自从德里克·怀特(Derrick White)在2022年2月离开马刺队以来，他的人生就一直顺风顺水。
“他的家庭在壮大，他有了自己的啤酒，他还是个总冠军，”马刺队的代理教练米奇·约翰逊(Mitch Johnson)说。“他正春风得意。”
周六，怀特跟随凯尔特人队回到圣安东尼奥，帮助球队以121-111击败马刺队，卫冕NBA冠军取得了九连胜。
这足以让人举起一杯他标志性的（德里克）怀特艾尔啤酒，这款啤酒已经在波士顿风靡一时。
怀特周六的表现并非最佳，只得到13分。然而，凯尔特人队毕竟是凯尔特人队，他得到了很多帮助。
杰森·塔图姆从左脚踝扭伤中复出，得到29分和10个篮板，朱·霍勒迪(Jrue Holiday)也贡献了21分。上场的8名波士顿球员中有7人得分上双。
“显然，我们想赢，”马刺队后卫德文·瓦塞尔(Devin Vassell)说。“这只是表明，即使我们缺少一些关键球员，我们也能参与到每场比赛中。”
替补出场的凯尔登·约翰逊(Keldon Johnson)得到23分，带领马刺队，他们遭遇了三连败。斯蒂芬·卡斯尔继续了他的最佳新秀之旅，得到22分和全队最高的8次助攻。
波士顿从第一节中段开始领先，建立的优势一度高达17分。马刺队在第三节将分差缩小到4分，但未能再进一步。
怀特在2022年2月被交易到波士顿，开启了马刺队持续多年的重建工作，他在凯尔特人队在第四节关门大吉的过程中发挥了作用。
他做出了一系列关键表现——一次进攻篮板，为卢克·科内特(Luke Kornet)的上篮创造机会，一个干脆利落的三分球，以及在瓦塞尔头上的一记急停跳投——帮助马刺队始终无法迫近。
“他值得拥有他所得到的一切，甚至更多，”米奇·约翰逊评价怀特说。“关注他和成为他的球迷是件有趣的事。”
周六过后，马刺队和怀特再次分道扬镳，凯尔特人队很可能向着季后赛的深入和卫冕冠军的目标前进，而马刺队则将连续第六次参加选秀抽签。
以下是周六这场失利的三大看点，这场失利使马刺队的战绩降至31胜42负：
- 赛程安排不利
六天前，马刺队离开多伦多时正处于三连胜中。此后他们遭遇了三连败，尽管打出好球的时间比坏球的时间更多。
赛程安排没有起到帮助。
周六的比赛是马刺队连续第二场输给一支自认为是东部NBA总冠军竞争者的球队。凯尔特人队配得上这样的头衔，赢得了去年的总冠军。
就像周四在克利夫兰一样，马刺队至少让波士顿为了这场胜利而努力拼搏。
精神上的胜利在积分榜上毫无意义，但马刺队希望他们能从这段艰难的赛程中获得一些收获。
“我觉得我们打得并不差，尤其是在半场阵地战中，”卡斯尔说。“对阵像他们这样的球队，你必须真正强调那些小细节，才能赢得比赛。”
对马刺队来说，周六的比赛是在连续七场对阵胜率超过50%的球队中的第三场。在马刺队剩下的九场比赛中，只有两场是对阵胜率低于50%的对手——4月6日在波特兰的比赛和4月13日在主场对阵多伦多的赛季收官战。
他们原本安排的休息日也被取消了，因为NBA不得不重新安排奥兰多到圣安东尼奥的比赛，改到周二进行，以便安排马刺队在洛杉矶湖人队的补赛，这场比赛最初因1月份洛杉矶的野火而推迟。
相反，周六输给凯尔特人队的比赛拉开了马刺队五天四赛的序幕。
- 身高在NBA中仍然重要
凯尔特人队上赛季投出了比联盟中任何球队都多的三分球，从而一路杀向NBA总冠军。
他们周六又开始了，三分球51投17中。
然而，最终扼杀马刺队的是波士顿的身高优势。
凯尔特人队主教练乔·马祖拉(Joe Mazzulla)在第四节使用了双塔阵容，同时派上了7英尺高的波尔津吉斯和科内特。
“在比赛的那个阶段，我们正在一点点地追回来，”卡斯尔说。“让他们远离篮板是比赛的重要组成部分。所以我认为他们把他们两个都派上场是一个很好的教练调整。”
约翰逊没有更多可用的手段来对抗波士顿的身高优势。
马刺队阵容中最高的球员是6英尺9英寸的桑德罗·马穆克拉什维利(Sandro Mamukelashvili)。他占据了大部分的替补中锋时间，站在6英尺8英寸的杰里米·索汉身后。
毫不奇怪，波士顿在篮板球上以54-35占据优势。凯尔特人队抢到15个进攻篮板，并将其转化为二次进攻得分上26-3的优势。
科内特大显身手，得到15分并抢下职业生涯最高的16个篮板。
这一切都让马刺队的逆转努力变得不可能。波士顿在第四节抢到5个进攻篮板，这意味着多了5次进攻机会。凯尔特人队在本节比赛中得到6分二次进攻得分。
自从7英尺3英寸的维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)在2月份赛季报销以来，这个问题每天都在发生。周日，当金州勇士队派6英尺6英寸的德雷蒙德·格林(Draymond Green)担任中锋时，这个问题可能会有所缓解。
- 克里斯·保罗重现昔日风采
