无名英雄在每场比赛中都挺身而出,帮助马刺在面对强劲对手的情况下取得了令人难以置信的3胜0负的战绩。
欢迎来到周回顾:这是一个周一特辑,回顾 *圣安东尼奥马刺 * 过去一周的表现,展望未来一周的赛程,以及更多内容。敬请欣赏!
第4周 : 由于维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)连续三场比赛的三分爆发以及斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle)作为得分威胁的出现,马刺在进攻端焕发了新的生机。
第5周:3胜0负(9胜8负,西部第10)
110-104战胜俄克拉荷马城雷霆(NBA杯)
回顾 : 尽管缺少了队内得分排名前三的球员,但马刺凭借凯尔登·约翰逊(Keldon Johnson)上半场的爆发,在对阵当时西部领头羊雷霆的比赛中取得了令人难以置信的领先优势。他们一度将领先优势扩大到21分,但在谢伊·吉尔杰斯-亚历山大(Shai Gilgeous-Alexander)的带领下,雷霆发起了反击。最终,马刺凭借卡斯尔在关键时刻封盖这位MVP候选人,守住了胜果,取得了队史首场NBA杯的胜利。
126-118战胜犹他爵士(NBA杯)
回顾 : 仍然缺少队内得分排名前三的球员,或许是因为上一场胜利的兴奋劲儿还没过,马刺在对阵垫底球队犹他爵士的比赛中开局缓慢且失误频频,上半场一度落后多达20分。中场休息后,他们很可能在更衣室里被教练训了一顿,下半场在防守端更加专注,查尔斯·巴塞(Charles Bassey)替补出场送出6次盖帽(自1984年以来马刺球员替补出场盖帽最多),马刺强势反击,取得了两连胜。
104-94战胜金州勇士
回顾 : 随着文班亚马的回归,马刺本周第二次面对西部最强球队。他们再次开局缓慢,早早落后两位数,但他们又一次在下半场觉醒,静待勇士(背靠背的第二场比赛)疲态尽显。最终,马刺在比赛的最后13分钟里以40-13的比分力压对手,每位球员都做出了巨大贡献,同时将斯蒂芬·库里(Stephen Curry)的得分限制在14分,并在本赛季首次胜率过半。
实力排行榜
John Schuhmann, NBA.com — 第13名(上周:第19名)
进攻效率: 110.8 (21) 防守效率: 110.6 (8) 净效率: +0.2 (15) 节奏: 98.9 (17)
马刺取得了三连胜,战胜了西部联盟中最好的两支球队,胜率首次超过.500。
三个要点
前两场胜利是在没有文班亚马的情况下取得的,马刺将雷霆和爵士的得分限制在每百回合仅106.7分。这波连胜也伴随着哈里森·巴恩斯(Harrison Barnes)本赛季得分最高的三场比赛,巴恩斯在周六对阵勇士的比赛中在最后时刻命中了两记关键球,帮助马刺完成了对老东家的惊天逆转。
马刺在过去的四场比赛中都曾落后两位数,但现在他们在落后10分或更多的情况下取得了四场胜利(4胜7负)。上赛季,他们在前33场落后10分或更多分的比赛中只赢了两场(最终战绩为8胜53负)。他们在周六的比赛中一度落后17分,但在最后13分钟以40-13的比分反超勇士。
马刺在过去四场比赛中的总净胜分只有+7。但他们在罚球线上以+38(89-51)领先对手,对手每百回合出手仅获得16.5次罚球机会。因此,他们在对手罚球率最低的球队排名中(20.4次/百回合)略微领先于凯尔特人。
本周马刺将要面对的罚球率最高的球队(进攻端)是湖人和爵士。在过去16天里,他们三次在罚球线上输给对手的两场分别是输给犹他(一分惜败,罚球线上输了8分)和湖人(五分惜败,罚球线上输了6分)。
Brett Siegel, Clutch Points — 第13名(上周:第23名)
维克托·文班亚马和圣安东尼奥马刺是上周最大的赢家。马刺目前取得了三连胜,其中包括战胜雷霆和勇士的关键胜利。更棒的是,战胜雷霆的比赛是在没有文班的情况下取得的。让圣安东尼奥成为一支危险球队的因素是他们对于比赛逆转的信念和能力。这支年轻的球队正在逐渐找到自信,而克里斯·保罗(Chris Paul)则继续证明了为什么他是联盟中最优秀的领袖之一。
即将到来: 11月26日 周二 @ 犹他爵士(是的,又是他们);11月27日 周三 对阵 洛杉矶湖人;12月1日 周日 @ 萨克拉门托国王
预测:2胜1负 — 我上周1胜2负的预测显然被这出人意料的结果彻底推翻了。虽然本周的赛程从对手的角度来看并不那么艰巨,但阻碍我全力以赴的一个因素是马刺的客场战绩。他们客场战绩仅为1胜5负,相对缺乏考验,而且还没有证明他们能够在没有主场球迷支持的情况下拿出同样的强度。如果他们能展现出在客场的实力,我就会成为真正的信徒。

Week in Review: Shorthanded Spurs show off their depth with surprising undefeated week
Unsung heroes showed up in each game to help the Spurs to in improbable 3-0 week against stiff competition.
