我们都沉浸在情感的玻璃柜中。
我们的圣安东尼奥马刺队在首节40分的荣耀光芒中飞翔，但蜡和羽毛做成的翅膀很快就失效了。但让我们关注积极的一面。我看到40-14的首节领先优势，心想：“酷。我们肯定可以翘起二郎腿，放松一下，然后我可以想一些妙语来描述所有精彩的集锦。”唉，事与愿违，别叫我们雪莉（注：此处为电影空前绝后的双关梗）。
但积极的方面是：年轻的马刺队在本场比赛中展现了一些闪光点，文班亚马以24分领跑全场，抢下13个篮板，并送出了令人瞠目结舌的9次盖帽。克里斯·保罗(Chris Paul)一如既往地再次汲取了青春之泉，展示了他的球场视野和篮球智商。他还贡献了两双，得到14分和10次助攻。朱利安·尚帕尼(Julian Champagnie)得到赛季最高的21分，帮助球队保持节奏。
文班的脚步最让我印象深刻。在这里，他巧妙地绕过两名防守队员，灵巧地找到了杰里米·索汉(Jeremy Sochan)完成空接暴扣。索汉在因伤离场前正朝着另一个快速开局前进。这支马刺队还没有完全磨合好，所以希望索汉和德文·瓦塞尔(Devin Vassell)以及波波维奇教练能尽快回归！

斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle)在低位展示了一些动作，他用假动作轻松得分。虽然这位新秀肯定会随着赛季的进行而进步，但很高兴看到这位前华盛顿大学球星展现出多样化且较为成熟的进攻技巧。
是的，没错，40分！

在这里，文班亚马尽其所能地模仿神奇先生，将球扇给尚帕尼，后者聪明地将球传给保罗，保罗运球过半场，助攻快攻得分，而接球的正是文班亚马，他在最后一刻飞奔而来，就像斯汀(Sting)单挑nWo的40名成员一样。

保罗用这记漂亮的传球将他的空接之城氛围移植到了马刺队，助攻文班亚马单手暴扣。说到这里，这位二年级的马刺球员什么时候能像保罗之前的空接搭档布雷克·格里芬(Blake Griffin)那样获得自己的汽车赞助呢？我想应该是一款可折叠的电动加长SUV，适合那些无论有没有孩子、需要灵活空间且车库空间不大的人。这看起来像是荷马·辛普森(Homer Simpson)脑袋里想出的荒谬设计，从工程角度来看可能也不可行，但我只是在这里写我们最喜欢的球队，而不是成为下一个普雷斯顿·塔克(Preston Tucker)。

角度、视野、妙传。完美。我就是喜欢漂亮的击地传球，而CP3给文班亚马送出了一记美妙的弹地传球，助其完成扣篮。在开局稍显慢热之后，保罗现在已经连续三场比赛助攻上双，场均助攻8.7次，略低于他9.3次的职业生涯平均水平。
我认为可以肯定地说，随着他和文班亚马以及其他队友之间的默契越来越好，这个数字还会上升，而他们现在看起来已经相当合拍了。

文班亚马用假动作和强大的力量完成了这记扣篮。他跳得如此之高（而且他本身就很高），以至于在将球砸进篮筐之前，他的眼睛几乎与篮筐平齐。
这场比赛中有很多瑕疵，就像一些粗糙的碳，最终会被打磨成钻石。就文班亚马而言，他的赛季开局缓慢且不稳定，但与他的新秀赛季相比，他似乎会更快地找到节奏。

Victor Wembanyama flirts with a triple-double in loss to the L.A. Clippers
We are all in a glass case of emotion.
Our San Antonio Spurs flew close to the sun, basking in the glory of a 40-point opening quarter, but the wax and feather wings soon wore off. But let’s focus on the positives. I saw the 40-14 first quarter lead and thought, “Cool. Surely we can proverbially and literally kick our legs up, relax, and then I can think of witty things to write for all of the fantastic highlights to pick from.” Alas, it was not meant to be, and don’t call us Shirley.
But for the positives: the young Spurs provided some gems in a game where Victor Wembanyama led all players with 24 points, pulled down 13 boards, and swatted an eye-popping 9 shots. Chris Paul, as he tends to do, dipped once again into the fountain of youth and showed off his floor vision and basketball IQ. He also put up a double-double with 14 points and 10 assists. Julian Champagnie was able to score a season-high 21 points to help pace the good guys.
The footwork of Wembanyama continues to impress me most. Here, he surgically operates around two defenders to deftly find Jeremy Sochan for the flush. Sochan was on his way to another fast start before leaving with an injury. These Spurs aren’t fully operational yet so hopefully they get Sochan and Devin Vassell back sooner than later (and Coach Popovich as well!)

Stephon Castle showed off some moves down low as he pump faked his way for an easy bucket. While the rookie will certainly improve as the season wears on, it’s nice seeing a varied and somewhat mature offensive game from the former Husky.
yes that’s right, 40 points!

Here, Wembanyama did his best Mr. Fantastic impression and smacked the ball to Julian Champagnie, who smartly gave it to Chris Paul, who navigated down the court to set up the transition bucket to none other than Wembanyama, who came barreling in at the last moment like he was Sting taking on 40 members of the nWo.

Chris Paul transplanted his lob city vibes to the Spurs with this beautiful feed to Wembanyama for the one-handed flush. Speaking of which, when does the sophomore Spur get his own car sponsorship like Mr. Paul’s former lob partner, Blake Griffin? I’m thinking something along the lines of an electric collapsible stretch SUV for people with or without kids who need flexibility and do not have much garage space. It may seem like some nonsensical design concocted from the head of Homer Simpson, and it may not seem feasible from an engineering standpoint, but hey I’m just here to write about our favorite team not be the next Preston Tucker.

The angle, the vision, the dime. Perfection. I just love a good bounce pass, and CP3 delivered a bee-au-tee-full richochet to Wembanyama for the dunk. After a slow-ish start, Paul is now on a 3-game double-digit assist streak and sitting at 8.7 assists per game, just below his career average of 9.3.
I think it’s safe to say that number will go up as he and Wembanyama and the rest of the team get more comfortable together than they already look like so far.

With the fake and the authority, Wembanyama sent this jam home. He got up so high (and he’s just so tall) that he’s practically eye level to the rim before thundering the ball through.
A lot of warts in this game came with some rough carbon that will eventually be shaped into diamond. Wembanyama, for his part, has had a slow and inconsistent start to the season, but it does look like he’ll be snapping into rhythm sooner than later compared to his rookie season.
