观看两支与一月份原本应出战的球队截然不同的球队。

天啊，自从一月以来，事情真的变化很大。我原本买了安排在1月初在洛杉矶举行的两场马刺背靠背比赛的门票。由于山火，第一场比赛被取消了，正如我在此所述。那篇文章的结尾是：

为了稍微放松一下心情，今天早上我骑自行车去了我家附近的室外球场练习投篮。球场上覆盖着灰烬。

这里的情况已经有所改善，球队能够在两天后进行系列赛的第二场比赛，我有幸观看了马刺以126-102击败湖人。在三节结束时比分持平的情况下，马刺在第四节以37-13击败湖人。天啊，那真是太有趣了。我在那场比赛后的文章要乐观得多，这既是因为马刺的胜利，也是因为我们第二天早上醒来时空气中没有烟雾。

我以我超级儿子帕布罗(Pablo)的引言和湖人球迷丹(Dan)的另一段引言作为结尾：

艰难地坐了三个节，这取决于我父亲坐在谁旁边。也就是说，我第四节坐在他旁边，他似乎因为某种原因很高兴。我想他一直想坐在我旁边。很高兴马刺赢了！也很高兴看到他们的年轻球员表现出色。

长期湖人球迷丹不太高兴，但他确实完成了一件事：

“马刺在第四节对湖人的痛击太糟糕了，我不得不通过发准桑德罗·马穆克拉什维利(Sandro Mamukelashvili)的名字来消遣自己，直到我发对为止。”

他确实做到了。

更重要的是，第二天早上我们醒来时天空晴朗，地平线上没有任何烟雾。虽然洛杉矶还没有完全摆脱困境，因为它已经好几个月没下雨了，但我们可能已经度过了这场灾难。让我们把这些衬衫送到第一响应者手中。接下来就是重建。

两个月后，洛杉矶的重建才刚刚开始。但昨晚参加比赛的两支球队看起来与一月份的球队截然不同。对于马刺来说， 维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama) 本赛季报销，特雷·琼斯(Tre Jones)和扎克·科林斯(Zach Collins)被交易走，查尔斯·巴锡(Charles Bassey)也加入了维克托的伤病名单。他们都在一月份的比赛中为马刺效力——尤其是维克托，他在比赛中正负值高达+26。并非巧合的是，马刺的胜负差为24分。当然，自一月份以来，马刺还获得了达龙·福克斯(De’Aaron Fox)，但他现在也赛季报销了，所以我们错过了昨晚看他比赛的机会。

在某些方面，湖人的变化甚至更加剧烈。他们一月份的两位首发，安东尼·戴维斯(Anthony Davis)和马克思·克里斯蒂(Max Christie)被交易，而另外两位首发，勒布朗·詹姆斯(LeBron James)和八村塁(Rui Hachimura)因伤缺席了昨晚的比赛。因此，湖人昨晚只有一位首发也是一月份的首发。剧透一下，那位首发，奥斯汀·里夫斯(Austin Reaves)，以30分、7个篮板和6次助攻领先所有得分手。

但湖人昨晚最大的新闻，以及自与独行侠交易以来的几乎每个晚上最大的新闻，就是卢卡·东契奇(Luka Doncic)。他昨晚再次接近三双，并在他上场的任何时候都统治了比赛。好吧，除了进攻时精疲力竭的东契奇站在球场边线，双手扶膝，试图喘口气的时候。除此之外，他都在做东契奇的事情：控制球，并且经常以完美的传球结束，要么传给扣篮者，要么传给三分射手。《The Athletic》的约万·布哈(Jovan Buha) 记录了东契奇是如何改变湖人的：

东契奇场均得到31.0分、9.4个篮板和9.6次助攻，投篮命中率为40.8/39.5/79.7。东契奇并没有按照他想要的方式投篮，因为他正在与几个下半身伤病作斗争，但他继续走上罚球线，并作为进攻的驱动力填满了数据表。

他的到来改变了洛杉矶进攻的几何结构。湖人已经实现了雷迪克季前赛的愿景，成为一支高三分球出手量的球队，这是现代时代的主要进攻原则之一。

自2月10日东契奇首次亮相以来，湖人每100次进攻尝试42.3次三分球出手，这是NBA同期第二高的数字。在此之前，湖人每100次进攻尝试34.3次三分球出手，排名联盟第26位。根据Cleaning The Glass的数据，在东契奇上场时，湖人的三分球频率增加了6%，这一比例在联盟中排名第94位。

昨晚在湖人又一次空位三分命中后，我转过身对我的同伴说，“教练该叫暂停，告诉马刺不要再让湖人投空位三分了，” 随后米奇·约翰逊(Mitch Johnson)叫了个暂停，告诉马刺不要再让湖人投空位三分了。

