against the Heat without Duncan, Parker, Ginobili and Green, it was their fourth game in five nights all on the road so Pop decided to give these players a night off and sent them on a plane flying back to San Antonio the night before the game. The spurs organization was fined for that but the Spurs played well against the Heat (James, Wade, Bosh all played), they lost the game at the end but did cover the +11.5 or so spread.

On Dec 19th, 2013, the spurs played against the Warrirs on the road without Duncan, Parker and Ginobili, again they were on the second night of back to back, this time they managed to beat the Warriors 104-102 and covered the spread.

I'm not saying the spurs will definitely cover the spread tonight, they played two triple overtimes in three days, but they do have a history in this kind of games.

They were also two years younger, Pops got fined not the team because he didn't put them on the injury report, AND they didn't just play two triple OT games in a row, and then another B2B. Just a thought. You can put any spin you want on this, and I agree never count the SAS out, but they ain't getting any younger. LOL. BOL
