圣安东尼奥的哈里森·巴恩斯(Harrison Barnes)(24分)和斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle)(19分)在客场失利中表现出色。
在明天晚上与休斯顿火箭的关键比赛(对季后赛席位影响重大)之前,洛杉矶快船队凭借第三节的出色表现和二次进攻的巨大优势,在周二晚上取得了过去 11 场对阵圣安东尼奥马刺的比赛中的第 10 场胜利。尽管上半场投篮命中率高达 54%,但圣安东尼奥只建立了 5 分的领先优势,并在中场休息前拱手让出。在前 2 节多的时间里,马刺一直紧追快船,表现得比那些期待进入季后赛的球队更加认真,直到快船在第三节打出 37-26 的高潮,使得客队很难实现逆转。
尽管洛杉矶队在开场几分钟内 6 投 5 中,但圣安东尼奥避免了可怕的慢热“病毒”,并在进攻端保持了令人鼓舞的平衡,从而顶住了这支有望进入季后赛的球队。与一月份的上一场比赛不同,伊维察·祖巴茨(Ivica Zubac)没有被允许在油漆区内横冲直撞(至少在第一节是这样),圣安东尼奥在第一节中段打出 9-0 的攻击波,让他们悄悄地取得了领先。然而,快船迅速恢复并重新取得优势——布雷克·卫斯理(Blake Wesley)的精彩上篮和扣篮帮助圣安东尼奥在第一节结束时将分差缩小到两分。
由于快船不断威胁要拉开与圣安东尼奥的差距,马刺在第二节的大部分时间里都将分差保持在 1-2 个球的范围内,甚至凭借顽强的防守和及时的外线投篮,一度取得了领先。经验丰富的老将尼古拉斯·巴图姆(Nicolas Batum)(快船)和哈里森·巴恩斯(Harrison Barnes)(马刺)连续命中三分。为了拼命保护内线免受祖巴茨的威胁,俾斯麦·比永博(Bismack Biyombo)在半场结束前领到了他的第四次犯规,而快船的解说员则无休止地念错桑德罗·马穆克拉什维利(Sandro Mamukelashvili)的名字。在凯尔登·约翰逊(Keldon Johnson)干扰诺曼·鲍威尔(Norman Powell)投篮时,裁判吹罚了一个不幸的犯规,快船的后卫获得了罚球机会,马刺以 52-54 落后进入半场。
洛杉矶队发起了第一次真正的攻势,在第三节中,他们在开局阶段再次投篮手感火热(8 投 8 中),德里克·琼斯(Derrick Jones, Jr.)将他在篮筐附近的所有机会都转化为得分,从而将马刺击垮。祖巴茨也在这一波攻势中拿下了两双。巴恩斯在侧翼的三分球是圣安东尼奥在本节前五分钟的唯一得分。卡斯尔在一次扣篮尝试中几乎将祖巴茨的手臂扣进篮筐,他的罚球帮助马刺将分差缩小到 9 分。卡斯尔鼓舞人心的表现帮助抵挡了快船的又一次攻势,但博格丹·博格达诺维奇(Bogdan Bogdanovic)的 5 分连得让他的球队带着 13 分的优势进入第四节。
朱利安·尚帕尼(Julian Champagnie)在第四节开始时有几次机会命中一些需要的三分球,但两次尝试都远远不够。几乎博格达诺维奇的所有投篮尝试——无论进还是不进——都令人印象深刻地碰到了篮筐的各个部分。德文·瓦塞尔(Devin Vassell)今晚的最后一个运动战进球来自于令人沮丧的 3 投 8 中,而他的一些队友的投篮尝试次数更多。洛杉矶在第四节的大部分时间里都保持着 8-12 分的领先优势,然后轻松地取得了胜利。乔丹·麦克劳克林(Jordan McLaughlin)命中了两个三分球,并在结果已经确定后封盖了博格达诺维奇的投篮。
比赛记录
- 尽管失利,圣安东尼奥的努力值得称赞。他们很容易在上半场一开始就向一支有更多追求的球队缴械投降,但好人们通过整场比赛的竞争展现出了十足的韧性。这真的是一次团队的努力,马刺除了……之外,从每个人那里都得到了可靠的贡献
- 德文·瓦塞尔。如前所述,这位 24 岁的侧翼球员总共只尝试了 8 次投篮,只命中了 3 次,包括三分球 5 投 1 中。考虑到球队其他人的表现,看到他如此无精打采的表现令人奇怪,他绝对是周二晚上马刺队中最令人失望的球员。
本场最佳
斯蒂芬的这个“抛投”是本赛季最令人印象深刻的即兴投篮之一,尤其是在他在空中完成的情况下。

Spurs can’t overcome Clippers’ hot third quarter in 117-122 loss
San Antonio’s Harrison Barnes (24 points) and Stephon Castle (19 points) competed capably in the road loss to LA.
