The San Antonio Spurs are on the verge of making history. Stop me if you’ve heard that one before. Tuesday night’s 105-91 win in Minnesota means the Spurs are 13-0 on the road to start the season, becoming only the second team to achieve such a feat. The only other team is last year’s the Golden State Warriors, who picked up 14 consecutive away wins. A win in Chicago on Thursday night will see San Antonio equal that record.
The Spurs haven’t yet established any sort of momentum at the AT&T Center, where they hold a less-than-stellar 5-4 record for the year, but the same cannot be said about their play on the road.
