圣安东尼奥在以93-105输给雷霆队的比赛中找不到进攻节奏。
圣安东尼奥马刺队与俄克拉荷马城雷霆队的比赛,焦点在于两位瘦高且技术娴熟的大个子球员——维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)和切特·霍姆格伦(Chet Holmgren)——之间的对决。这场比赛并没有达到预期的精彩程度,霍姆格伦和雷霆队以105-93击败了马刺队。
文班亚马连续第二场比赛表现挣扎,他5投1中,仅得到6分和8个篮板。就像休斯顿和达拉斯的球队一样,雷霆队在文班每次触球时都对他进行包夹,并在外线对他进行身体对抗,迫使他出现失误(他出现了4次失误)或阻止他做出动作。他在防守端确实有所贡献,凭借3次盖帽震慑了雷霆队的内线进攻。
马刺队的进攻在比赛开始时就陷入停滞,而雷霆队的三分球却手感火热。圣安东尼奥在第一节的投篮命中率仅为29.2%,而俄克拉荷马城在上半场的三分命中率为50%。面对雷霆队令人窒息的防守,圣安东尼奥无法创造出空位投篮的机会。俄克拉荷马城迫使马刺队在比赛中出现了22次失误。在进攻端,俄克拉荷马城在半场阵地战和转换进攻中都做得很好,他们出色地转移球并找到了空位球员。
凭借老将克里斯·保罗(Chris Paul)和哈里森·巴恩斯(Harrison Barnes)的出色发挥,马刺队在第三节开始反击。保罗在挡拆中表现得非常果断,并且不惧怕远投。他全场比赛得到14分和9次助攻,三分球7投3中。巴恩斯作为一名空间型球员表现稳固,他利用突破篮筐的方式惩罚了雷霆队的紧逼防守。他以12投7中得到18分,领衔圣安东尼奥的得分。
多亏了马拉基·布拉纳姆(Malaki Branham)连得5分,马刺队在第四节开始时将分差缩小到7分。这位三年级后卫在第四节状态火热,但这还不够,因为雷霆队在卢·多特(Lu Dort)的火热投篮下再次拉开了比分,多特以20分领衔雷霆队的得分,三分球8投6中。霍姆格伦在本场比赛中得到19分和2次盖帽,帮助球队取得了胜利。
雷霆队的战绩提升至4胜0负,而马刺队则下降至1胜3负。圣安东尼奥将背靠背前往盐湖城挑战犹他爵士队。

比赛记录:
- 圣安东尼奥的失误问题在俄克拉荷马城依然存在。雷霆队是联盟中最擅长抢断对手球队的球队,但马刺队也没有帮到自己。他们的很多失误都是非受迫性失误,要么丢球,要么直接传球失误。如果马刺队一场比赛失误20次左右,他们很难成为一支高效的进攻型球队。
- 杰里米·索汉(Jeremy Sochan)仍然是马刺队最可靠的进攻球员之一。他在本场比赛中得到17分和9个篮板。他的进攻方式并不传统,而且缺乏投篮能力也给半场进攻带来了一些问题,但他的努力和力量让他在篮筐附近获得了一些很好的得分机会。他的个人表现一直很出色,但马刺队仍然没有找到让索汉和文班同时在场并发挥出色作用的方法。
- 在特雷·琼斯(Tre Jones)和德文·瓦塞尔(Devin Vassell)缺席的情况下,布拉纳姆充分利用了他的上场时间。他得到15分,三分球4投3中。布拉纳姆已经证明,当有机会时,他可以创造进攻机会。如果他能找到一些稳定性,并在防守端发挥作用,那么当球员伤愈复出后,他可以为自己赢得一些上场时间。
- 说到瓦塞尔和琼斯,马刺队在周三的比赛中显然很想念他们两人。没有他们,圣安东尼奥没有足够的进攻创造者。瓦塞尔提供了投篮和持球进攻的威胁,可以减轻文班亚马的一些压力。琼斯为第二阵容带来了稳定的掌控力,并且可以用他攻击性的防守和推进进攻节奏的能力制造一些混乱。
- 布雷克·韦斯利(Blake Wesley)在本赛季初表现挣扎。其他球队在防守端已经找到了对付他的方法。他们不介意他投三分球(通常会放空他去包夹其他球员),并且知道他只能用速度来伤害他们。他在周三的比赛中5投2中,得到5分。他的防守影响力仍然存在,这足以让他留在轮换阵容中。