在湖人的48次三分球尝试中，有34次被归类为空位。在比赛中，感觉更多。湖人最终比马刺多进了4个三分球，外加6个罚球，在这场比赛中，马刺从来没有让人觉得他们会赢。这肯定让这两位文班亚马的球迷在离开球馆时感到失望：

其他想法

  • 在一月份的比赛中， 斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle) 表现出色。与维克托一起，他是获胜的关键。昨晚，他表现不佳，即使他以23分领先全队。我的朋友和我一致认为，所有没有观看昨晚比赛的人都会看到卡斯尔的统计数据，并认为这是他在年度最佳新秀的征程中又一个积极的步骤。我们这些看过对阵湖人两场比赛的人都知道，只有第一场比赛对这位年轻人来说才是一场真正的好比赛。
  • 湖人的年轻人布朗尼·詹姆斯(Bronny James)的才华远不如卡斯尔，但湖人球迷真的很支持他。当湖人在第四节早些时候取得领先优势时，球馆里响起了“我们想要布朗尼”的欢呼声。J.J. 雷迪克(J.J. Reddick)终于在最后两分钟让布朗尼上场，全场沸腾了。当布朗尼在湖人替补席前投进一个三分球时，现场更加疯狂。一些喜剧编剧在场馆里开始了“MVP”的欢呼声。帕布罗大声质疑布朗尼是否喜欢被像杜克大学板凳末端，在卡梅隆球馆的比赛末段被对待一样。好问题。
  • 天啊，马刺需要一个大个子。在关键时刻，他们基本上只使用了后卫和侧翼。有时候，凯尔登·约翰逊(Keldon Johnson)是场上唯一一个勉强算得上是力量前锋的马刺球员。
  • 尽管马刺缺乏身高，但湖人队没有人试图低位单打。在第四节，一次换防让克里斯·保罗(Chris Paul)对位湖人中锋杰克逊·海耶斯(Jaxon Hayes)，但湖人甚至没有向内线看。相反，奥斯汀·里夫斯认为最好的对位是里夫斯对阵马刺中锋比斯马克·比永博(Bismack Biyombo)。他是对的。“过去”，目标是让一个大个子对位一个小个子，把球传到内线，让大个子压倒小个子。整个联盟似乎已经决定，现在更好的策略是迫使大个子去防守小个子，并用速度超过大个子冲向篮筐——或者拉出来投一个让大个子后退的三分球。游戏中发生了巨大的变化。
  • 另一个“过去”的评论。当马刺表现出色的时候，或者今年早些时候当维克托上场的时候，我在湖人比赛中看到了很多马刺的装备。昨晚，情况并非如此。一件吉诺比利(Ginobili)的球衣，上面照片中的两件文班亚马球衣，一位来自北卡罗来纳州的女篮球运动员，她是蒂姆·邓肯(Tim Duncan)的粉丝，还有一个穿着经典罗宾逊(Robinson)50号球衣的家伙。哦，还有我穿着我的马刺嘉年华四分之一拉链衫，很有型。这场比赛并不完全有趣，但能到现场观看我的球队和一些珍贵的马刺球迷仍然是件好事。

Attending the re-scheduled Spurs — Lakers game

Watching two very different teams than the ones who would have played had this game happened in January.

My, things really changed since January. I had tickets to both of the back-to-back Spurs games in Los Angeles scheduled for early January. The wildfires led to the cancellation of the first of those games, as I recounted here. That post ended with this:

In an effort to clear my mind a bit, this morning I rode my bike to the outdoor court near my house to get some shooting in. The court was covered in ash.

Things here had improved enough that the teams were able to play the second game of the miniseries two days later, and I was able to see the Spurs defeat the Lakers 126-102 win. With the score tied at the end of three quarters, the Spurs outscored the Lakers 37-13 in the fourth quarter. Man, that was fun. My post after that game was much more upbeat, both because of the Spurs win and because we woke up the next morning with no more smoke in the air.

I ended with this quote from super-son Pablo and another quote from Laker fan Dan:

It was a tough three quarters to sit through depending on who my dad was sitting next to. That said, I sat next to him in the fourth, and he seemed pretty happy for some reason. I guess he wanted to sit next to me the whole time. Glad the Spurs won! Also great to see their young guys play well.

Dan, long-time Laker fan, was less pleased, though he did accomplish something:

“The Spurs 4th quarter shellacking of the Lakers was so bad, I had to amuse myself with pronouncing (Sandro) Mamukelashvili’s name until I got it just right.”

And he did.

More importantly, we woke up the next morning with clear skies, and no smoke anywhere on the horizon. While Los Angeles is not completely out of the woods yet, as it still hasn’t rained in many months, we just might be past this catastrophe. Let’s get those shirts to the first responders. Next comes the rebuilding.