Welcome to the Week in Review: a Monday feature that looks back at the week that was for the San Antonio Spurs, takes a look at the week ahead, and more. Enjoy!
Week 4: The Spurs found new life on offense thanks to a three-game explosion from three from Victor Wembanyama and the emergence of Stephon Castle as a scoring threat.
Week 5: 3-0 (9-8, 10th in West)
110-104 win vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (NBA Cup)
Recap: Despite missing their top three scorers to injury, the Spurs built an improbable lead against the then West-leading Thunder on the back of a first-half explosion from Keldon Johnson. They managed to get the lead as high as 21 before Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led a Thunder charge back, but the Spurs held on for the win, sealed by a clutch Castle block of the MVP candidate to get their first ever Cup win.
126-118 win vs. Utah Jazz (NBA Cup)
Recap: Still missing their top three scorers and perhaps riding the high of their previous win, the Spurs came out slow and sloppy against the cellar-dwelling Utah Jazz, getting down by as much as 20 in the first half. After likely receiving an earful in the locker room, they came out more focused on the defensive end in the second half, led by 6 blocks of the bench from Charles Bassey (the most off the bench for a Spurs player since 1984), and the Spurs roared back for their second straight win.
104-94 win vs. Golden State Warriors
Recap: With Victor Wembanyama back, the Spurs faced the best team in the West for a second time this week. They again got out to a slow start, getting behind by double digits early, but once again they woke up in the second half, biding their time until the Warriors (who were on the second night of a back-to-back) wore out. Overall, the Spurs outscored their opponent 40-13 in the final 13 minutes of the games, getting big contributions from everyone while holding Steph Curry to just 14 points in the game and getting on the winning side of .500 for the first time this season.
Power Rankings
John Schuhmann, NBA.com— 13 (last week: 19)
OffRtg: 110.8 (21) DefRtg: 110.6 (8) NetRtg: +0.2 (15) Pace: 98.9 (17)
The Spurs have won three straight games, with wins over the two best teams in the Western Conference, to climb over .500 for the first time.
Three takeaways
The first two wins came without Victor Wembanyama as the Spurs held the Thunder and Jazz to just 106.7 points per 100 possessions. This winning streak has also come with Harrison Barnes’ three highest-scoring games of the season, and Barnes had a pair of big buckets down the stretch against the Warriors on Saturday, helping the Spurs complete a crazy comeback against his former team.
The Spurs have trailed each of their last four games by double-digits, but now have four wins (they’re 4-7) after trailing by 10 points or more. Last season, they won only two of the first 33 games that they trailed by 10 or more (finishing 8-53). They were down 17 late in the third quarter on Saturday before outscoring the Warriors, 40-13, over the final 13 minutes.
The Spurs’ total point differential over their last four games is just plus-7. But they’re a plus-38 (89-51) at the free throw line over that stretch, with their opponents attempting just 16.5 free throws per 100 shots from the field. With that, they’re a hair ahead of the Celtics for the lowest opponent free throw rate (20.4 per 100) for the season.
The top two teams in free throw rate (on offense) are the Lakers and Jazz, who the Spurs will face this week. Two of the three times they’ve been outscored at the line are losses to Utah (by one point, minus-8 at the line) and L.A. (by five points, minus-6 at the line) in the last 16 days.
Brett Siegel, Clutch Points — 13 (last week: 23)
Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs are the biggest winners of this past week. The Spurs find themselves on a three-game win streak, which has been held together with staple victories over the Thunder and Warriors. Better yet, this win against the Thunder came without Wemby on the court. What makes San Antonio a dangerous team is their belief and ability to comeback in games. This young team is beginning to find their confidence, and Chris Paul continues to prove why he is one of the best leaders in the entire league.
Coming up: Tues. 11/26 @ Utah Jazz (yes, again); Wed. 11/27 vs. Los Angeles Lakers; Sun. 12/1 @ Sacramento Kings
Prediction: 2-1 — My 1-2 prediction from last week certainly got blown out of the water in surprising fashion, and while this week’s schedule isn’t nearly as daunting from an opponent standpoint, the one thing preventing me from going all in is the Spurs’ road record. They are relatively untested, sitting at just 1-5 and yet to show they can bring the same level of intensity without the home crowd behind them. Show me they can bring it on the road, and I’ll be a true believer.
