Hey. Yeah, it’s me. I’m back from abroad. And you know what you can’t spell abroad without? Road.
Sorry.
If there is one thing that has undergirded the entirety of the Doc Rivers regime thus far, it is a general disparity between home and road records. This is not just a Doc issue (you don’t get to a perfectly flat 16-16 road record without a whole team effort), but has been exemplified by dint of the recent number of road games on the Bucks docket. The task was so daunting, indeed, that Doc was privately trying to manifest the team hanging on to Adrian Griffin until after some of these tough road trips.
