欢迎来到“一周回顾”栏目：这是一档周一推出的专题，旨在回顾 *圣安东尼奥马刺队 *过去一周的历程，展望未来一周的赛程，并带来更多内容。敬请欣赏！
第9周: 在季中锦标赛决赛中，马刺队输给尼克斯队（该场比赛不计入常规赛战绩），此后，马刺队在接下来的一周横扫了相对轻松的赛程（两场比赛分别对阵联盟垫底的奇才队和步履蹒跚的亚特兰大老鹰队），排名跃升至西部第二。
第9周战绩：2胜1负 (总战绩23胜8负, 西部第2)
130-110 胜 俄克拉荷马雷霆
战报回顾: 为了证明他们在拉斯维加斯季中锦标赛半决赛中的胜利并非侥幸，这场比赛在前三节打得十分胶着，但马刺在第四节迎来爆发，凭借全队之力，他们取得了本赛季对卫冕冠军的第二场胜利，同时这也是球队自2019年以来首次取得七连胜。
117-102 客场胜 俄克拉荷马雷霆
战报回顾: 或许很多人都以为，雷霆队会在自己的主场寻求复仇，尤其是在圣诞大战这样的舞台上，毕竟他们此前已在中立场和客场接连负于马刺。然而，马刺队却用行动证明，他们或许正是雷霆的克星，他们凭借出色的防守和无情的团队进攻，再次让卫冕冠军显得黯然失色。正如谢伊·吉尔杰斯-亚历山大 (Shai Gilgeous-Alexander) 赛后所说，如果你在不到两周的时间里连续三次输给同一支球队，那只能说明他们比你更强。
114-127 负 犹他爵士
战报回顾: 在激动人心的短系列赛中横扫雷霆之后，马刺队走进了一场彻头彻尾的陷阱比赛。虽然在之前的八连胜期间他们成功避开过几次，但爵士队最终还是在一个状态不佳的夜晚抓住了他们。尽管维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 回到了首发阵容，但马刺队却因德阿隆·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 内收肌酸痛而缺少了他，他的缺阵影响巨大，马刺的进攻在首节过后便陷入冰点，再也未能真正回暖。尽管球队在第四节末段尝试反扑，但最终仍无力回天，八连胜就此终结。
实力榜排名
John Schuhmann, NBA.com — 第1位 (上周: 第5位)
进攻效率: 118.8 (第5) 防守效率: 112.5 (第5) 净效率: +6.2 (第6) 比赛节奏: 100.7 (第18)
马刺队（计入常规赛战绩的）八连胜在上周六画上了句号，当时德阿隆·福克斯缺席了他们与爵士队的比赛。但他们击败雷霆的次数比联盟其他任何球队都多，在过去一段时间里，分别在中立场、主场和客场战胜了这支卫冕冠军。
三大看点
马刺现在是联盟唯一一支攻防两端效率都排名前五的球队。他们在过去16天里的三次交锋中，将雷霆的百回合得分限制在仅107.0分，成功将其从进攻效率榜前五的位置上拉了下来。这其中包括当文班亚马在场的70分钟里，雷霆的百回合得分仅为88.9分。雷霆全队平均百回合内线得分为51.3分，但当文班亚马在场时，这一数据骤降至百回合仅33.3分。
马刺队在对阵雷霆时极少的失误也为他们的防守提供了帮助。上周的两场胜利，是雷霆本赛季仅有的七次迫使对手百回合失误少于14次的比赛中的两场。福克斯在周二的比赛中得分不多（6分），但在圣诞大战中他独得29分，并且在这三场比赛中送出了16次助攻，仅有2次失误的助攻失误比。总的来说，当福克斯在场时，马刺的进攻效率达到最佳（百回合得到119.4分）。
但在缺少福克斯的情况下输给爵士，更多是防守端的问题。文班亚马在他缺阵一个月后首次回到首发阵容，但马刺在99个回合里让对手得到127分，这是文班亚马出战的19场比赛中防守最糟糕的一场。
未来赛程： 马刺队本赛季对阵东部球队的两场失利（一场计入战绩，一场不计入）分别来自骑士队和尼克斯队。他们将有机会在本周向这两支球队复仇。
Law Murray, The Athletic — 第2位 (上周: 第5位)
时间胶囊： 维克托·文班亚马的夏日训练
“瘦长人”从深静脉血栓中康复，剃了光头，见到了哈利·波特，让凯文·加内特 (Kevin Garnett) 对他大声训话，与哈基姆·奥拉朱旺 (Hakeem Olajuwon) 一起进入实验室训练，并宣告开启“野兽模式”。我希望他能打上20年。我曾强烈考虑将圣安东尼奥排在这份榜单的首位，但马刺队已经两次在打完雷霆之后立刻输掉了接下来的比赛。我知道第一场（NBA季中锦标赛对阵纽约尼克斯）并不计入战绩，但实力榜排名本就是一种感觉，而且我愿意让文班放手一搏，因为他已经从卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet) 手中夺回了马刺队的首发中锋位置。
Brett Siegel, Clutch Points — 第1位 (上周: 第3位)
马刺成为进入2026年NBA实力榜的新科第一，对任何人来说都应该不足为奇。这支年轻的球队不仅在13天内连续三次击败雷霆，而且圣安东尼奥近期的状态也一直非常火热。
在圣诞大战战胜雷霆后，马刺的连胜场次达到了八场，但却在主场以13分之差意外输给表现超预期的犹他爵士队，连胜就此终结。尽管如此，马刺在12月也仅仅输了三场比赛，这其中还包括技术上不计入常规赛战绩的NBA季中锦标赛决赛。
战胜俄克拉荷马城后，马刺发现自己已成为联盟中唯一一支在进攻和防守效率上都排名前五的球队。
未来赛程： 周一 12月29日 主场对阵 克利夫兰骑士；周三 12月31日 主场对阵 纽约尼克斯；周五 1月2日 客场对阵 印第安纳步行者；周六 1月3日 主场对阵 波特兰开拓者
预测战绩：3胜1负 — 马刺将以一个罕见的三连主场赛程收尾，他们有机会向最近击败自己的两支球队（爵士队之前）复仇，尽管输给尼克斯的比赛不计入常规赛战绩。随后他们将迎来一次舟车劳顿的背靠背比赛，对手是两支近况不佳的球队。假如他们能从输给爵士的比赛中吸取教训（并且福克斯能如期回归，目前看来可能性很大），他们完全有可能在本周取得全胜并开启一波新的连胜，但这又是一段艰苦的赛程，希望将近一周的主场作战能为他们提供充足的休息。

Week in Review: Spurs sweep Thunder miniseries, surge up power rankings boards
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 9: After losing to the Knicks in a Cup Finals game that doesn’t count in the standings, the Spurs swept an easy schedule for the rest of the week (two games against the cellar-dwelling Wizards and against the stumbling Atlanta Hawks) to rise up to second in the West.
Week 9: 2-1 (23-8, 2nd in West)
130-110 win vs. Oklahoma City Thunder
Recap: Looking to show their Cup Semifinals win in Vegas was no fluke, it was a tight game for three quarters before the Spurs exploded in the fourth quarter, using a full team effort to get their second win of the season against the defending champions and 7th straight overall for the first time since 2019.
117-102 win at Oklahoma City Thunder
Recap: Many probably thought the Thunder would be out for vengeance on their own court, on Christmas no less, after suffering neutral site and road (for them) losses to the Spurs, but instead the Spurs proved they just might have their number, using excellent defense and a ruthless team attack to once again make the defending champions look pedestrian. As Shai Gilgeous-Alexander said afterwards, you don’t lose to a team three times in less than two weeks if they aren’t better than you.
114-127 loss vs. Utah Jazz
Recap: After the thrilling mini-series sweep of the Thunder, the Spurs walked into the ultimate trap game, and while they had avoided a few during their eight-game win streak, the Jazz finally caught them on an off night. Despite Victor Wembanyama returning to the starting lineup, the Spurs were missing De’Aaron Fox to a sore abductor, and his absence was felt as the Spurs’ offense went cold after the first quarter and never truly recovered. Despite a late rally attempt in the fourth quarter, they fell short, ending their win streak at 8 games.
Power Rankings
John Schuhmann, NBA.com — 1 (last week: 5)
OffRtg: 118.8 (5) DefRtg: 112.5 (5) NetRtg: +6.2 (6) Pace: 100.7 (18)
The Spurs’ eight-game winning streak (in games that count toward the standings) came to an end on Saturday, when De’Aaron Fox missed their game against the Jazz. But they still have more wins against the Thunder than the rest of the league, having beat the champs on a neutral court, at home and on the road.
Three takeaways
The Spurs are now the only team that ranks in the top five on both ends of the floor. They knocked the Thunder out of the top five on offense by holding them to just 107.0 points per 100 possessions over three meetings in the last 16 days. That includes just 88.9 per 100 in Victor Wembanyama’s 70 minutes. The Thunder average 51.3 points in the paint per 100 possessions overall, but just 33.3 per 100 with Wembanyama on the floor.
The defense is aided by the Spurs’ lack of turnovers against the Thunder. Their two wins last week were two of the seven times that the Thunder have forced fewer than 14 turnovers per 100 possessions. Fox had a quiet night scoring (six points) on Tuesday, but he led the way with 29 points on Christmas, and he has an assist/turnover ratio of 16/2 over the three games. Overall, the Spurs’ offense has been at its best (119.4 points scored per 100 possessions) with Fox on the floor.
But the loss to Utah without Fox was more about the defense. Wembanyama was in the starting lineup for the first time since his month-long absence, but the Spurs allowed 127 points on 99 possessions, their worst defensive game of the 19 that Wembanyama has played in.
Coming up: The Spurs’ two losses against the Eastern Conference (one that counts in the standings, one that doesn’t) have come against the Cavs and the Knicks. They’ll have opportunities to avenge them both this week.
Law Murray, The Athletic — 2 (last week: 5)
Time Capsule: Victor Wembanyama’s summer training
The Slenderman healed from deep vein thrombosis, shaved his head, met Harry Potter, let Kevin Garnett yell at him, went into the lab with Hakeem Olajuwon and declared beast mode. I hope he plays for 20 years. I strongly considered having San Antonio top this list, but the Spurs have lost their games immediately after playing the Thunder twice now. I know the first one didn’t count (NBA Cup vs New York Knicks), but these rankings are a vibe, and I’m willing to let Wemby cook now that he has the Spurs starting center position back from Luke Kornet.
Brett Siegel, Clutch Points — 1 (last week: 3)
It should come as no surprise to anyone that the Spurs are the new No. 1 team in the NBA power rankings heading into 2026. Not only has this young team defeated the Thunder three straight times in the span of 13 days, but San Antonio has been red hot as of late.
The Spurs’ win streak hit five games following their Christmas Day win over the Thunder, but it surprisingly ended with a 13-point home loss to the better-than-expected Utah Jazz. Still, the Spurs have only lost three games in December, and that includes their NBA Cup championship matchup against the New York Knicks, which technically doesn’t count.
Following their win over Oklahoma City, the Spurs find themselves as the only team in the league to rank in the top five in both offensive and defensive rating.
Coming up: Mon. 12/29 vs. Cleveland Cavaliers; Wed. 12/31 vs. New York Knicks; Fri. 1/2 at Indiana Pacers; Sat. 1/3 vs. Portland Trail Blazers
Prediction: 3-1 — The Spurs complete their rare three-game home stand with a chance to get revenge on the last two teams to beat them before the Jazz (even though the Knicks loss didn’t count in the schedule), followed by a back-to-back with travel against two struggling teams. Assuming they learn from the Jazz loss (and get Fox right back, which seems to be the case), they could just as easily sweep this week and start a new streak, but it’s another tiring stretch of games, so hopefully the near-week at home provides plenty of rest.
