The San Antonio Spurs take the court on Tuesday night, looking to bring their fans a late Christmas present in the way of their fifth win in the last six games. The Brooklyn Nets are coming town, a franchise that has lost 14 straight road games to the Spurs dating back to 2002, per Stats LLC.
The Nets have struggled throughout much of the season so far, but are sitting at 12-20, which is far more respectable than most expected of them at this point in the season. Even in their losses, they have played well and have been competitive in many of those games, so this will not be a team that will come in and roll over.