周六上半场结束时，克里斯·保罗(Chris Paul)的得分为零。进入第四节时，他只有两分。
然后，这位39岁的控球后卫瞬间回到了过去。
保罗在第四节的3分12秒内得到10分，将马刺队的分差缩小到7分。
“这样做很有趣，”保罗说。“以前经常发生。”

周六的爆发提醒人们，即使在他NBA生涯的第20个赛季，保罗仍然有能力偶尔接管比赛。
他命中了一记油漆区内的急停跳投，投中了两个三分球——其中包括一个是在波士顿的萨姆·豪瑟几乎贴在他球衣上的情况下命中的——并且在底线附近还有一次巧妙的转身跳投。
“那是比赛的节奏，”保罗说。“你知道，只是试图弄清楚我什么时候可以为我们的球队挑选我的位置。”

3 takeaways as Stephon Castle-led Spurs fall short against Celtics

Derrick White has led a charmed life since leaving the Spurs in February of 2022.
“His family is growing, he’s got his own beer, he’s a champion,” Spurs acting coach Mitch Johnson said. “He’s riding high.”
Back in town with Boston on Saturday, White helped the Celtics to a 121-111 victory that gave the defending NBA champs their ninth consecutive victory.
It was enough to raise a glass of his signature (Derrick) White ale that has taken Beantown by storm.
White didn’t have his best game Saturday, scoring 13 points. The Celtics being the Celtics, however, he had plenty of help.
Jayson Tatum returned from a left ankle sprain to tally 29 points with 10 rebounds, while Jrue Holiday added 21 points. Seven of the eight Boston players who played reached double figures.
“Obviously we want to win,” Spurs guard Devin Vassell said. “It just goes to show that even though we’re missing some of our key players, we’re in every game.”
Keldon Johnson scored 23 points off the bench to lead the Spurs, who lost their third in a row. Stephon Castle continued his Rookie of the Year run with 22 points and a team-best eight assists.
Boston led from the middle of the first quarter on, building an advantage that got as high as 17 points. The Spurs clawed to within four in the third quarter, but could climb no closer.
White, whose trade to Boston in February 2022 ignited the Spurs’ years-long rebuilding effort, had a hand in the Celtics shutting the door in the fourth.
He made a series of big plays — an offensive board to set up a Luke Kornet layup, a swished 3-pointer, a pull-up jumper over Vassell — to help keep the Spurs at bay.
