在一个进攻唱主角，赛程轻松的一周里，马刺只有在防守（勉强）在线的时候才赢球。
欢迎来到“赛季回顾”：一个每周一发布的栏目，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，以及更多精彩内容。敬请欣赏！
第20周 : 在经历了漫长的牛仔竞技表演客场之旅后，马刺在主场球迷面前取得了近一个月来的首胜（感谢对手篮网）。但紧接着，他们又踏上了客场之旅，面对两支火力十足的球队——国王和森林狼。人手短缺的马刺队无论在外线还是内线都难以招架，最终以1胜2负结束了这周的比赛，结果也在意料之中。
第21周：2胜2负（28胜38负，西部第13）
129-133 负于 达拉斯独行侠
回顾 : 尽管德文·瓦塞尔(Devin Vassell)、哈里森·巴恩斯(Harrison Barnes)和凯尔登·约翰逊(Keldon Johnson)都得到了20多分，但糟糕的防守和罚球让马刺队在一场令人尴尬的失利中，输给了阵容不整，相比之下显得非常健康的独行侠队。
126-116 胜 达拉斯独行侠
回顾 : 在糟糕的首节过后，马刺似乎又要再次被独行侠队羞辱。这支独行侠队由于伤病和双向球员出场次数限制，可能面临被强制取消比赛的风险。但随后马刺队终于加强了防守，并在达龙·福克斯(De’Aaron Fox) 接近三双的表现带领下取得了胜利。这也是福克斯在接受手指手术前，本赛季的最后一场比赛。
134-145 负 夏洛特黄蜂
回顾 : 这是福克斯缺阵后，马刺本赛季首场真正意义上的“摆烂”比赛。马刺队的防守再次失灵，而黄蜂队则命中了创队史纪录的26个三分球。其中一部分可以归因于对手手感火热，但这也是马刺队一周内第二次在常规时间内失分超过140分。最终，你不得不开始审视防守问题，而不是将其归咎于运气不佳。在没有维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)的情况下，他们的防守是联盟中最差的。
119-115 胜 新奥尔良鹈鹕
回顾 : 马刺队有机会在第二天反弹，完成一个 FIGASENI（指连续四场主场比赛）。他们也确实做到了，击败了没有锡安·威廉姆森(Zion Williamson)的鹈鹕队。首发阵容表现不佳，但防守有所改善（加上鹈鹕队三分球手感不佳），替补阵容帮助马刺队取得了胜利，最终以2胜2负结束了这周的比赛（通常情况下，这听起来很棒，但考虑到赛程轻松以及比赛的过程，感觉有点“平平无奇”）。
实力榜
John Schuhmann, NBA.com — 23 (上周: 21)
进攻效率: 113.7 (16) 防守效率: 116.1 (25) 净效率: -2.4 (20) 节奏: 100.1 (13)
上周，马刺队有机会让西部季后赛附加赛的形势变得更加有趣，他们与排名第10的独行侠队平分秋色。然后他们宣布达龙·福克斯本赛季报销。
两个要点
自全明星赛后（维克托·文班亚马缺席），马刺队的防守效率现在排名联盟垫底。阵容严重不整的独行侠队在上周一打出了他们本赛季第二高的进攻效率（98回合得到133分），而四天后，进攻效率排名联盟第29位的黄蜂队打出了本赛季所有球队中第三高的进攻效率（99回合得到145分）。在三月份的九场比赛中，马刺队有五场比赛的每百回合失分超过130分，而此前他们只有四次做到这一点。
当福克斯和文班亚马同时在场时，马刺队的战绩为2胜3负，而在其他情况下，福克斯在场时，战绩仅为4胜8负。在他出战的五周时间里，当他不在场时，他们的每百回合得分比他在场时高出12.6分（+5.3分 vs. -7.3分）。
马刺队将在周一进行一场对阵湖人队的补赛。然后他们将连续六场比赛对阵东部联盟的球队。
Brett Siegel, Clutch Points — 21 (上周: 22)
圣安东尼奥马刺队现在与开拓者队战绩相同，并且仍在寻求一波小高潮，以进入西部的附加赛区域。最近，德文·瓦塞尔和斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle)这对年轻组合带领着马刺队的进攻，而维克托·文班亚马和达龙·福克斯本赛季已经报销。圣安东尼奥仍然有足够的运动能力和天赋来制造一些冷门，并在今年晚些时候扮演搅局者的角色。
未来赛程： 3月17日周一 客场对阵洛杉矶湖人队（补赛）；3月19日周三 主场对阵纽约尼克斯队；3月21日周五 主场对阵费城76人队；3月23日周日 客场对阵多伦多猛龙队
预测：1胜3负—— 当我相信的时候（比如上周），我就要倒霉了。虽然从纸面上看，这看起来又是2胜2负的一周，但我选择预测1胜3负，试图进行反向毒奶。这将是马刺队首次在卢卡·东契奇(Luka Doncic)在场的情况下对阵湖人队，但勒布朗·詹姆斯(LeBron James)将会缺席。主场对阵尼克斯队是本周最有可能输掉的比赛（虽然我们总是可以梦想上赛季末的那场对决），但没有乔尔·恩比德(Joel Embiid)（以及可能还有其他许多人）的76人队肯定是可以击败的，猛龙队也是如此。一如既往，问题将是马刺队能否更好地阻止对手，而不是阻止自己。

Week in Review: Defense — or lack thereof — is the decider in Spurs’ home stand
In a week that was all about offense against an easy schedule, the Spurs only won when the defense (sorta) showed up.