With an enormous tilt carrying crucial playoff implications against the Houston Rockets tomorrow night, the Los Angeles Clippers claimed the tenth of their last 11 matchups against the San Antonio Spurs Tuesday night with a dominant third-quarter showing and a sizable advantage in second-chance opportunities. Despite shooting a solid 54% in the first half, San Antonio could only build a five-point lead before giving that up right before the break. The Spurs stayed on LA’s heels throughout the first 2+ quarters — treating the game far more seriously than the expectant playoff squad seemed to prepare themselves for — until the Clippers’ 37-26 third period made a comeback difficult for the visitors.
Despite Los Angeles starting 5-for-6 in the opening minutes, San Antonio averted the dreaded slow start ‘virus’ and stood their ground against the playoff hopefuls behind encouraging balance on the offensive end. Unlike their previous contest in January, Ivica Zubac was not permitted to run roughshod in the paint (well, at least for the opening frame), and San Antonio’s’ 9-0 run spanning the middle part of the stanza allowed them to sneak into the lead. However, the Clippers recovered quickly to retake the advantage — with Blake Wesley’s highlight-worthy drive and dunk pulling San Antonio within two at the end of the first.
With the Clippers repeatedly threatening to create some distance between them and San Antonio, the Spurs kept it a 1-2 possession game for much of the second quarter — even claiming a hold of the lead for several moments behind dogged defense and timely outside shooting. Grizzled veterans Nicolas Batum (LAC) and particularly Harrison Barnes (SAS) hit a flurry of threes between them. Desperately trying to protect the lane from the menacing presence of Zubac, Bismack Biyombo picked up his fourth foul late in the first half, and the Clippers’ announcers mispronounced Sandro Mamukelashvili’s name endlessly. An unfortunate whistle on Keldon Johnson, while contesting Norman Powell’s shot, netted the Clippers’ guard freebies, and the Spurs went into the half down 52-54.
Los Angeles made its first serious push, aided by another hot shooting start (8-8) in the third quarter with Derrick Jones, Jr. converting all of his opportunities at or near the rim to pound the Spurs into submission. Zubac ascended into double-double territory during the run. Barnes’ wing threes were the sole points San Antonio put up over the first five minutes of the frame. Castle nearly stuffed Zubac’s arm into the rim on a dunk attempt and his free throws drew the Spurs within nine. Castle’s inspired play helped fend off another Clippers run, but Bogdan Bogdanovic’s five-point burst put his team up 13 heading into the fourth.
Julian Champagnie had a couple of chances to hit some needed threes to start the fourth, but both attempts fell woefully short. Nearly all of Bogdanovic’s shot attempts — in or out — impressively seemed to touch all parts of the rim. Devin Vassell’s final field goal tonight came on a dispiriting 3-for-8 shooting effort where a handful of his teammates put up more shot attempts Los Angeles kept between an 8-12 point cushion throughout most of the fourth before coasting to victory. Jordan McLaughlin hit two threes and blocked a Bogdanovic shot after the result was decided.
Game notes
- Despite the loss, San Antonio’s effort was commendable. It would’ve been easy for them to fold at the start of both halves to a team that has a lot more to play for, but the good guys showed tons of grit by competing the entire game. It was truly a team effort, and the Spurs got solid contributions from everyone except…
- Devin Vassell. As previously mentioned, the 24-year-old wing only attempted 8 total shots and made just 3, including going 1-5 from deep. It was strange to see such a lethargic performance from him considering how the rest of the team performed, and he was definitely the most disappointing Spurs player on Tuesday night.
Play of the game
This “floater” from Steph is one of the more impressive improvised shots from the season, especially given that he executed it while in the air.
