CLEVELAND -- Veins in his forearms and neck bulging, Patty Mills flexed like a bodybuilder to emphasize his point.
Even though the San Antonio Spurs had just closed out the most brutal rodeo road trip in team history with a 110-94 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday, the club actually benefited as much this season as it had in the previous 15 years from its annual trek, as it continues to learn how to succeed without star forward Kawhi Leonard.
"It hasn't been all that bad the last four games," Mills said.
