San Antonio Spurs - New Orleans Pelicans - NBA

Wager: $150. San Antonio Spurs will play the New Orleans Pelicans at the Smoothie King Center, as the game will be available on FSSW, FSNO, with tip-off set for 8:00 p.m. EST.  The S.A. Spurs have won 5 straight, the most recent a 108-106 victory at Toronto on Tue, in which they rallied from a late deficit. Spurs could get point guard Tony Parker back Friday night from lingering left foot soreness. Parker is listed as probable, but forward Kawhi Leonard is questionable with a sore left hand and reserve forward Jonathon Simmons is doubtful with a sprained ankle. The Spurs have won the first two games of the season series with the Pelicans, and are expected to win tonight. On the other hand, NO's A. Davis is officially listed as probable for Friday night's game against the Spurs.  Davis sat out the surprising 124-122 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Mon., with the deep thigh contusion and then played only the 1st half of 114-105 home loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wedn. night, scoring just 8 points with 5 rebounds. Both teams shall score points tonight. Hence, I believe, both teams shall cover the "Alternative Game Total" of (Over 204 pts.) @Bet365. With that, I pick the 'Alternative Line' Match Total, Over 204 points. Click here to see odds systems. Unless otherwise stated, our wager is $100.

UPDATE January 28, 2016 - FINAL Result: S.A. Spurs 103-119 NO Pelicans. Pelicans destroyed the Spurs last night: Holiday scored 23 points, Anthony Davis had 16 and tied a career high with 22 rebounds, and New Orleans snapped San Antonio's 5-game winning streak with a 119-103 victory Friday night. Lamar. Aldridge had 14 points and 13 rebounds, and D. Bertans added 14 points for the Spurs, who trailed by only a point to start the fourth quarter. The game total is 222 pts., way over our bet projection of over 204, so our Bet is a winner. If played, $150 invested would have returned $210, i.e., $60 Net Profit or 40% ROI.  Conspiracy Theorists, here are your clues: "Spurs - Pelicans two two two" = 218 in English Kabbalah #3 (EK#3). Note, "Black Magic controls NBA" = 218 in EK#3 as well.
