They\u2019ve won 11 of 12 and still have a shot to match or best the 1996 Chicago Bulls\u2019 72-win effort. So why is no one talking about San Antonio?<\/p>\n<p>Maybe it\u2019s because they don\u2019t have the marquee, go-to guy anymore, the Dwight Howard, the Kevin Durant, the LeBron James. The Spurs are the NBA\u2019s fifth highest-scoring team yet don\u2019t have a single player inside the top 25 individual scorers.<\/p>\n<p>What does that tell you? The Spurs embody the team concept. Five different guys \u2013 Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker, Tim Duncan, Richard Jefferson and George Hill \u2013 average at least 11 points per game. Three more \u2013 Gary Neal, DeJuan Blair and Matt Bonner \u2013 average seven or more. Even vets like Antonio McDyess come off the bench to grab five boards per game. Everyone contributes in San Antonio.  <a href=\"http:\/\/record.partners.betus.com\/_zzar6WLC4ymo7VEZ8gU2ZXdRsl6wLCi5\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"width: auto; height: auto; margin: 5px;\" src=\"http:\/\/media.partners.betus.com\/BANNERS\/basketball\/sportsbook_basketball_250x250_banner1.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Portland Trail Blazers (25-22)<\/p>\n<p>The Blazers enjoyed a nice five-game winning streak from January 15 to 22 but it\u2019s fair to wonder if a big slide is on the horizon. For one, tonight will mark Portland\u2019s fifth straight home game and seventh in their last eight contests. Playing in your own building that often can backfire and make you complacent.<\/p>\n<p>Worse yet for the Blazers, they can\u2019t escape their injury woes forever. Greg Oden is gone for the year. Brandon Roy\u2018s troublesome knees will keep him out at least another month. Marcus Camby is out two more weeks, give or take. LaMarcus Aldridge has had to shoulder a huge load with so many high-impact players out of Portland\u2019s lineup. He\u2019s done an admirable job, averaging 21 points per game, but he\u2019s finally starting to break down under the heavy burden.<\/p>\n<p>A hip injury is starting to nag Aldridge and it shows in his recent play; he\u2019s scored just nine and 17 points over his last two contests. Portland lost both of those games.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trends:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Under is 10-2 in SA last 12 overall.<br \/>\nSA are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games overall.<br \/>\nSA are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 Tue. games.<br \/>\nPOR are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 home games.<br \/>\nPOR are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall.<br \/>\nHome team is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The pick:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Blazers seem ripe for the picking tonight, don\u2019t they? They\u2019re loaded with injuries, they\u2019ve gone soft playing at home, they\u2019ve lost two straight and they\u2019re facing the NBA\u2019s best team. The Spurs are also good to bettors \u2013 28-17-2 against the spread and 13-61 ATS on the road this season. There simply aren\u2019t many if any reasons to justify picking Portland tonight.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs vs Trail Blazers prediction: Spurs 98, Trail Blazers 91<\/p>\n<p>Money Line: Spurs -220<br \/>\nSpread: Spurs -5<br \/>\nOver\/Under: UNDER 191.5<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/respsportscapping.php?schedule\/league_id,nba\"><strong> CLICK HERE TO VIEW OUR TOP NBA CAPPERS PREDICTIONS FOR TODAY!<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday its the San Antonio Spurs vs. Portland Trail Blazers.
