欢迎来到“一周回顾”栏目：这是一个在每周一回顾 *圣安东尼奥马刺队 *过去一周表现、展望未来一周赛程等内容的专题。敬请欣赏！
第七周 ：饱受旅途劳顿的马刺队又赢下了几场关键的胜利——一场是在主场凭借哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes) 马刺生涯的最佳表现击败灰熊队，另一场则是在次日做客奥兰多，依靠卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet) 在终场蜂鸣器响起时封盖弗朗茨·瓦格纳 (Franz Wagner) 的投篮取胜——之后，疲惫的赛程终于让他们付出了代价。在克利夫兰，一场半场时还势均力敌的比赛，在灾难性的第三节后演变成了一场惨败。
第八周：3胜0负 (18胜7负, 西部第五)
135-132 客场战胜新奥尔良鹈鹕队
比赛回顾 ：在第二节一度领先高达25分之后，马刺似乎将轻松战胜当时联盟战绩最差的球队（此后蔡恩·威廉森 (Zion Williamson) 复出，他们已取得两连胜），但马刺连续第二场比赛遭遇了第三节崩盘的毛病。异军突起的鹈鹕队在德里克·奎恩 (Derik Queen) 打出生涯之夜的带领下，单节以45-23的比分反超。幸运的是，在这场堪称新秀对决的比赛中，马刺队及时稳住阵脚，凭借迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 年轻职业生涯中的最佳表现，最终避免了被爆冷翻盘。
132-119 客场战胜洛杉矶湖人队\ *
* NBA杯四分之一决赛
比赛回顾 ：面对一支全员健康的湖人队——与上次交手不同，这次他们阵中还有勒布朗·詹姆斯 (LeBron James) 和奥斯汀·里夫斯 (Austin Reeves)，而马刺队这边维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 仍然缺阵——这场NBA杯四分之一决赛看起来对马刺而言是一场硬仗。但事实证明，马刺队完全顶住了挑战，他们凭借火热的三分球开局，整晚都在节奏上压倒了速度偏慢的湖人队，成功克服了卢卡·东契奇 (Luka Dončić) 典型的35分表现以及马库斯·斯玛特 (Marcus Smart) 从替补席上贡献的26分，最终赢得了比赛，挺进在拉斯维加斯举行的半决赛。
111-109 战胜俄克拉荷马城雷霆队\ *
* NBA杯半决赛，于拉斯维加斯举行
比赛回顾: 维克托·文班亚马在缺席12场比赛后王者归来，尽管替补出场且有上场时间限制，但他凭一己之力让马刺紧咬比分——上半场他出战的7分钟里，球队在场正负值为+20（而他不在场时，球队为-23）。随后，他在关键时刻再次挺身而出。最终，马刺队凭借四人得分上20的表现，爆冷击败卫冕冠军，终结了他们追平纪录的赛季开局，成功杀入NBA杯决赛。
实力榜排名
约翰·舒曼 (John Schuhmann), NBA.com — 第6位 (上周: 第9位)
进攻效率: 118.0 (第7) 防守效率: 113.8 (第14) 净效率: +4.2 (第8) 比赛节奏: 100.9 (第16)
在维克托·文班亚马缺阵期间，马刺取得了9胜3负的战绩，但他们能够闯入阿联酋航空NBA杯决赛，正是因为文班亚马在周六披挂上阵，并帮助球队终结了雷霆队的16连胜。
三大看点
周六的胜利是马刺本赛季进攻表现最差的一场（106个回合得到111分），但同时也是雷霆队进攻最差的一场（107个回合得到109分）。在文班亚马在场的21分钟里，俄克拉荷马城在48个进攻回合中仅得到40分（禁区内13投4中）。至今，文班亚马出战的13场比赛中，马刺每百回合失分为110.7分，而在他登场的437分钟里，这一数据降至每百回合仅104.3分。
湖人队的罚球数差领先全联盟，但马刺在周三让他们打出了赛季最差的罚球数差（17-29）。从上赛季至今，圣安东尼奥的罚球率增幅位列联盟第三，其中文班亚马（每百次出手罚球数从22.1次增至41.4次）和斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle)（每百次出手从34.8次增至52.0次）的增幅，在过去两个赛季出手至少200次的120名球员中，分别高居第三和第七位。
上周的三场比赛，是马刺首次让斯蒂芬·卡斯尔、德阿隆·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 和迪伦·哈珀同时进入激活名单。虽然他们三人还未曾同时在场，但每个人都有过高光时刻。哈珀（顶替卡斯尔在场）在新奥尔良命中了制胜一球；卡斯尔在洛杉矶高效得到30分（同时还负责防守卢卡·东契奇）；而福克斯则在对阵雷霆时，包办了上半场结束前那波关键的13-0攻击波的头6分。
未来展望： NBA杯决赛的对手将拥有比雷霆更强大的进攻火力，并且尼克斯队比俄克拉荷马城更像是一支跳投大队。但文班亚马在禁区的存在应该能帮助马刺更好地防守三分线，其中底角三分的防守在周二将尤为重要。尼克斯队场均命中5记底角三分，这在三分线存在的47年历史中将是所有球队的最高纪录。去年圣诞大战（也是文班亚马上次对阵纽约的比赛）战胜马刺的比赛中，他们在底角区域15投8中。
劳·穆雷 (Law Murray), The Athletic — 第6位 (上周: 第9位)
交易流言： 大前锋 杰里米·索汉 (Jeremy Sochan)
维克托·文班亚马已经回归，考虑到对手实力和比赛重要性，周六晚上的比赛可以说是他NBA生涯至今最具影响力的一场。马刺仍然需要弄清楚如何平衡他们的爆炸性后场三人组——德阿隆·福克斯、斯蒂芬·卡斯尔和迪伦·哈珀——的上场时间和球权分配，同时在文班亚马回归后也不能忽视德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell)、哈里森·巴恩斯、凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson) 和朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie)。有一个球员已经完全被遗忘了，那就是索汉，他甚至在文班亚马回归之前就已经跌出了轮换阵容。索汉将在2026年成为受限制自由球员，对于圣安东尼奥来说，将他作为交易筹码的一部分去换回一名更好的射手，或许能发挥出更大的作用。
布雷特·西格尔 (Brett Siegel), Clutch Points — 第4位 (上周: 第8位)
周二战胜尼克斯并夺得今年的NBA杯冠军，正是马刺为他们战胜俄克拉荷马城的这场胜利正名所需要做到的。信不信由你，这场对阵雷霆的胜利标志着马刺本赛季首次全员健康，这终于让他们有机会开始证明自己能成为季后赛中怎样的威胁。
