A year after the Spurs went a respectable 22 - 19 on the road, San Antonio has now been an absolute force on the road with a 14 - 1 record away from home to start their 2016 - 17 campaign. And not only are they winning away from home, they are dominating, just as they did Thursday with their 15 - point victory over the Suns on Thursday. The impressive numbers were no fluke from that game, as the Spurs have been beating teams on the road by an average margin of nine points this season (second in the NBA to the Warriors). Additionally, they are shooting 48 percent from the field and 84 percent from the free throw line away from home, both of which top the NBA. Their 50 percent performance from the field and 93 percent performance from the free throw line Thursday night are even more impressive now when you realize the Spurs have been doing it all season on the road, as those numbers are hard to overcome no matter who and where you are playing.
