圣安东尼奥马刺将在两周后迎来他们七个赛季以来的首场季后赛。这支球队的表现远超预期，并在通往季后赛前两轮主场优势的道路上高歌猛进。随着赛季接近尾声，马刺似乎不太可能赶超俄克拉荷马城雷霆夺得榜首位置，但他们仍将拭目以待，看看自己在季后赛中可能面对谁。
圣安东尼奥很可能将对阵首场附加赛的胜者。菲尼克斯太阳极有可能主办这场比赛，而洛杉矶快船和波特兰开拓者正在为第八名展开激烈争夺。在所有这些球队中，马刺对阵快船的战绩最为出色，本赛季的交锋记录为 3 胜 0 负。圣安东尼奥对阵太阳的战绩为 2 胜 2 负，对阵开拓者为 1 胜 1 负，双方的最后一场较量将于周三晚上进行。
如果马刺能够晋级，他们在第二轮可能会面临强劲的对手。随着卢卡·东契奇 (Luka Doncic) 和奥斯汀·里夫斯 (Austin Reaves) 相继受伤，洛杉矶湖人陷入溃败，丹佛掘金乘势锁定了三号种子席位，且看起来地位稳固。掘金刚刚在加时赛中击败马刺，本赛季对阵圣安东尼奥的战绩为 2 胜 1 负。马刺将在第 82 场比赛中对阵掘金，力求扳平交锋战绩。如果掘金在首轮出局，马刺将面对明尼苏达森林狼，本赛季圣安东尼奥对阵他们的战绩为 1 胜 2 负。
马刺在今年的季后赛中可能会遭遇一些硬仗。你最希望看到他们在每一轮对阵哪支球队？你认为马刺夺冠最现实的路径是什么？请参与投票，我们将在本周晚些时候公布结果。

The Spurs’ preferred playoff matchups
The San Antonio Spurs will play their first playoff game in seven seasons in two weeks. The team has blown out all of their expectations on their way to home-court advantage through two rounds of the playoffs. As the season comes to an end, it seems unlikely the Spurs will catch the Oklahoma City Thunder for first place, but they will still be standing watching to see who they may face in the playoffs.
San Antonio will likely play the winner of the first Play-In game. The Phoenix Suns are likely to host the game, while the Los Angeles Clippers and Portland Trail Blazers are battling it out for eighth place. Of all those teams, the Spurs have had the most success against the Clippers, going 3-0 in their matchup this season. San Antonio is 2-2 against the Suns and 1-1 against the Blazers, with their final matchup coming on Wednesday night.
The Spurs are likely to face some stout competition in the second round, if they advance. With the Lakers in free fall following injuries to Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, the Denver Nuggets have grabbed the three seed, and they seem to be a lock to hold onto it. Denver just defeated the Spurs in overtime and holds a 2-1 record against San Antonio this year. The Spurs will play the Nuggets in game 82, looking to even the series. If Denver loses in the first round, the Spurs will face the Minnesota Timberwolves, whom San Antonio went 1-2 against this season.
The Spurs have some potentially tough matchups coming up this postseason. Which team would you most like to see them face in each round? What is your best, realistic path for the Spurs to win a championship? Vote in the poll, and we will be back with the results later this week.
