Spurs: 3 Keys to wrapping up road trip against Milwaukee Bucks

Here’s what the San Antonio Spurs will need to do to get a win tonight

As far as road trips go, the one that the San Antonio Spurs have been on has gone about as well as we could have hoped. It started off with a blowout at the hands of the Eastern Conference leading Philadelphia 76ers but since then things have turned around for San Antonio.

These past two games have been particularly exciting. The Spurs followed up a thrilling comeback against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night with a career night from Keldon Johnson yesterday to put away the Cleveland Cavaliers. Tonight they’ll have a chance to finish the road trip on a hot streak when they face the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Bucks have been one of the most dominant teams in the league over the past two seasons but the Spurs have been able to hold their own against them. They’ve split the series with Milwaukee, with each team winning on their own home court. Will the Spurs be able to reverse that trend and steal a win in Milwaukee tonight?

The Spurs will be playing on the second night of a back-to-back, a scenario that has not been too kind to them this season. This could be a bench heavy game for San Antonio. Thankfully they’ve got one of the best second units in the NBA.

In any case, grabbing a win tonight would be an excellent way to end what has already been an encouraging road trip. Here’s what the Spurs will have to focus on to get it done.
