    Key Matchup

    Andrei Kirilenko vs. Tim Duncan

    Tim Duncan is an excellent player, and he could well be the MVP this season. He has a big height and weight advantage over Kirilenko, and even with a great defender in Kirilenko on him, he will still dominate the game. Kirilenko must try to get the rebounds, and block shots as much as he can without getting in foul trouble.

    Prediction

    Spurs by 24.

    Manu finishing with 31 points 8 rebounds and 7 assists in a Spurs 101-94 win. Only downside was TD getting injured and is listed as day to day. If he has to miss quite a few games It will test the Spurs mental focus.
