NBA的昔日霸主与近期的未来之星将在今晚于弗罗斯特银行中心碰撞
距离斯蒂芬·库里(Stephen Curry)和金州勇士队赢得第一个总冠军已经快10年了,那也是他们巩固NBA王朝地位的4个总冠军中的第一个。如今,他们再次发现自己处于竞争的中心。随着克莱·汤普森(Klay Thompson)在休赛期以自由球员身份离队,库里、德雷蒙德·格林(Draymond Green)和克莱·汤普森组成的长期三巨头也随之解散。但是,在新赛季的第一个完整月即将结束之际,库里、格林和主教练史蒂夫·科尔(Steve Kerr)带领金州勇士队稳居竞争激烈的西部联盟榜首。即使在职业生涯的后期,库里和格林仍然分别是金州勇士队进攻和防守的支柱,而球队的其他成员似乎也已经融入其中。他们是否会认真争夺总冠军还有待观察,但从早期来看,他们具备一支争冠球队的潜质。
即使在本赛季初经历了各种伤病,圣安东尼奥马刺队仍在周四晚上凭借一场逆转战胜了犹他爵士队,取得了本赛季的第8场胜利。众所周知,马刺队上赛季11月的表现非常糟糕,直到2024年1月20日才取得文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)新秀赛季的第8场胜利,这使得他们在圣诞节到来之前就彻底退出了附加赛的争夺。由于他们在防守端的投入,使他们的防守效率排名前十,加上文班亚马在进攻端的统治力和控球之神克里斯·保罗(Chris Paul)的精明指挥,这会是马刺重返NBA季后赛的一年吗?

马刺队伤病情况: 索汉(Jeremy Sochan),拇指(缺阵),文班亚马,膝盖(出战成疑),德文·瓦塞尔(Devin Vassell),膝盖(出战成疑),凯尔登·约翰逊(Keldon Johnson),腿筋紧张(出战成疑)
勇士队伤病情况: 库里,膝盖(每日观察),里斯·比克曼(Reece Beekman)(缺阵)
比赛看点
- 距离37岁生日还有几个月,库里的表现依然令人惊叹,尤其是在后卫位置上。在15场比赛中,他的投篮命中率接近50/40/90,他仍然让防守球员在他过半场的那一刻就心生恐惧。他的一个膝盖患有滑囊炎,并且昨晚打了33分钟,所以他有可能不会出战这场金州勇士的背靠背第二场比赛。
- 特雷斯·杰克逊-戴维斯(Trayce Jackson-Davis)在出色的新秀赛季基础上更进一步,取代凯文·卢尼(Kevon Looney)成为金州勇士队的首发中锋。这位身高6英尺9英寸的二年级球员利用他的运动能力,充满活力地比赛,不知疲倦地从底线跑到底线,并为勇士队提供了一个稳定的内线得分选择。
- 在过去两年中处理了场外的一些问题后,安德鲁·威金斯(Andrew Wiggins)似乎回到了金州勇士在库里时代赢得第四个总冠军时完美扮演的角色。也就是说,他是一个顽强的防守者,可以依靠他投进空位投篮,并防守对方最好的外线球员。在金州勇士队昨晚战胜新奥尔良鹈鹕队的比赛中,他砍下了30分。
- 乔纳森·库明加(Jonathon Kuminga)本赛季的出场时间有些不稳定。库明加是一位充满活力、展现出潜力的运动员,本赛季大部分时间都是史蒂夫·科尔的第一替补。看看勇士队未来如何使用他将会很有趣。
- 前马刺球员凯尔·安德森(Kyle Anderson)在金州勇士队找到了新家。

Game Preview: San Antonio Spurs vs Golden State Warriors
The NBA’s recent past and near future clash tonight at the Frost Bank Center
It’s coming up on 10 years since Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors won the first of 4 championships that would solidify them as an NBA dynasty, and they find themselves in the thick of things once again. Their longtime Big 3 of Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson broke up this off-season with the departure of Thompson in free agency, but Curry, Green and head coach Steve Kerr have Golden State sitting atop the deep Western Conference standings as the first full month of the season enters its final week. Even this late into their careers, Curry and Green remain Golden State’s fulcrum on offense and defense respectively, and the rest of the team appears to have bought in. Whether or not they will seriously compete for the title remains to be seen, but early on they have the look of a team that should be in the mix.
Even with all the injuries they’ve weathered in the early going this season, the San Antonio Spurs managed to pick up their 8th win of the year Thursday night in a comeback win against the Utah Jazz. San Antonio, who had a notoriously poor November last season, didn’t pick up their 8th win of Victor Wembanyama’s rookie year until January 20th, leaving them firmly out of the play-in picture by the time Christmas had rolled around. Thanks to a commitment on the defensive end that has them in the top 10 in Defensive Efficiency and an offense led by physical dominance of Wembanyama and the savyness of Point God Chris Paul, could this be the year the Spurs make their return to the NBA Playoffs?

What to watch for
- A few months shy of his 37th birthday, it’s amazing to watch what Stephen Curry is still doing, especially as a backcourt player. Only a few ticks shy of a 50/40/90 shooting line 15 games, he still instills fear in the hearts of defenders the moment he crosses half court. He’s dealing with bursitis in one of his knees and did play 33 minutes last night, so there’s a chance he’s not out there on what would be a SEGABABA for Golden State.
- Trayce Jackson-Davis has built on a strong rookie season by claiming Golden State’s starting center spot over Kevon Looney. The 6’9 sophomore uses his athleticism to his advantage, plays with a ton of energy, runs from baseline to baseline hard and gives the Warriors a solid scoring option inside.
- After dealing with off the court issues for parts of the last two years, Andrew Wiggins appears to be back to playing the role that he filled so perfectly when Golden State won their 4th title in the Curry Era. Namely, a tenacious defender that can be relied on to hit open shots and guard the opposing team’s best perimeter player. He had a 30-burger in Golden State’s win last night over the New Orleans Pelicans.
- Jonathon Kuminga’s playing time has been a bit all over the place this season. Kuminga, a dynamic athlete who has shown flashes of potential, has been Steve Kerr’s first man off the bench most of the season. It will be interesting to see what the Warriors do with him going forward.
- Former Spur Kyle Anderson has found a new home in Golden State.
