上周日晚，NBA 全部 30 支球队悉数登场，力求在同一时间段揭晓最终的对阵形势。
在赛后新闻发布会上，官方宣布马刺的首场比赛将于本周日进行。社交媒体上随即流传出了详细的赛程安排。

马刺的比赛被安排在 4 月 19 日周日中部时间 (CST) 晚上 8:00，这也是当天的最后一场比赛。他们的对手将是 7 号种子菲尼克斯太阳队或 8 号种子波特兰开拓者队。
这两支球队之间的附加赛将于中部时间周二晚 9:00 进行。胜者将对阵马刺，而败者将与洛杉矶快船队和金州勇士队之间 9/10 名附加赛的胜者展开决战，争夺在季后赛首轮挑战俄克拉荷马城雷霆队的机会。
在赛后发布会上，马刺前锋卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 表示，在马刺等待结果期间，他会关掉手机，守在电视机前认真做笔记。这位新秀对季后赛感到兴奋。上周三，马刺主教练米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson) 确认布莱恩特将在季后赛获得上场时间。看着这位前亚利桑那大学野猫队成员在赛季末打出名堂，约翰逊很容易就做出了这个决定。
如果布莱恩特能延续周日晚隔扣尼古拉·约基奇 (Nikola Jokic) 那样的表现，他的出场时间绝对有保障。
斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 呼应了布莱恩特的观点，他表示无论对手是谁，他们都必须做好应对一切的准备。
对于马刺而言，阵中许多球员都是职业生涯首次进入季后赛。但他们并非完全没有季后赛经验。
梅森·普拉姆利 (Mason Plumlee) 和哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes)（71 场）、凯利·奥利尼克 (Kelly Olynyk)（48 场）、卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet)（43 场）、比斯马克·比永博 (Bismack Biyombo)（40 场）、乔丹·麦克劳克林 (Jordan McLaughlin)（13 场）、德阿隆·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox)（7 场）、林迪·沃特斯三世 (Lindy Waters III)（3 场）都拥有不同程度的季后赛经验。
遗憾的是，除了福克斯和巴恩斯之外，这些拥有季后赛经验的球员大多处于轮换阵容的末端，出场时间较少。
当然，科内特（2024 年）和巴恩斯（2015 年）都曾夺得过总冠军。他们拥有的宝贵经验将在整个季后赛征程中派上用场。
在那之前，马刺将静观其变。
马刺加油！

Open Thread: Spurs first playoff game is set for Sunday
Last Sunday evening, all 30 NBA teams played in an effort to unveil matchups as close to one another as possible.
At the postgame press conference, it was announced that the Spurs first game takes place this Sunday. Almost immediately, social media erupted with a schedule.

The Spurs play the last game on Sunday, April 19 at 8:00 p.m. CST. Their opponent will either be the 7th seed Phoenix Suns or the 8th seed Portland Trail Blazers.
The play-in between them takes place Tuesday night at 9:00 p.m. CST. The winner faces the Spurs, and the loser slugs it out against the winner of the 9th/10th play-in contest between the Los Angeles Clippers and Golden State Warriors for the opportunity to face the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first round of the playoffs.
In his postgame presser, Spurs forward Carter Bryant said he’d be glued to his TV, phone off, and taking notes as the Spurs await the results. The rookie is excited for the postseason. Last Wednesday, Spurs Head Coach Mitch Johnson confirmed Bryant will have minutes in the playoffs. Watching the former Arizona Wildcat come into his own late in the season, the decision was easy for Johnson.
If Bryant continues to posterize MVPs the way he did Nikola Jokic on Sunday night, his minutes are guaranteed.
Stephon Castle mirrored what Bryant shared that it doesn’t matter who they are facing, they must be ready for anything.
For the Spurs, many players are entering their first playoffs. But they are not without postseason exposure.
Mason Plumlee and Harrison Barnes (71 games), Kelly Olynyk (48 games), Luke Kornet (43 games), Bismack Biyombo (40 games), Jordan McLaughlin (13 games), De’Aaron Fix (7 games), Lindy Waters III (3 games) all have varied levels of playoff experience.
Unfortunately, with the exception of Fox and Barnes, the players with games under their belts are on the lower half of the roster for minutes.
Of course, Luke Kornet (2024) and Harrison Barnes (2015) have already won titles. They possess knowledge that will come in handy throughout the process.
Until then, the Spurs are watching and waiting.
Go Spurs Go!
