*8* SURE SHOT on Toronto Raptors.

The San Antonio Spurs are coming to Toronto for tonight's clash against the Raptors riding a four-game winning streak. I think they're way too big favorites though, and I would be surprised to see the Raptors record an upset and come out of tonight's contest with the win.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Letdown Spot - The Spurs annihilated Philadelphia Monday as they defeated the 76ers 119-68. They're just 2-6 ATS in their last eight games following a straight up win of more than 10 points though, and this should be a tricky spot following a massive blowout win.

2. Toronto's Offense - The Raptors are averaging 104.7 points per game home at Air Canada Centre, scoring more than 100 points in each of their nine at home.

3. X-Factor - The Raptors are have covered the spread in each of their last seven when facing a team with a winning straight up record, and they gave Golden State a scare in a 112-109 defeat Saturday.

Selection: This is a play on the Toronto Raptors (8*)
