We consider the $k$-server problem on trees and HSTs. We give an algorithms
based on Bregman projections. This algorithm has a competitive ratios that
match some of the recent results given by Bubeck et al. (STOC 2018), whose
algorithm was based on mirror-descent-based continuous dynamics prescribed via
a differential inclusion.
