The Spurs have a really winnable recreation tonight. How do I do know that? As a result of the Portland Path Blazers are one of many seven groups that the Spurs have crushed this 12 months of their eight wins, and may very well be the second staff that they beat twice up to now.

On Wednesday night time, the Spurs confronted the highest staff within the west, and the outcomes have been precisely what you’d count on when top-of-the-line groups within the league faces one of many worst.
