勇士本场比赛缺少了 9 名球员，不得不派出由落选秀为主组成的临时拼凑阵容。尽管他们在这一场肉搏战中表现得非常努力，马刺也并非处于最佳状态，但对于这支人手短缺的金州球队来说，天赋上的差距实在难以逾越。马刺始终没能将比赛彻底打花，但维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 表现神勇，砍下 41 分和 18 个篮板，全场下半场始终让勇士处于追赶态势。金州始终无法将分差缩小到个位数，最终圣安东尼奥以 127-113 胜出。
观察心得
- 上场比赛我用了“马刺在比赛末段燃油耗尽”这个陈旧的比喻。不幸的是，几个小时后另一位作者也用了同样的词。我的错，我本该像奥兹 (Ozzy) 那样继续待在“疯狂列车”上的。[更新：我并没有登上疯狂列车]
- 肖恩·埃利奥特 (Sean Elliott) 和雅各布·托比 (Jacob Tobey) 今晚休息，因为比赛在 ESPN 进行全美直播。我想我会非常怀念第三节有一半时间被美食评论和看他们吃东西占据的时光。迈克·布林 (Mike Breen) 和蒂姆·莱格勒 (Tim Legler) 负责解说，还有理查德·杰弗森 (Richard Jefferson)，我好像从没见过他们在镜头前吃东西。
- 布兰登·波杰姆斯基 (Brandin Podziemski) 不知为何在开场第一回合就发现自己在防守文班，结果对他来说并不美妙，文班亚马打成了一次 2+1。马刺开局迅速进入状态，在前四分钟打出 17-3 的高潮，迫使科尔迅速请求暂停。
- 内特·威廉姆斯 (Nate Williams) 对勇士来说是个不错的天才，扮演着乔丹·麦克劳林 (Jordan McLaughlin) 那样的角色。他在比赛早期面对维克托完成了一次上篮，但下次他再尝试时，文班已经做好了准备，直接将球扇飞。
- 马刺在第一节一度领先多达 17 分，但随后波杰姆斯基开始发力，勇士打出一波 13-2 的攻势将分差缩小到仅剩 6 分。马刺在首节末段回敬了一波 5-2，第一节结束时以 35-26 领先。
- 奥梅尔·尤尔特塞文 (Omer Yurtseven) 的肘部击中了福克斯的脸部，令人惊讶的是，这竟然没被吹罚犯规。福克斯只缺席了几分钟，幸运的是伤得不重。他在一次突破篮下时还重重地撞到了瓦塞尔，这球被吹了犯规，但可能应该是个一级恶意犯规。
- 勇士阵容中剩下的球员天赋并不算高，但他们打得很强硬，有些场面甚至让人不忍直视。他们在第二节早期将分差缩小到 5 分，但马刺顶住了压力，在文班亚马半场狂砍 27 分 13 篮板的疯狂表现带领下，以 70-49 领先。
- 上半场出现了两次转换进攻故意犯规 (transition take fouls)，我不知道我以前是否见过这种情况。第三节他们还来了一个路径阻挡犯规 (clear path foul)。
- 勇士队中的库里表现不错。不是那个库里。塞斯·库里 (Seth Curry) 今晚为金州队贡献了不错的手感。
- 德雷蒙德·格林 (Draymond Green) 的投篮出手非常慢，让人联想起中世纪的投石机，但今晚他的投篮很准，就像古代攻城武器将巨石精准地投进敌人的堡垒。
- 梅森·普拉姆利 (Mason Plumlee) 看起来毫无作用。我真心希望他在季后赛中不必上场。
- 马刺在第三节的努力程度有所下降，勇士单节以 34-26 领先“银黑军团”，在进入末节前将圣安东尼奥的领先优势缩小到 96-83。
- 马刺在第四节开始认真应对，在比赛还剩 6 分钟时一度领先 26 分。最后几分钟他们手感稍冷，勇士通过命中一些投篮美化了比分，但结果从未有过悬念，最终马刺以 127-113 获胜。
马刺迎来了本赛季最后一次背靠背赛程，明晚将在洛杉矶对阵快船。快船或勇士都可能成为马刺季后赛首轮的对手，取决于他们在附加赛的表现，所以我确信银黑军团想要找到利用对手弱点的方法。接下来的比赛会很有趣。

San Antonio vs Golden State, Final Score: Spurs hold off short-handed Warriors 127-113
The Warriors were missing nine players and had to play a patchwork lineup of mostly undrafted players. They played with a lot of effort in a rough and tumble game and the Spurs didn’t play their cleanest game, but the talent difference was too much for the undermanned Golden State squad. The Spurs never quite turned the game into a blowout, but Wembanyama was transcendent with 41 points and 18 rebounds, and they kept the Warriors at arm’s length for the entire second half. Golden State could never cut the lead to single digits as San Antonio won 127-113
Observations
- The last game, I used the tired metaphor that the Spurs ran out of gas at the end of the game. Unfortunately, another writer used the same line a few hours later. My bad, I should have stayed on the crazy train with Ozzy. [UPDATE: I did not get aboard the CRAZY TRAIN]
- Sean Elliott and Jacob Tobey had the night off as the game was nationally televised on ESPN, and I expect I’ll really miss half of the third quarter being occupied with food reviews and watching those guys eat. Mike Breen and Tim Legler did the broadcast, with Richard Jefferson, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen them eat on camera.
