尽管在进入常规赛收官战之前,马刺作为西部二号种子的席位已经稳如泰山,但如果他们能击败丹佛掘金,他们本仍有机会在第二轮的对阵形势中掌握一定话语权。不幸的是,在缺少两名中锋的情况下,马刺的阵容过于矮小,无法应对掘金的后场进攻;而掘金在第二节打出的一波得分高潮,最终让马刺陷入了难以翻身的巨大劣势,并以118-128落败。尽管如此,他们仍以62胜20负的战绩结束了本赛季,相比上赛季取得了惊人的36胜提升,并且自2019年以来首次杀入季后赛。

达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 领衔马刺六人得分上双,砍下24分;而朱利安·斯特劳瑟 (Julian Strawther) 为掘金贡献了全场最高的25分,尼古拉·约基奇 (Nikola Jokic) 在半场比赛中便拿下了23分和8个篮板。

观察与总结

  • 两支球队在进入本场比赛时都各自有所追求。掘金需要一场胜利或湖人的失利来稳住第三种子的位置;而马刺则掌控着自己第二轮的命运,因为击败掘金且湖人获胜的话,会将掘金推至第四种子,从而进入雷霆所在的半区。话虽如此,两队似乎对此都并不太在意,马刺轮休了维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama)(他承认如果不是为了凑够第65场比赛,他本不会在对阵波特兰的比赛中上场)和卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet);而掘金除了约基奇之外,几乎轮休了所有核心球员,约基奇也只需要再打15分钟即可获得评奖资格。
  • 没有文班亚马或科内特,意味着梅森·普拉姆利 (Mason Plumlee) 获得了首发机会,比斯马克·比永博 (Bismack Biyombo) 担任其初始替补,但卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 再次成为了替补中锋位置上的答案。他在第一节表现出色,拿到5分并送出3次盖帽,但在过去几场比赛三分球合计9投8中之后,他本场比赛的三分球仅有7投1中。
  • 话虽如此,马刺在面对约基奇和约纳斯·瓦兰丘纳斯 (Jonas Valanciunas) 等人时,打小球战术不出所料地陷入了困境,上半场篮板球以18-33落后。他们在第二节的大部分时间里还遭遇了严重的得分荒,在福克斯于比赛还剩10分43秒投进三分后,直到还剩2分44秒德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell) 投进三分前,他们都没有得分,期间被对手打出一波22-0,落后分差达到23分。幸运的是,那记三分球激励了马刺在半场结束前打出一波16-7的高潮,其中包括福克斯在鸣哨前投进的一记近乎中场的三分球,将比分追至56-70,分差回到14分。
  • 约基奇在上半场打满了18分钟,下半场未再出战。虽然马刺的进攻在第三节有所起色,但面对一群“名不见经传”的掘金球员,他们依然无法完成足够的防守,也无法阻止对手走上罚球线。在最后两分钟,凭借四记三分球(两记来自斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle),凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson) 和哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes) 各一记),马刺在进入第四节前将分差缩小到10分,但如果不是因为一些草率的犯规,他们本可以追得更近。
  • 第四节的情况大同小异:缺少中锋的马刺通过几次精彩表现将分差缩小到个位数,但由于体型劣势,他们无法限制瓦兰丘纳斯,也无法通过持续的防守或连续的进球打出更长久的进攻高潮。结果是丹佛锁定了第三种子,如果他们能在首轮击败森林狼,将成为马刺潜在的第二轮对手。至于马刺,他们将对阵菲尼克斯太阳与波特兰开拓者之间附加赛(第7对阵第8)的胜者。开拓者本赛季战绩与快船持平,但凭借胜负关系优势排在前面。
  • 巴恩斯本场比赛需要得到17分才能将场均得分提升至10分,从而使马刺本赛季场均得分上双的球员达到八位(感谢雅各布·道格拉斯 (Jacob Douglas) 的数据提供)。他最终11投5中,三分球5投2中,得到12分,遗憾未能达标。

好吧,这场常规赛收官战并不算愉快,但马刺自2019年以来首次重返季后赛,届时他们应该会全员健康并准备就绪。燥起来吧,马刺球迷们!

San Antonio vs. Denver, Final Score: Small Spurs can’t handle Nuggets in regular season finale, 118-128

Even though the Spurs’ spot as the 2nd seed in the West was set in stone coming into the regular season finale, they still could have had a say in their second round match-up if they could have beaten the Denver Nuggets. Unfortunately, without their two centers, the Spurs were too small to deal with the Nuggets’ back court, and one big Nuggets run in the second quarter ended up putting them in too big of a hole to climb back out of on the way to a 118-128 loss. Still, they finish the season 62-20 for an impressive 36-game turnaround and are headed to the playoffs for the first time since 2019.

De’Aaron Fox led six Spurs in double figures with 24 points, while Julian Strawther led the Nuggets with 25 points, and Nikola Jokic had 23 points and 8 rebounds in one half of play.

Observations

  • Both teams entered this game in control of something. The Nuggets needed a win or Lakers loss to remain in the third seed, and the Spurs controlled their second round destiny since beating the Nuggets and a Lakers win would push them down to the fourth seed and into the Thunder’s side of the bracket. That being said, neither team seemed to be too concerned about that, as the Spurs sat Victor Wembanyama (who admitted he would not have played in the Portland game had he not needed a 65th game) and Luke Kornet, while the Nuggets sat almost everyone of note except Jokic, who needed 15 more minutes to also be award eligible.
  • No Wemby or Kornet meant Mason Plumlee got the start and Bismack Biyombo was his initial backup, but once again, Carter Bryant ended up being the answer at backup center. He had a great first quarter with 5 points and 3 blocks but, after hitting 8-9 threes over the last few games, hit just 1-7 in this game.
  • That being said, the Spurs predictably struggled playing small ball against the likes of Jokic and Jonas Valanciunas, getting out-rebounded 33-18 in the first half. They also had a massive scoring drought for most of the second quarter, not scoring between a De’Aaron Fox three with 10:43 to go and a Vassell three with 2:44 left, during which time they were outscored 22-0 to get down by 23. Fortunately, that three sparked the Spurs to close the half on a 16-7 run, including a near half-court three from Fox at the buzzer to get back within 14, 56-70.
  • Jokic got his 18 minutes in the first half and did not play in the second, and while the Spurs offense was better in the third quarter, they still couldn’t get enough stops against a team of “who he play for” Nuggets, nor could they keep them off the line. Four threes in the final two minutes (two from Castle, one from Keldon Johnson and Harrison Barnes) got them within 10 to start the fourth, but they could have been closer without some careless fouls.
  • The fourth quarter was pretty much the same story: the center-less Spurs would have a few big plays to get within single digits but just didn’t have enough size to deal with Valanciunus, and they couldn’t get enough stops or hit enough consecutive shots to make an extended run. The result is Denver will be the third seed and potential second round match-up if they get by the Timberwolves in the first round. As for the Spurs, they will face the winner of the 7 vs. 8 play-in game between the Phoenix Sun and Portland Trail Blazers, who finished the season tied with the Clippers but own the tie-breaker.
  • Barnes needed 17 points in this game to reach 10 ppg for the season and give the Spurs eight players averaging double figures (hat tip to Jacob Douglas). He came up short with 12 points on 5-11 shooting, 2-5 from three.

Well, that wasn’t a fun regular season finale, but the Spurs are headed back to the playoffs for the first time since 2019, and they should be perfectly healthy and ready to go by then. Get excited, Spurs fans!
