On Friday, March 19th, the San Antonio Spurs were riding high at 22-16 after getting their third straight road win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Just one week later, they’re suddenly spiraling into a potential fifth straight loss after playing two of their worst games of the season.

There’s not much going right for the Spurs right now, as they tallied an embarrassing 30 second-half points against a skeleton crew version of the LA Clippers on Thursday. Now, San Antonio is in danger of falling to the bottom rung of play-in tournament seeds before they know it.

Going into their game against the new-look Chicago Bulls, the Spurs now sit at 22-20 and can finish the night anywhere from 7th through 9th depending on if they can take care of business. Nikola Vucevic, who scored 26 in San Antonio earlier this month, is expected to make his Bulls debut in the contest.

After having been a dominant home team for decades, the Spurs suddenly haven’t been able to rely on any semblance of homecourt advantage this season, with their current three-game home skid now putting their home record at 10-13. So, what exactly is going on? I took to Twitter and my own confused brain to ask and answer some common burning questions.