在没有维克托·文班亚马的情况下，圣安东尼奥在11场比赛中赢下了9场，并且自11月14日以来，他们的场均得分排名联盟第五。马刺队目前势头正盛，而且当文班在场时，他们是一支顶级的防守强队。虽然赛季尚早，但这支球队已经证明了他们有能力击败西部最顶尖的对手。
未来赛程： 周二 12/16 vs. 纽约尼克斯队*; 周四 12/18 vs. 华盛顿奇才队; 周五 12/19 at 亚特兰大老鹰队; 周日 12/21 at 华盛顿奇才队
* NBA杯决赛 — 不计入常规赛战绩
战绩预测：4胜0负 — （或者，如果你只考虑那些“计入战绩”的比赛，那就是正式的3胜0负。）为什么不呢？马刺队本赛季首次全员健康，并且刚刚给了卫冕冠军一个下马威。我相信凯尔登·约翰逊的羊驼会给予他们足够的动力，在明天赢得在拉斯维加斯举行的NBA杯。然后，他们本周余下的赛程相对轻松，尽管仍然需要在比赛间辗转奔波。（一个有趣的事实是，除了在拉斯维加斯的这两场比赛，自11月18日和20日的主场比赛以来，他们就再也没有在同一个地方连续打过比赛，并且这种情况要到圣诞节后的一个三连主场才会改变。本赛季他们的旅行总里程数本就预计是联盟第三多的球队，那么这次从新奥尔良到洛杉矶，再到拉斯维加斯和圣安东尼奥的旅程又会让这个数字增加多少呢？）

Week in Review: Fully healthy Spurs shock the league, make NBA Cup Finals
Welcome to the Week in Review: a Monday feature that looks back at the week that was for theSan Antonio Spurs, takes a look at the week ahead, and more. Enjoy!
Week 7: The travel-weary Spurs got a couple more clutch wins — one at home against the Grizzlies on the back of Harrison Barnes’ best game as a Spur, the other the next night in Orlando thanks to Luke Kornet blocking Franz Vagner at the buzzer — before the schedule finally caught up with them in Cleveland, where a good game at halftime turned into a blowout loss during a disastrous third quarter.
Week 8: 3-0 (18-7, 5th in West)
135-132 win at New Orleans Pelicans
Recap: After leading by as much as 25 in the second quarter, it looked like the Spurs would cruise to victory against the then-worst team in the league (they have since gotten Zion Williamson back and won two straight), but for the second game in a row, the turd quarter bug bit, and the Spurs were outscored 45-23 by the upstart Pelicans and Derik Queen having a career night. Fortunately, in what became the battle of the rookies, the Spurs pulled it back together just in time to prevent the upset while riding Dylan Harper’s best game of his young career.
132-119 win at Los Angeles Lakers*
* NBA Cup Quarterfinals
Recap: Facing a fully healthy Lakers squad that unlike last time, also had LeBron James and Austin Reeves while the Spurs were still missing Victor Wembanyama, this looked like a tough matchup for the NBA Cup Quarterfinals. But, as it turned out, the Spurs were more than up to the challenge, using a red-hot start from three and outpacing the slower Lakers all night to overcome a typical 35-point performance from Luka Doncic and 26-point outing from Marcus Smart off the bench, and the win sent the Spurs to the semifinals in Las Vegas
111-109 win vs. Oklahoma City Thunder*
* NBA Cup Semifinals, at Las Vegas
Recap: Victor Wembanyama made his triumphant return from a 12-game absence, and despite coming off the bench and on a minutes restriction, he single-handedly kept the Spurs in the game by being +20 in his 7 minutes on the court in the first half (they were -23 without him). He then came up big again the clutch, and with four players scoring 20 or more points, the Spurs upset the defending champions, putting an end to their record-tying start to the season and making the NBA Cup Finals.
