New Orleans is approaching the game with San Antonio as the favorite. According to bookmaker analysts, the guest team will have less chance of success. However, you can argue with them. Both teams do not particularly shine with results and are adjacent in the standings. The teams are experiencing losses. In this situation, it is worth choosing a bet on Spurs, which in the previous meeting showed that it is able to outplay the opponent. Popovich's wards will have to achieve a difficult victory and take revenge on their opponent.
