周四晚上，克里斯·保罗(Chris Paul)接管了第四节的比赛，不知何故，特雷·琼斯(Tre Jones)感觉自己以前见过这一幕。
当保罗不断命中中距离跳投，送出助攻，指挥交通，并带领马刺队以126-118逆转战胜犹他爵士队时，琼斯回想起这位12届全明星球员在他注定要进入名人堂的职业生涯中无数次做出类似的事情。
琼斯的结论是什么？
“让他站在你这边比和他对位要好得多，”琼斯说道。
保罗在第四节砍下13分中的11分，帮助马刺队在弗罗斯特银行中心从20分的落后中反败为胜，击败了爵士队。
这是马刺队本赛季最大的逆转。
哈里森·巴恩斯(Harrison Barnes)连续第二场比赛刷新赛季得分新高，砍下25分和10个篮板。
扎克·科林斯(Zach Collins)和斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle)各自为马刺队贡献了18分。马刺队的三名得分主力维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)、德文·瓦塞尔(Devin Vassell)和杰里米·索汉(Jeremy Sochan)均缺阵。
劳里·马尔卡宁(Lauri Markkanen)为犹他爵士队贡献了27分，爵士队的战绩下滑至3胜12负，而约翰·科林斯(John Collins)则贡献了18分和14个篮板的两双数据。
正是39岁的保罗在第四节帮助马刺队克服了难关。他在这一节6投4中，送出了10次助攻中的3次，似乎总能在马刺队需要的时候找到得分机会。
一个连续三个回合的例子：保罗在马尔卡宁的严防下投进了一个三分球，然后与卡斯尔打了一个挡拆，为这位新秀赢得了一次打三分的机会，接着在另一次挡拆中假装传球给查尔斯·巴塞(Charles Bassey)，然后投进了一个中距离跳投。
当这波攻势结束时，马刺队在比赛还剩两分钟时以117-110领先。

周四，保罗对马刺队的竞争力印象深刻。
“我认为从第一天开始，我们在夏天对待事情的方式，我们在飞机上比赛的方式，无论是玩四子棋还是乒乓球，无论你做什么，你都要去赢，”保罗说道。“更衣室里有很多好胜的家伙。”
正如周四再次展现的那样，保罗无疑是其中之一。
以下是周四这场胜利的三个关键点，这场胜利使马刺队的战绩来到了8胜8负：
- 保罗天生就是为这些时刻而生的
即使即将年满40岁，即使左拇指扭伤严重缠着绷带，保罗在第四节也不会被阻挡。
“我喜欢势均力敌的比赛，”保罗说道。“当我们在这种比赛中输球时，我会感到沮丧。”
保罗在第四节摧毁对手的希望已经很久了。马刺队第二老的球员巴恩斯称保罗是“我们仍然拥有的最伟大的终结者之一”。
保罗在20个赛季中积累的智慧对于一支仍在学习如何完成比赛的年轻马刺队来说非常有用。
“我知道如何控制时间，我知道我想打的战术，我想投的球，”保罗说道。“比赛的最后三、四分钟是完全不同的比赛。你有一套你想打的战术。如果你的防守整场比赛都很糟糕，你会在最后时刻集中注意力。这就是我想要带给球队的东西。”
这似乎正在奏效。随着周四的胜利，马刺队在关键时刻的比赛中取得了3胜3负的战绩，而上赛季他们在这样的比赛中输掉了18场，创下了联盟最高纪录。
- 巴恩斯的影响不容忽视
虽然休赛期的大部分注意力都集中在保罗的到来上，但巴恩斯也已经悄然开始在马刺队留下自己的印记。
周四，巴恩斯连续第二场比赛刷新了赛季得分新高。两天前，在同样激动人心的战胜俄克拉荷马城的比赛中，巴恩斯得到了20分。
他在对阵爵士队的比赛中比那多了5分。
“我认为我们球队的优势在于不同的球员可以在任何一个晚上站出来，”巴恩斯说道。“在这两场比赛之前，我想我每场比赛只投了六次。所以我认为教练只是让我们打得更有侵略性。”
在上半场表现糟糕的情况下，巴恩斯几乎是马刺队唯一的支柱，他在中场休息前就砍下了17分。
“可能是因为克里斯的存在，他并不总是能得到关注，因为他一直很稳定，”代理教练米奇·约翰逊(Mitch Johnson)说道。“当我们感觉有点不适应的时候，他可能是唯一一个让我们保持平稳的人。”

- 巴塞的活力再次扭转了局面
文班的缺阵为查尔斯·巴塞在第二阵容中创造了上场时间。这位24岁的中锋连续第二场比赛展现了自己的存在感。
他在对阵爵士队的比赛中送出了职业生涯最高的6次盖帽，他的活力似乎在关键的第三节帮助马刺队克服了难关。
巴塞在这一节送出了3次盖帽并得到9分，马刺队将一度20分的落后缩小到进入第四节时的4分。
巴塞的表现如此出色，以至于约翰逊让他作为马刺队关键时刻的收官阵容的一部分留在场上。
到目前为止，巴塞的贡献让他赢得了老队友们的喜爱。
“在文班身后打球并不容易，”巴恩斯说道。“现在能够站出来打出这样的比赛，给我们带来提升，这些都是非常重要的。”

