Perhaps the Spurs are beginning to turn a corner this season. An impressive win against the Portland Trail Blazers (sans Damian Lillard) also puts the Spurs one win over Rip City all time which means the Spurs have a lifetime winning record against every team in the NBA.
Last night’s victory brings head coach Gregg Popovich one win closer to the top of the all-time regular season wins list.
Pop (and the Spurs) needs nineteen more wins to pass both Lenny Wilkins and Don Nelson.
