NBA Saturday

Houston snaps their losing streak in San Antonio, 17 in a row against the Spurs at home. It wasn't like Spurs were coming in weak they had 5 game winning streak. It was a flat night for Spurs, but Rockets came in with lots of energy and forced Spur's lowest production of this season...Very impressive.

Poor Los Angeles Clippers got their ass whopped. They were toyed with like man against a child. I think it was the classic case of Dallas team ready to step up with out their big gun Dirk, but Dirk was ok no swelling on his ankle and didn't miss a beat. Mavs were up by 38 points at the end of 3rd quarter. Clips got only 4 offensive boards, 2 by starters and gave up 14 second chance points on the other end. Needless to say Clips suffered their largest margin loss for this season.

Now Clips will get +9 points. Regardless of ATS and back to back situation. Houston Rockets are patting each other's backs and Clips are steaming in their hotel room. As bad as Clips are on the road (1-9) and good as Rockets are at home (8-2) LAC needs to show they are professional basketball players and settle for nothing less than 100% focus on winning in Houston.
Rockets may have Spurs hangover syndrome lacking the energy they showed in San Antonio.
I will take my chance here for at least a ATS cover.

LAC +9 at -112 for 1 unit(W)

LAC 2nd Half -0.5 at 100 for 2 units(W)

Have some thoughts on Spurs on the road against the Hornets. The Bees by nature of player depletion lacks fire power, but they have been adjusting. Spurs after their lowest point production is in a spot for points increase yet this team does not have the large margin swing.
They are a model of consistency and will simply return to their style of taking care of business methodically shutting down the middle lane and controlling the boards. I see a tough start for Hornets and they better be ready to play scrappy.

SAS/NOH 1st Half Under 91 at -104 for 2 units(L)
Huh, Spurs and Clips were two of the same. Why didn't I play it that way? Being too bent of finding the correct number did me in with the no chance First Half Under. Spurs were mad and Hornets got slamed.