3 takeaways as Spurs steal a win vs. Utah without Wembanyama

Chris Paul took over the fourth quarter Thursday night, and somehow Tre Jones felt like he had seen this before.
As Paul pumped in mid-range jumpers, and doled out assists and directed traffic and willed the Spurs to a 126-118 comeback victory over Utah, Jones was taken back to all the times the 12-time All-Star had done something similar during a sure-to-be Hall-of-Fame career.
Jones’ conclusion?
“It’s much better having him on your side than playing against him,” Jones said.
Paul scored 11 of his 13 points in the fourth quarter to help the Spurs rally from a 20-point deficit and knock off the Jazz at the Frost Bank Center.
It was the Spurs’ largest comeback of the season.
Harrison Barnes scored a season high for the second game in a row, pouring in 25 points to go with 10 rebounds.
Zach Collins and Stephon Castle each scored 18 for the Spurs, who were without three top scorers in Victor Wembanyama, Devin Vassell and Jeremy Sochan.
Lauri Markkanen put in 27 points for Utah, which fell to 3-12, while John Collins added an 18-point, 14-rebound double-double.
It was the 39-year-old Paul who got the Spurs over the hump in the fourth quarter. He went 4 of 6 in the frame and gave out three of his 10 assists, always seeming to find a basket when the Spurs needed it.
One three-possession example: Paul threw in a contested 3-pointer over Markkanen, followed by running a pick-and-roll with Castle that resulted in a three-point play for the rookie, then faked a pass to Charles Bassey on a pick-and-roll and tossed in a mid-range jump shot.
By the time that flurry was over, the Spurs were ahead 117-110 going into the final two minutes.

Paul left Thursday impressed with the Spurs’ competitiveness.
“I think from Day 1, the way we approached things during the summer, the way we compete and practice on the plane, if it’s Connect 4, if it’s ping pong, whatever you do, you do it to win,” Paul said. “There’s competitive guys in that locker room.”
As Thursday showed again, Paul is certainly one of them.
Here are three takeaways from Thursday’s victory, which evened the Spurs’ record at 8-8:
1. Paul was born for these moments
Even on the cusp of turning 40, even with a sprained left thumb heavily bandaged, Paul was not going to be denied in the fourth quarter.
“I love close games,” Paul said. “I get frustrated when we do lose close games.”
Paul has been breaking opponents’ hearts in the fourth quarter for a long time. Harrison Barnes, the second-oldest player on the Spurs, calls Paul “one of the great closers in the game that we still have playing.”
The wisdom Paul has accumulated over 20 seasons has come in handy for a still young Spurs team learning what it takes to finish games.
“I know clock management, I know the plays, the shots that I want to get,” Paul said. “The last three, four minutes of a game is a totally different game. You got a package that you want to go to. If your defense sucked all game long, you sort of lock in. That’s what I try to bring to the team.”
It seems to be paying off. With Thursday’s victory, the Spurs improved to 3-3 in crunch-time games after losing a league-high 18 of them last season.
2. Barnes’ impact should not be overlooked
While much of the attention over the offseason was on the arrival of Paul, Barnes has quietly begun to make his mark on the Spurs as well.
For the second game in a row Thursday, Barnes set a season scoring high. Two nights earlier, in an equally stirring win over Oklahoma City, Barnes recorded 20 points.
He did that five better against the Jazz.
“I think the beauty of our team is different guys can step up on any given night,” Barnes said. “Before these last two games, I think I was shooting six shots a game. So I think the coaches just talked about being aggressive.”
Barnes was about all the Spurs had going for them during a dismal first half, pouring in 17 of his points before intermission.
“Probably because of Chris’ presence, he doesn’t always get the attention for being that steady hand,” acting coach Mitch Johnson said. “He was probably the one guy that was kind of keeping us afloat when we felt a little out of sorts.”

3. Once again, Bassey’s energy turns the tide
Wembanyama’s absence has created minutes on the second unit for Charles Bassey. For the second consecutive game, the 24-year-old center made his presence felt.
He had a career-best six blocks against the Jazz, with his energy seeming to lift the Spurs over the hump during a crucial third-quarter surge.
Bassey had three blocks and nine points during the frame, as the Spurs cut what had been a 20-point deficit to four heading into the fourth.
So good was Bassey that Johnson stuck with him as part of the Spurs’ closing lineup in crunch time.
Bassey’s contributions so far have endeared himself to his older teammates.
“It’s not easy playing behind Victor,” Barnes said. “To come in now and be able to have these type of games and give us a lift, those are big things.”
