马刺的“牛仔竞技表演之旅”将在孟菲斯收官，这也是这支银黑军团背靠背比赛的首晚。
马刺目前正经历四连败，今晚他们将面对孟菲斯灰熊，后者在2月3日以128-109的比分在孟菲斯血洗了马刺。在孟菲斯的两场比赛为银黑军团这段不幸的“牛仔竞技表演之旅”画上了句号，他们今年的客场战绩为3胜8负。如果排除在奥斯汀的两场比赛，那么客场战绩就是2胜7负，这在某种程度上象征着他们在客场之旅中是如何一蹶不振的：他们失去了本赛季最好的球员，并且上周从他们的教练和球队领袖那里得到了（某种程度上是意料之中的）消息，他宣布自己赛季报销。
灰熊正在经历背靠背比赛的第二晚，所以马刺今晚在休息方面占有优势，但我不确定这对一支自2月20日对阵太阳的比赛以来就没有表现出任何活力的球队来说是否重要。除了凯尔登·约翰逊，很难指出马刺队中还有谁表现出色，这使得比赛非常难看。火箭比赛中唯一值得一看的部分是，当两队的首发球员都下场休息时，马刺的垃圾时间阵容表现出了一些斗志，并使比分不那么难堪。其中一些球员应该得到更多的上场时间，直到本赛季结束，因为观看那些尚未彻底放弃的球员比赛更有趣。
现在是德阿隆·福克斯摆脱低迷状态的好时机，因为自从他在奥斯汀的首场比赛以来，他一直表现不佳。他在客场的时间甚至比马刺的其他球员还要长，所以他有一些内在的借口。俾斯麦·比永博将面临与小贾伦·杰克逊的艰难对决，如果他能造成犯规并通过让他陷入犯规麻烦来限制他的上场时间，这可能是限制他的最佳方式。德文·瓦塞尔正处于他职业生涯中最严重的低迷状态，他应该将本赛季剩下的时间用来重新发现篮球的乐趣，像一只自由的小鸟一样打球，不要担心投篮不中或犯错。他要么通过努力摆脱这种低迷状态，要么将自己踢出球队。让我们希望是前者而不是后者。

Game Preview: San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies
The Rodeo Road Trip wraps up in Memphis on the first night of a back-to-back for the Silver and Black
The Spurs are on a four game losing streak and tonight they face the Memphis Grizzlies who blasted the Spurs in Memphis 128-109 on February 3. The games in Memphis form the bookends for an unfortunate Rodeo Road Trip month for the Silver and Black, who are 3-8 on this year’s tour. If you exclude the two games in Austin, that’s a 2-7 road trip, which is somewhat emblematic of how the wheels have fallen off the bus while they’ve been on the road this trip, with losing their best player for the season and getting (somewhat expected) news from their coach and team leader last week when he ruled himself out for the rest of the season.
The Grizzlies are on the second night of a back-to-back, so the Spurs have a rest advantage tonight, but I’m not sure that matters for a team that hasn’t shown any signs of life since the Suns game on February 20. Other than Keldon Johnson, it’s hard to point out anyone on the Spurs that’s doing well, and it’s making the games pretty hard to watch. About the only part of the Rockets game was when the starters for both teams hit the bench and the Spurs garbage time squad showed some fight and made the score a little less embarrassing. Some of those guys should be rewarded with more playing time for the rest of the season, because it’s a lot more fun to watch players that aren’t checked out already.
It would be a great time for De’Aaron Fox to break out of his slump, because he hasn’t played well since his opening game in Austin. He has been on the road even longer than the rest of the Spurs, so he has a bit of a built in excuse. Bismack Biyombo will have a tough matchup against Jaren Jackson Jr. and if he can draw fouls and limit his minutes by getting him into foul trouble, that might be the best way to contain him. Devin Vassell is in the deepest slump of his playing career, and he should devote the rest of this season to rediscovering the joy of basketball and playing free as a bird, and not worrying about missing shots of making mistakes. He’s either going to play himself out of this slump, or he’s going to play himself off the team. Let’s hope it’s the former and not the latter.