Power Rankings
John Schuhmann, NBA.com — 6 (last week: 9)
OffRtg: 118.0 (7) DefRtg: 113.8 (14) NetRtg: +4.2 (8) Pace: 100.9 (16)
The Spurs went 9-3 during Victor Wembanyama’s absence, but they’re in the Emirates NBA Cup final because he was back in uniform on Saturday and helping them put an end to the Thunder’s 16-game winning streak.
Three takeaways
The win on Saturday was the Spurs’ worst offensive game of the season (111 points on 106 possessions), but it was also the Thunder’s worst (109 on 107). Oklahoma City scored just 40 points on 48 possessions (shooting 4-for-13 in the paint) in Wembanyama’s 21 minutes on the floor. The Spurs have now allowed 110.7 per 100 in the 13 games he’s played and just 104.3 per 100 in his 437 minutes on the floor.
The Lakers lead the league in free-throw differential, but the Spurs handed them their worst differential (29-17) of the season on Wednesday. San Antonio has seen the league’s third biggest jump in free throw rate from last season, with Wembanyama (from 22.1 to 41.4 attempts per 100 shots from the field) and Stephon Castle (from 34.8 to 52.0 per 100) having seen the third and seventh biggest jumps among 120 players with at least 200 field goal attempts in each of the last two seasons.
Their three games last week were the first three games in which the Spurs had Castle, De’Aaron Fox and Dylan Harper all in uniform. They haven’t had all three on the floor together, but each player has had their moments. Harper (on the floor instead of Castle) had the game-winning bucket in New Orleans, Castle scored an efficient 30 points (while also guarding Luka Dončić) in L.A., and Fox had the first six points on the critical, 13-0 run to close the first half against the Thunder.
Coming up: The Cup final will come against an even better offense than that of the Thunder, and the Knicks are more of a jump-shooting team than Oklahoma City. But Wembanyama’s presence in the paint should help the Spurs defend the 3-point line better, with the corners being particularly important on Tuesday. The Knicks’ 5 corner 3s per game would be the most for any team in the 47-year history of the 3-point line, and they were 8-for-15 from the corners in their Christmas win over the Spurs (the last game Wembanyama played vs. New York) last year.
Law Murray, The Athletic — 6 (last week: 9)
Trade Winds: PF Jeremy Sochan
Victor Wembanyama has returned, and Saturday night was arguably his most impactful NBA performance considering the opponent and the stakes. The Spurs still have room to figure out how to balance minutes and touches for their explosive guard trio of De’Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper while also not forgetting about Devin Vassell, Harrison Barnes, Keldon Johnson and Julian Champagnie now that Wembanyama is back. A player who has been completely forgotten is Sochan, who was out of the rotation even before Wembanyama returned. Sochan is a 2026 restricted free agent, and he may be of more use to San Antonio as part of a trade package that could return a better shooter.
Brett Siegel, Clutch Points — 4 (last week: 8)
A win over the Knicks on Tuesday and claiming this year’s NBA Cup is exactly what the Spurs need to back up their win over Oklahoma City. Believe it or not, this win over the Thunder marked the first time all season that the Spurs have been fully healthy, which finally gives them a chance to begin proving what type of playoff threat they can be.
Without Victor Wembanyama, San Antonio won nine of their 11 games, and they have ranked fifth in scoring since Nov. 14. The Spurs are rolling right now, and they are an elite defensive team with Wemby on the floor. It is early, but this team has proven that it has what it takes to beat the best of the best in the Western Conference.
Coming up: Tues. 12/16 vs. New York Knicks*; Thurs. 12/18 vs. Washington Wizards; Fri. 12/19 at Atlanta Hawks; Sun. 12/21 at Washington Wizards
* NBA Cup Finals — does NOT count towards the regular season
Prediction: 4-0 — (Or officially 3-0, if you only consider games that “count”.) Why the heck not? The Spurs are fully healthy for the first time all season and just put it to the defending champs. I believe Keldon Johnson’s llama will give them enough motivation to win the Cup in Vegas tomorrow, and then they get a relatively easy schedule the rest of the week, albeit while continuing to travel between games. (Fun fact, outside of these two games in Vegas, they haven’t had consecutive games in the same place since Nov. 18 and 20 at home and won’t again until a three-game homestand after Christmas. They were already set to be the third-most traveled team this season in terms of mileage, so what did adding a trip to Los Angeles from New Orleans, and then to Las Vegas and San Antonio do to that number?)
