This is a 10* play on the San Antonio Spurs.
After crushing the Thunder in Game 1 of this series, the Spurs may have been guilty of taking their foot off the gas in Game 2. The Thunder won by a score of 98-97 and LaMarcus Aldridge scored 41 points in a losing effort: "It feels horrible," Aldridge said. "Feels like it was wasted. I've never been about trying to get points and not win; I always try to do things to win. If you win, it's totally a different feeling, but losing like that hurts."
The series shifts to Oklahoma City for a pivotal Game 3, and the Spurs can't afford to let the Thunder seize control of this series. San Antonio didn't have much trouble winning on the road this year, going 27-14 during the regular season. They've won twice in their last four visits to Oklahoma City, and they are 17-6 ATS in their last 23 when coming off a loss.
The Thunder are tough at home, but they have already lost once at home in the playoffs, losing 84-85 in Game 2 of their first round series with Dallas. I expect San Antonio to play more like they did in the series opener, rather than how they played in Game 2. It's going to be quite difficult for the Thunder to match their defensive intensity
Take SA.
