2026年3月5日，周四，在圣安东尼奥霜银中心球馆，圣安东尼奥马刺队前锋维克托·文班亚马 (1) 防守底特律活塞队中锋杰伦·杜伦 (0)。马刺队以 121-106 击败了活塞队。
底特律主帅J.B.·比克斯塔夫 (J.B. Bickerstaff) 在周四晚上的比赛前告诉记者，说马刺不是一支身体对抗强硬的球队是不正确的。
活塞队以 NBA 最强硬的球队之一著称，但比克斯塔夫认为马刺也“打出了身体对抗极强的篮球风格”。
“我认为这一点并没有被频繁提及，但当你防守那么出色时（你就是强硬的），”比克斯塔夫在谈到防守效率排名 NBA 第三（111.0）的马刺队时说道。“还有他们如何对持球人施压，如何出色地贴身防守，迫使球交给大个子处理，让大个子去护筐。观察他们的进攻，他们在掩护方面做得也非常棒。”
“所以他们极具对抗性。我预计今晚哪支球队在对抗中更具针对性，哪支球队就能笑到最后。”
事实证明，那支球队正是马刺队，他们在 11 天内第二次击败了东部领头羊，以 121-106 战胜了活塞队。
是的，他们是身体对抗更出色的一方。这一点体现在他们拼抢每一个“五五开”球的坚定决心上。
有两个回合脱颖而出：新秀前锋卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 在第三节末段倒地扑向地板去争夺地板球，以及第六人凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson) 在第四节中段跳过记录台以确保皮球留在场内。
“底特律总是能制造出这种类型的比赛，”马刺主帅米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson) 在被问及布莱恩特和约翰逊的拼抢表现时说道。“这并不总是意味着你必须去撞击对方球员。这关乎接触、竞争意识和积极的跑位，有时你会飞向地板、边线或撞在别人身上。我认为我们没有退缩。今天我们只是试着去相信自己的直觉。”
马刺全明星中锋维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 本场砍下 38 分，并在 39 分钟内贡献了 16 个篮板和 5 次盖帽，展现了十足的对抗性，他也注意到了布莱恩特和约翰逊的积极表现。
“我们对此大加赞赏，”文班亚马说道。“我们确实非常推崇这种表现，我认为我们甚至需要更加强调这一点，因为正是这些细节能让你赢得那些本不该赢下的比赛。赢得比赛和夺取冠军有很多组成部分，在漫长的赛季中，你总会在某些时刻需要一点点运气，对吧？但那份运气，我们可以（通过积极拼抢）去创造它。我们可以影响它。而这些就是让好运发生的事情。”

How the Spurs’ non-stop hustle gave them an edge against Detroit
San Antonio Spurs forward Victor Wembanyama (1) guards Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (0) at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Thursday, March 5, 2026. The Spurs defeated the Pistons, 121-106.
Detroit coach J.B. Bickerstaff told reporters before Thursday night’s game it’s incorrect to say the Spurs aren’t a physical team.
The Pistons are known as one of the NBA’s toughest teams, but Bickerstaff believes the Spurs also “play a physical brand of basketball.”
“I don’t think it gets mentioned as much, but when you’re that good defensively (you are physical),” Bickerstaff said of the Spurs, who rank third in the NBA in defensive rating (111.0). "And how they put pressure on the ball, how they do a great job of getting into guys, forcing the ball to their bigs, letting their bigs protect (the rim). You watch them offensively, they do a great job of screening.
“So they’re physical. I expect the team that’s the most physical with a purpose will be the team that comes out on top tonight.”
That turned out to be the Spurs, who downed the Pistons 121-106 for their second win over the East leaders in 11 days.
And, yes, they were the more physical team. One way that showed up was in their fierce determination to corral every 50-50 ball.
Two plays stood out: Rookie forward Carter Bryant diving on the court to track down a loose ball late in the third quarter and sixth man Keldon Johnson leaping over the scorer’s to keep a ball in play midway through the fourth.
“Detroit produces those types of games,” Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said when asked about the hustle plays by Bryant and Johnson. “It doesn’t always mean you got to go hit the guy on the other team. It’s just contact, competitiveness, a lot of flying around, and sometimes you fly on the floor, in the sidelines or into the bodies. And I thought we didn’t blink. We just tried to trust our instincts today.”
Spurs All-Star center Victor Wembanyama, who finished with 38 points and was plenty physical himself with 16 rebounds and five blocks in 39 minutes, also noticed the hustle plays by Bryant and Johnson.
“We praise that,” Wembanyama said. “We do praise it, and I think we even need to put a bigger emphasis on it because those are the details that get you wins that you’re not supposed to (get). There are many components in winning games and winning championships, and over a season, you will need a little bit of luck at some time, right? But that luck, we can make it happen (with hustle). We can influence it. And these are the things that make luck happen.”