“He deserves everything he’s gotten and more,” Mitch Johnson said of White. “It’s fun to follow him and be a fan of his.”
After Saturday, the Spurs and White parted ways again, with the Celtics likely headed for a deep playoff run and title defense, and the Spurs headed to a sixth consecutive trip to the draft lottery.
Here are three takeaways from Saturday’s defeat, which dropped the Spurs to 31-42:
1. The schedule is doing no favors
Six days ago, the Spurs left Toronto on a three-game winning streak. They’ve since lost three in a row, despite playing more minutes of good basketball than bad.
The schedule isn’t helping.
Saturday marked the Spurs’ second consecutive loss against a team that fancies itself an NBA title contender in the East. The Celtics come about that designation honestly, winning last year’s title.
As it was in Cleveland on Thursday, the Spurs at least made Boston work for the W.
Moral victories do not count in the standings, but the Spurs are hopeful they can gain something from this tough stretch of the schedule.
“I feel like we didn’t play bad, especially in the half court,” Castle said. “Against a team like that, you have to really emphasize the little things in order to win.”
For the Spurs, Saturday’s game was the third in a stretch of seven in a row against teams with winning records. Of the Spurs’ remaining nine games, only two are against opponents under .500 — at Portland on April 6 and the season-finale at home against Toronto on April 13.
They also had an originally scheduled day of rest taken away when the NBA had to reschedule Orlando’s trip to San Antonio to Tuesday to accommodate the Spurs’ makeup date at the Los Angeles Lakers initially postponed by the L.A. wildfires in January.
Instead, Saturday’s loss to the Celtics kicked off a spate of four games in five nights for the Spurs.
2. Size still matters in the NBA
The Celtics shot their way to last season’s NBA crown by getting up more 3-pointers than any team in the league.
They were back at it Saturday, hitting 17 of 51 from beyond the arc.
It was Boston’s size, however, that ultimately doomed the Spurs.
Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla went with a double-big lineup in the fourth quarter, using 7-footers Porzingis and Kornet together.
“At that point in the game, we were inching back into it,” Castle said. “Getting them off the glass was a big part of the game. So I feel like it was just a good coaching adjustment by them to put them both in.”
Johnson had fewer levers to pull to counter Boston’s size.
The tallest player on the Spurs’ roster is the 6-9 Sandro Mamukelashvili. He soaked up most of the backup center minutes behind the 6-8 Jeremy Sochan.
Not surprisingly, Boston dominated the glass with a 54-35 edge. The Celtics grabbed 15 offensive rebounds, and parlayed that into a 26-3 edge in second-chance points.
Kornet feasted, scoring 15 points and seizing a career-best 16 rebounds.
It all made the Spurs’ comeback bid untenable. Boston grabbed five offensive rebounds in the fourth quarter, meaning five extra possessions. The Celtics’ had six second-chance points in the frame.
This has been a nightly issue since the 7-foot-3 Victor Wembanyama was lost for the season in February. It could be less of a problem Sunday, when a Golden State team that starts the 6-6 Draymond Green at center comes to town.
3. CP3 had a throwback moment
By halftime Saturday, Chris Paul had logged zero points. He entered the fourth quarter with only two.
Then the 39-year-old point guard momentarily went back in time.
Paul scored 10 points in a span of 3:12 of the fourth quarter, drawing the Spurs as close as seven points.
“It was fun to do that,” Paul said. “It used to happen a lot more often.”
BIG TIME BUCKETS
— San Antonio Spurs (@ spurs) March 30, 2025
Saturday’s spurt served as a reminder that, even in his 20th NBA season, Paul still has the ability to occasionally take over a game.
He threw in a pull-up jumper in the paint, knocked down a pair of 3-pointers — including one with Boston’s Sam Hauser practically in his jersey — and had another tricky turnaround on the baseline.
“That was flow of the game,” Paul said. “You know, just trying to figure out when I can pick my spots for our team.”
