Opening Line:
Spurs -5.5 , Total 190.5
Tim Duncan and the San Antonio Spurs head to Atlanta to take on the Hawks on Tuesday night. The Spurs are again one of the favorites to win the NBA title and are looking just as strong as last season when they won the Championship. Duncan has been solid in his career against the Hawks averaging 21.6 points and 11 rebounds per game. He is coming off a 25 point performance in the Spurs win over Houston last Friday. "It's why he's the focal point of our team," said San Antonio forward Bruce Bowen. "He's the foundation here. There's times when he'll get a silent 20 and create so many shots for other guys. That's the versatility he has." SBG Global reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Spurs on the Road.
The Hawks come into Tuesday’s game having lost four out of five despite getting solid performances out of Josh Smith. He is averaging a career high 19.4 points per game this season. The Spurs have won 14 of the last 18 games against the Hawks. Last year San Antonio won both games by an average of 10.5 points.