- Brandin Podziemski somehow found himself defending Wemby on the first play, and it didn’t end well for him, with a Wembanyama and-one, as the Spurs scored the first 10 points. The Spurs were quick out of the gate as they led 17-3 in the first four minutes, leading to a quick Kerr timeout.
- Nate Williams is a nice talent for the Warriors, in the Jordan McLaughlin role. He got a quick layup over Victor early in the game, but the next time he tried it, Vic was ready and sent it back.
- The Spurs led by as much as 17 in the first quarter, but Podziemski happened, and the Warriors went on a 13-2 run to cut the lead to just six. The Spur finished the quarter on a 5-2 run to lead 35-26 after one quarter.
- Omer Yurtseven smacked Fox in the face with his elbow, and surprisingly, it was not called a foul. Fox just missed a few minutes, so luckily he wasn’t hurt too badly. He also smacked Vassell really hard on a drive to the basket, which was called a foul, but probably should have been a flagrant one.
- The players left on the roster of the Warriors aren’t that talented, but they played a physical game, and it was tough to watch at times. They brought the deficit to five points early in the second quarter, but the Spurs shrugged it off and led 70-49 behind an insane 27 point 13 rebound performance from Victor Wembanyama.
- There were two transition take fouls in the first half, and I don’t know if I’ve ever seen that. They topped it off with a clear path foul in the third quarter.
- The Warriors got a good game from Curry. Not that one. Seth had a nice night shooting the ball for the Golden Gaters.
- Draymond Green’s shot release is so slow that it’s reminiscent of a medieval trebuchet, but it was hitting its target tonight, like an ancient siege weapon lobbing boulders into the enemy’s keep.
- Mason Plumlee looks useless. I sure hope he doesn’t have to play in the playoffs.
- The Spurs effort was somewhat lacking in the third quarter, and the Warriors outscored the Silver and Black 34-26, to cut the San Antonio lead to 96-83 with one quarter to play.
- The Spurs got down to business in the fourth quarter and led by as much as 26 with 6 minutes left. They went a little cold in the final minutes, and the Warriors improved the cosmetics of the score by hitting some shots late, but the outcome was never in doubt as the Spurs won 127-113
The Spurs are on their last back-to-back of the season, which continues tomorrow night in LA against the Clippers. The Clippers or Warriors could be a first round playoff matchup for the Spurs, depending on how well they do in the play-in tournament, so I’m sure the Silver and Black wants to figure ways to take advantages of their weaknesses. It’s going to be fun to watch.
