If you’ve been following the season at all you probably know that the Spurs were just 5-4 at home coming into this game while being an incredible 13-1 on the road. For some reason the AT&T Center just hasn’t been doing it for the Silver and Black this season. While they’ve now won five of their last six in San Antonio, until tonight none of those wins were what you would call dominant outside of their home opener against the lowly Pelicans.
But tonight was different. It was a lot more like last season’s home games, where the Spurs won a NBA-record 40 of their 41 games and 17 of those wins came by a margin of 15 or more (and 13 more such games on the road).