Two months later, the rebuilding of Los Angeles has only just begun. But the two teams who played last night sure looked different than the teams who played in January. For the Spurs, Victor Wembanyama is out for the season, Tre Jones and Zach Collins were traded away, and Charles Bassey has joined Victor on the DL. All of them played for the Spurs in that January game — especially Victor, who had a plus-26 for the game. Not coincidentally, the Spurs’ margin of victory was 24. Of course, since January the Spurs also acquired De’Aaron Fox, who is also now out for the season, so we missed seeing him play last night.

In some ways, the Lakers had even more drastic changes. Two of their starters from January, Anthony Davis and Max Christie, were traded, while two other starters, LeBron James and Rui Hachimura, missed last night’s game because of injury. As a result, the Lakers last night had only one starter who also started in January. As a spoiler alert, that one starter, Austin Reaves, led all scorers with 30 points, 7 boards and 6 assists.

But the Lakers big story last night, and virtually every night since the trade with the Mavs, is Luka Doncic. He flirted with yet another triple double last night and dominated the game whenever he was on the floor. Well, except for the times on offense when an exhausted Doncic stood on the sideline opposite the ball, hands on his knees, trying to catch his breath. Other than that, he was doing Doncic stuff: controlling the ball and often ending with a perfect pass to either a dunker or three-point shooter. Jovan Buha at The Athletic documents how Doncic has changed the Lakers:

Dončić is averaging 31.0 points, 9.4 rebounds and 9.6 assists on 40.8/39.5/79.7 shooting splits. Doncic isn’t shooting the way he wants to as he battles several lower-body injuries, but he has continued to get to the free-throw line and fill up the stat sheet as the driving force of the offense.

His arrival has changed the geometry of LA’s offense. The Lakers have actualized Redick’s preseason vision of becoming a high 3-point volume team, one of the primary offensive principles in the modern era.

The Lakers are attempting 42.3 3-point attempts per 100 possessions since Dončić made his debut on Feb. 10, the second-highest mark in the NBA over that stretch. Before that date, the Lakers averaged 34.3 3-point attempts per 100 possessions, which ranked 26th in the league. With Dončić on the floor, the Lakers’ 3-point frequency increases by 6 percent, a mark that ranks in the 94th percentile league-wide, according to Cleaning The Glass.

Last night after yet another wide-open three by the Lakers, I turned to my companions and said, “Time for the coach to call a time out to tell the Spurs to stop allowing wide-open threes,” followed by Mitch Johnson calling a time-out to tell the Spurs to stop allowing wide-open threes.

Of the Lakers 48 three-point attempts, 34 were classified as wide-open. At the game, it felt like more. The Lakers ended with four more made threes than the Spurs, along with six more made free throws in a game that it never felt like the Spurs were going to win. Which surely disappointed these two Wembanyama fans as they left the arena:

Other thoughts

  • In the January game, Stephon Castle had a great game. Along with Victor, he was the key to the win. Last night, he did not play well, even though he led the team in scoring with 23. My friends and I decided that everyone who did not watch last night’s game would look at Castle’s stat line and decide that this was another positive step in his Rookie of the Year quest. Those of us saw both of the games against the Lakers know that only the first one was actually a good game for the youngster.
  • The Lakers’ youngster, Bronny James, is not nearly as talented as Castle, but Laker fans really root for him. When the Lakers’ lead got big early in the fourth, a, “We want Bronny” chant rolled through the arena. J.J. Reddick finally put Bronny in for the last two minutes, and the place went wild. It went even wilder when Bronny made a three-pointer from in the front of the Laker bench. Some comedy screen-writers in the building started an “MVP” chant. Pablo wondered aloud whether Bronny likes being treated like the walk-on at the end of the Duke bench near the end of a blow-out in Cameron. Good question.
  • Man, the Spurs could use a big man. Down the stretch, they essentially played with only guards and wings. At times, Keldon Johnson was the only Spur on the floor who is even arguably a power forward.
  • Despite the Spurs’ lack of size, no one on the Lakers ever tried to post up. In the fourth quarter, a switch put Chris Paul on Lakers center Jaxon Hayes, but the Lakers did not even look into the post. Instead, Austin Reaves decided the best match-up was Reaves vs. Spurs center Bismack Biyombo. And he was right. “Back in the day,” the goal was to get a big on a small, dump the ball into the post, and let the big guy overpower the small. The entire league appears to have decided that the better strategy now is to force the big to cover the small, and outquick the big to the rim — or pull up for a thee over a back-pedaling big. A huge change in the game.
  • Another “back in the day” comment. Back when the Spurs were good, or earlier this year when Victor played, I saw a lot of Spurs gear at Lakers games. Last night, not so much. One Ginobili jersey, the two Wembanyama jerseys pictured above, a woman hooper from North Carolina who grew up a Tim Duncan fan, and a guy in a classic Robinson #50. Oh, and me in my Spurs fiesta quarter-zip, styling it. The game wasn’t exactly fun, but it was still good to be there to see my team and a precious few of my fellow Spurs fans.