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 20: After getting their first win in front of their home crowd in over month (thanks to the Rodeo Road Trip) against the Nets, the Spurs were right back out in the road against two teams — the Kings and Timberwolves — that had too much firepower outside and size down low for the shorthanded Spurs to contend with, leading to a predictable 1-2 week.
Week 21: 2-2 (28-38, 13th in West)
129-133 loss vs. Dallas Mavericks
Recap: Despite getting 20+ points from Devin Vassell, Harrison Barnes and Keldon Johnson, poor defense and free throw shooting let the Spurs down against a skeleton crew Mavericks squad that makes them look perfectly healthy by comparison in one of their more embarrassing losses of the season.
126-116 win vs. Dallas Mavericks
Recap: After a bad first quarter made it look like the Spurs could be in for more embarrassment against a Mavs team that might be headed towards forfeiting games due to injuries and two-way players running out of games, the Spurs finally upped their defensive effort while riding De’Aaron Fox’s near-triple-double to victory in what was his last game of the season ahead of finger surgery.
134-145 loss vs. Charlotte Hornets
Recap: In their first official “tank” game of the season with Fox out, the Spurs defense played its part while the Hornets hit a franchise-record 26 threes. Some of that can just be chalked to the other team being extremely hot, but it was the second time in a week the Spurs gave up over 140 points in regulation, and eventually you have to start looking at the defense over bad luck, and they have been by far the worst in the league without Victor Wembanyama.
119-115 win vs. New Orleans Pelicans
Recap: The Spurs got a chance to bounce back the very next night to finish off a FIGASENI, and they did just enough against the Zion Williamson-less Pelicans. The starters weren’t great, but the defense was better (plus the Pelicans weren’t hot from three), and the bench unit helped will the Spurs to victory and a 2-2 week (which normally would sound great at this point, but the easy schedule and how they got there made it feel pretty “meh”).
Power Rankings
John Schuhmann, NBA.com— 23 (last week: 21)
OffRtg: 113.7 (16) DefRtg: 116.1 (25) NetRtg: -2.4 (20) Pace: 100.1 (13)
With a chance to make things interesting regarding the last SoFi Play-In Tournament spot in the West, the Spurs split two games with the 10th-place Mavs last week. Then they shut down De’Aaron Fox for the season.
Two takeaways
The Spurs now rank last defensively since the All-Star break (when Victor Wembanyama was shut down). The super-shorthanded Mavs had their second most-efficient offensive game of the season (133 points on 98 possessions) last Monday, and four nights later, the Hornets (who rank 29th offensively) had the third-most-efficient game for any team this season (145 on 99). The Spurs have allowed more than 130 per 100 in five of their nine March games, having done so four times prior.
The Spurs were 2-3 with both Fox and Wembanyama in the lineup and were just 4-8 with Fox otherwise. Over the five weeks that he was available, they were 12.6 points per 100 possessions better with him off the floor (plus-5.3) than they were with him on the floor (minus-7.3).
The Spurs have a one-game trip to make up a game against the Lakers on Monday. They’ll then play six straight games against the Eastern Conference.
Brett Siegel, Clutch Points— 21 (last week: 22)
The San Antonio Spurs are now tied with the Blazers and are still hunting for a small run to rise into the play-in region of the West standings. Their young tandem of Devin Vassell and Stephon Castle have led the Spurs’ offense as of late, with Victor Wembanyama and De’Aaron Fox done for the season. San Antonio still has enough athletes and talent to pull off some upsets and play the role of spoilers late in the year.
Coming up: Mon. 3/17 at Los Angeles Lakers (make-up game); Wed. 3/19 vs. New York Knicks; Fri. 3/21 vs. Philadelphia 76ers; Sun. 3/23 at Toronto Raptors
Prediction: 1-3 — When I believe (like last week), I get burned. While this looks like another 2-2 week on paper, I’m going with 1-3 to attempt the reverse-jinx. This will be the first time the Spurs face the Lakers with Luka Doncic, but LeBron James will be out. At home against the Knicks is the closest thing to a scheduled loss this week (although we can always dream of last season’s late matchup), but Philly sans Joel Embiid (and possibly many others) is certainly beatable, as is Toronto. As always, the question will be if the Spurs can stop their opponents more than they stop themselves.
