Any worries Portland?

[Extra Stout]

Any worries Portland? Not in Las Vegas. The Spurs are a 9.5 point favorite tonight. You would expect that. But, would you expect them to be favored for the 44th game in a row???? The favorite in every damn game? Never seen that.

They've been favored in every game that there's been a line, and are 27-14-1 against the spread.

That means that in spite of the Spurs' being favored every time out, Vegas is still underrating them a little bit, on average.

Spurs beat their average +/-Diff. as long as they don't resort to the Mosquito Infested Swamp that is "4-Down".

I don't know where Sean digs up these sayings, but they certainly qualify him as "color" commentator!