Wembanyama’s struggles continue as Spurs lose second straight game
San Antonio can’t find an offensive rhythm in 105-93 loss to the Thunder.
The headlines for the San Antonio Spurs matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder highlighted the clash of two lanky, skilled big men in Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren. The matchup didn’t exactly live up to the hype, as Holmgren and the Thunder rolled the Spurs 105-93.
Wembanyama struggled for his second game in a row, putting up 6 points and 8 rebounds while shooting just 1-5 from the field. Much like Houston and Dallas did, the Thunder swarmed the big man whenever he touched the ball and played physically with him on the perimeter, either forcing a turnover (he had 4) or preventing him from making a move. He did make an impact defensively, deterring the Thunder in the paint with 3 blocks.
As the Spurs’ offense sputtered to start the game, the Thunder got hot from three. San Antonio shot just 29.2% from the field in the first quarter, while OKC shot 50% from three in the first half. San Antonio couldn’t create open looks against the stifling Thunder defense. OKC forced the Spurs to turn the ball over 22 times in the game. On offense, Oklahoma City did a good job of moving the ball and finding the open man both in the half-court and transition.
The Spurs came surging back in the third quarter on the backs of the veterans, Chris Paul and Harrison Barnes. Paul was assertive in the pick-and-roll and wasn’t afraid to pull from deep. He finished the game with 14 points and 9 assists while shooting 3-7 from deep. Barnes was solid as a floor spacer and made the Thunder pay for hard closeouts with attacks to the basket. He led San Antonio in scoring with 18 points on 7-12 shooting.
The Spurs managed to cut the lead to 7 at the start of the fourth quarter thanks to five straight points from Malaki Branham. The third-year guard got hot in the fourth quarter, but it wasn’t enough as the Thunder pulled away with some hot shooting from Lu Dort, who led the Thunder in scoring with 20 points and 6-8 shooting from deep. Holmgren had 19 points and 2 blocks in the win.
The Thunder improve to 4-0 as the Spurs fall to 1-3. San Antonio will hit the road for the second game of a back-to-back in Salt Lake City against the Utah Jazz.

Game Notes
- San Antonio’s turnover issue persisted in OKC. The Thunder are the best in the league at taking the ball away from their opponents, but the Spurs didn’t do themselves any favors. Too many of their errors were unforced, either losing the ball or just throwing it away. It’s going to be hard for the Spurs to be a productive offensive team giving the ball away around 20 times a game.
- Jeremy Sochan continues to be one of the Spurs more reliable offensive players. He had 17 points and 9 rebounds in the loss. It’s not conventional, and his lack of shooting creates some issues in the half court, but his effort and strength have gotten him some good looks around the basket. His individual performances have been solid, but the Spurs still haven’t figured out how to get he and Wembanyama to thrive while sharing the court together.
- Branham has been making the most of his minutes with Tre Jones and Devin Vassell missing time. He had 15 points and shot 3-4 from three. Branham has proven he can create offense when given the chance. If he can find some consistency, and be a factor on the defensive end, he could earn himself some minutes when players return from injury.
- Speaking of Vassell and Jones, the Spurs clearly missed both of them on Wednesday. San Antonio doesn’t have enough offensive creators without them. Vassell provides a shooting and off-the-dribble scoring threat that can take some of the pressure off Wembanyama. Jones brings a steady hand to the second unit, and can make some chaos happen with his point of attack defense and ability to push the pace offensively.
- Blake Wesley has struggled to start the season. Teams have figured him out defensively. They don’t mind if he shoots three pointers (often times leaving him wide open to double another player) and know he can only hurt them with his speed. He had 5 points on 2-5 shooting on Wednesday. His defensive impact is still there, and that’s enough to keep him in the rotation.
