Is Greg Popovich\u2019s team really going to fall behind 3-1 in the series? It\u2019s possible as the Spurs are beatable but I just don\u2019t see it happening in the end.<\/p>\n<p>Manu Ginobili, Tim Duncan and Tony Parker are still extremely professional and still extremely capable. They are getting longer in the tooth and are a threesome that I have faded a bunch down the stretch but, in this spot in a must win game, how can I not believe they will pull it out?<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get me wrong, Memphis is a very good team that will fight for everything. Zach Randolph is playing like an absolute superstar and other guys like Mike Conley, Jr. and Marc Gasol are no joke. The Grizzlies are playing at a high level, even without Rudy Gay,\u00a0and it\u2019s far from a fluke. But they are still a young squad that at some point will start to realize what they are up against. You rarely see a\u00a0team make the playoffs as an eighth seed in the NBA and shock the one seed and there\u2019s a reason for that. Talent is certainly one of the factors.\u00a0 Say what you want the Spurs are still the superior basketball players and Pop\u2019s boys have been there and done that which equals priceless experience.<\/p>\n<p>This game should be tight throughout and hinge on a key play late. I can\u2019t help but believe that the Spurs will be the team that makes that play down the stretch tonight. Oh and Zach, feel free to shoot another three in the final minute, I\u2019m fine with that.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/offshoreinsiders.com\/index.php?PageID=140\">Top expert pick<\/a> on this game: San Antonio<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information: <\/strong>I did it! I did it! I\u2019ve surpassed the 10 million* of profit mark on this run. That\u2019s right, another perfect 2-0 day yesterday as the 400,000* Hawks (Outright) and the 200,000* Red Sox (7-0) took care of business with relative ease. As I have been saying for awhile now, the biggest play that I have ever released is only a 500,000* and my mo is to not only play two or three games per day max but do it with mainly underdogs that shouldn\u2019t win at such an amazing rate. You do the math and realize how I am the hottest and greatest handicapper alive and subsequently am up north of 10 million*!<\/p>\n<p>Another 400,000* is here on the diamond involving the Reds and Brewers along with a 300,000* on the hardwoods between the Thunder and Nuggets. I always win and will do just that in yet another perfect 2-0 sweep netting 700,000* of more profit! <a href=\"http:\/\/www.offshoreinsiders.com\/index.php?Page=Packages\">Click now to purchase<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper Matt Rivers has a winner Monday and it\u2019s on the San Antonio Spurs (-1.5) at Memphis.
