The Spurs so far have MORE road wins than anyone in the league - except the Heat who have just one more; yet played 4 more games - Spurs have also played now as as many road games as Lakers and Boston and 1 more than Dallas and have the LEAST road losses in the league.
A week or so ago many in the media were quick to jump on the Spurs for inflating their record with a home heavy schedule with a stellar 25-2 record at home.
However the road record of the Spurs at almost 75% is also in the top tier of the league; and my opinion is just as impressive as the home record. Plus with the overall favorable schedule the Spurs have on this rodeo trip - they could well be over 0.800 on the road when they return.
A mark of truly great teams is winning on the road and these Spurs on track for greatness.
In fact, the Spurs road record at 17-6 is close to the same % vs. favored LAL have at home (19-8) - which is stunning with the easy schedule overall LAL has played there and LAL is also 15 and 8 on the road.
Treasure this season it is truly remarkable and will be more so when we see the Spurs with :lobt2::lobt2::lobt2::lobt2::lobt2:
