当马刺即便在显得疲惫且脚步稍慢的情况下，依然能大胜弱旅时，你就知道他们已经比一个月前提升到了一个新的高度（别忘了，马刺以前常有“遇弱则弱”的毛病）。在昨晚多伦多经历了一场艰苦且耗尽体力的胜利后，马刺通过强势开局并克服几段低迷期，凭借多点开花和及时出现的手感火热者，以126-110击败布鲁克林篮网，成功避免了因掉以轻心而输球。
马刺阵中七人得分上双，家乡子弟兵朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie) 全场14投10中，其中三分球9投6中，砍下全队最高的26分。篮网方面，小迈克尔·波特 (Michael Porter, Jr.) 上半场手感冰凉，但下半场迎来爆发，最终得到25分14个篮板。
比赛观察
- 埃德·马洛伊 (Ed Malloy) 一直是我在联盟中最不喜欢的裁判之一（自负、爱吹技术犯规等等），他在跳球阶段就再次证明了原因。尼克·克拉克斯顿 (Nic Claxton) 一直在拉拽维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 并侵入其领地，导致比赛多次中断重开。当马洛伊终于把球抛出时，克拉克斯顿整个人都挂在了文班身上，而文班依然赢下了跳球。然而，马洛伊并没有选择顺其自然让比赛开始，也没有吹罚克拉克斯顿犯规，而是决定重跳。文班再次赢下了跳球，但拜托，埃德！（我想我快没精力去细究这些裁判细节了。）
- 第一节比赛有些沉闷，但这种沉闷对马刺来说是好事，因为他们正在做该做的事：有条不紊地（尽管并不令人兴奋）蚕食实力较弱的对手。虽然没有近期对阵强敌时的那种激情，但德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell) 保持了火热手感，两次三分尝试全部命中，而斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 更是彻底打穿了篮网糟糕的防守，单节砍下13分，带领球队取得36-22的领先。
- 第二节开局，马刺队的两名来自纽约/新泽西地区的球员——尚帕尼和迪兰·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 各进两记三分，联手打出一波三分雨。但随后马刺似乎失去了专注力，表现开始变得松懈，篮网趁机将一度达到22分的分差缩小到12分。不过，马刺再次展现出了强队风范，在半场结束前稳住局面并重新夺回主动权，尚帕尼半场便砍下了19分。
- 第三节开局马刺再次出现“断电”，在小波特单节砍下17分的情况下，篮网一度将分差缩小到仅剩6分。这一次，轮到达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 扮演定海神针，他拿到10分并策动球权流转。这帮助其他队友找回了状态，凭借随后命中的五记三分，马刺将领先优势扩大到20分。比赛自此基本失去悬念，第四节成了漫长的垃圾时间。
- 维克托·文班亚马连续第三场在进攻端状态平平，不过他今晚并没有强行进攻。他直到第二节末段才投中首个运动战进球，最终得到12分、7个篮板、5次助攻和2次盖帽。他在昨晚击败多伦多的赛后提到，由于全明星周末期间缺乏休息，加上昨晚没睡好，他感到有些疲惫。今晚的背靠背比赛显然对此没有帮助，但他们在对阵尼克斯之前有两天的休息时间，随后是去费城的短暂火车行程，希望未来几天的休息和免于奔波能帮助他找回节奏。
- 这场胜利让马刺取得了队史第三次单月全胜（在至少进行10场比赛的情况下）。他们的这波11连胜全部发生在2月份，最后一场失利还是那场臭名昭著的夏洛特大雪战。此外，如果他们能赢下接下来的两场，就将横扫整个“牛仔节客场之旅”。在本赛季开始前，谁能预料到这一幕呢？

San Antonio at Brooklyn, Final Score: Spurs do enough to comfortably get by Nets, 126-110
You know the Spurs have reached a new level from even a month ago when they can look tired and a step slow, and still blow out a bad team (remember, playing down to opponents used to be a thing of theirs). After a hard-fought, exhausting win in Toronto the night before, the Spurs avoided a letdown game against the Brooklyn Nets by beginning the game strong and overcoming some rough stretches by spreading the wealth and riding the hot hand of the moment on their way to a 126-110 victory.
Seven Spurs scored in double figures, led by 26 from the hometown kid Julian Champagnie on 10-14 shooting, 6-9 from three. Michael Porter, Jr. was cold in the first half but exploded in the second for the Nets, finishing with 25 points and 14 rebounds.
Observations
- Ed Malloy has always been one of my least favorite refs in the league (egotistical, heavy with the technicals, etc.), and he reminded me why at tip-off. Nic Claxton was grabbing Victor Wembanyama and crossing into his territory, so there were lots stops to reset him. Then, when Malloy finally threw the jump ball, Claxton was draped all over Wemby, who still won it. However, instead of either letting it go and allowing the game to start or calling a foul on Claxton, Malloy decided to redo the throw. Wemby again won it, but come on, Ed! (I think I’m running out of basketball brain cells to want to type this all out.)
- The first quarter was a snooze fest, but in a good way because the Spurs were doing what they’re supposed to do: methodically (if unexcitedly) work down an inferior opponent. It lacked the excitement of recent games and opponents, but Devin Vassell remained hot, hitting is two three-point attempts, and Stephon Castle carved up the Nets’ putrid defense for 13 points in the quarter on the way to a 36-22 lead.
- The Spurs hit four straight threes to open the second quarter each from their two NY/NJ-area players in Champagnie and Dylan Harper, but things got for sloppy as the Spurs seemed to lose focus, and the Nets managed to cut what had been a 22-point lead down to 12. But, they again did what good teams do and got their act back together to regain control by halftime, behind 19 first-half points from Champagnie.
- The Spurs were again asleep at the wheel to start the third quarter as the Nets got within six while Porter Jr. got hot with 17 points in the quarter. This time, it was De’Aaron Fox’s turn to be the stabilizer with 10 points and initiating ball movement. That helped spark everyone else back into form, and five more made threes helped the Spurs get the lead back out to 20, and that was essentially the ball game with the fourth quarter being extended garbage time.
- Victor Wembanyama had his third straight off game on offense, although he wasn’t forcing things tonight. He finally got his first field goal late in the second quarter and finished with 12 points on 3-9 shooting, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks. He mentioned after last night’s win in Toronto that he was tired from the lack of rest during All-Star weekend and he hadn’t slept well the night before. The back-to-back tonight probably didn’t help much in that regard, but they have two days off before they play the Knicks, followed by a quick train ride to Philadelphia, so hopefully the rest and lack of travel over the next several days helps him regain his rhythm.
- The win gives the Spurs their third undefeated month in franchise history (with a minimum of 10 games played). Their entire 11-game win streak has been within the month of February, with their last loss being the infamous snow game in Charlotte. Also, if they win the next two, they will sweep the Rodeo Road Trip. Who saw this happening coming into the season?
