Just read a stat that said every single champion of the last 43 years has had a winning record on the road. It even applies to the 4 teams that didn't follow Phil Jacksons 40 win 20 loss rule.Depends on what “do well” means. I’m sure they’ll be happy with a finals appearance.
This year is as follows:
Nuggets - 17-18 on the road
Grizzlies - 14-22
Cavs - 16-20
Suns - 15-20
Mavericks - 14-21
Warriors 7-29
Bucks - 22-13
76ers - 22-12
Celtics - 23-14
Kings - 22-13
Knicks - 22-14
Nets - 20-18
Clippers - 18-18
Only the Kings and Knicks have better road records than home records. I really do think the champion is either the Bucks, 76ers, or Celtics just based on talent.
