在**维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama)**复出的这场第四战中，圣安东尼奥马刺队经历了一场跌宕起伏的较量。马刺在上半场的表现非常糟糕，尤其是进攻端，带着巨大的分差进入中场休息。然而，他们在下半场发起了猛烈的反击，以 73 比 35 的单半场比分碾压波特兰开拓者队，最终以 114-93 逆转取胜。现在，他们将带着系列赛 3-1 的领先优势回到主场，并有机会在周二终结系列赛。
这场日场比赛的开局不出所料地有些混乱，两支球队都深受失误困扰，马刺则表现出一些糟糕的投篮选择和令人质疑的转换防守。随着比赛的进行，局势趋于稳定，双方都试图打出自己的节奏。圣安东尼奥在防守端表现强硬，统治力十足的文班亚马在篮下不断干扰和改变对手的投篮，外线防守者也表现得积极且充满活力。银黑军团取得了一点微弱的领先，但不幸的是，随着替补阵容登场，这份领先优势便荡然无存，因为第二阵容在进攻端陷入了巨大的挣扎。正如他们常做的那样，在经历了一段得分荒后，开拓者打出一波流夺回了领先。当客队首发回到场上时，早些时候那种糟糕的投篮选择再次出现，让主队在首节 12 分钟结束时保持了 2 分的领先。
第一节的得分很低，而对马刺来说不幸的是，他们的进攻在第二节变得更加糟糕。**米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson)**尝试了一些奇怪的阵容，希望能找到火花，但都无济于事。开拓者的半场防守令人窒息，**朱·霍勒迪 (Jrue Holiday)**在外线限制文班亚马方面做得非常出色，而圣安东尼奥在进攻端表现出的单调和缺乏想象力，正是他们在常规赛中偶尔会因此受挫的问题。马刺的替补席在上半场以 5-23 的得分比被对手碾压，这表明整支球队都在挣扎，没有出现任何意外的英雄来拯救局面。开拓者则受益于马刺不够犀利的防守，以及一些并非核心得分点的球员投进了一些不可思议的球。但开拓者也值得称赞，他们抓住了每一次反击机会，并不断传导球直到找到空位球员。半场结束时，他们领先 17 分，这份领先优势是他们应得的。
尽管波特兰在上半场表现强势，但他们往往缺乏稳定性，因此感觉比赛并非遥不可及。马刺只需要找回自己的身份，完成几次防守，投进几个三分球，就有希望逐渐蚕食分差，利用好这个经常表现反复的对手。虽然有乐观的空间，但即使是最狂热的球迷也无法预料到圣安东尼奥重回正轨并在得分上追平的速度会有多快。早些时候还显得懒散的防守变成了一片流动的幻影，外线的每名球员都展现出了能量和侵略性。**斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle)**在攻防两端无处不在，尽管受困于犯规麻烦，但他依然拼尽全力，而文班亚马则封锁了禁区。甚至连第二阵容也找到了一些得分手段。银黑军团一切顺风顺水，而开拓者则陷入困境，单节仅得到 16 分。
进入末节时双方战平，人们担心马刺可能在填补大坑的过程中耗尽了所有能量。然而，事实恰恰相反。如果说有什么不同的话，那就是银黑军团在经历了精彩的第三节后显得更加精力充沛，并在第四节变得更具统治力。斯蒂芬·卡斯尔不断找到文班亚马，在内线轻松得分，而当这位年轻后卫不得不下场休息时，**达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox)**接管了比赛。开拓者再次陷入了失误频频的得分荒，这固然对马刺有利，但圣安东尼奥的防守也要为对手在进攻端的糟糕表现负部分责任。即使在最艰难的时刻，一场险胜似乎也是可能的，但很难预料到马刺会直接拉开分差，在第四节轰下 40 分——仅比他们整个上半场的得分少 1 分。这是一场了不起的逆转，展现了圣安东尼奥的上限究竟有多高。
比赛笔记
- 文班亚马在复出战中打出了惊人的数据统计。他在防守端始终保持着自己的水准，而在进攻端，当他更多地扮演终结者而非试图持球单打那些重心更低的小个防守者时，他表现得更加鲜活。对于文班来说，这是一次完美的回归。
- **迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper)**作为第三战的英雄，在周日的手感并不理想，但另外两名后卫表现出色。斯蒂芬·卡斯尔虽然受限于犯规麻烦，但在 27 分钟内依然贡献了 16 分和 8 次助攻，并在多段时间内打出了精英级别的防守。达龙·福克斯看到球队需要他更积极地寻找投篮机会，在 17 次出手下砍下 28 分，上场时间接近 40 分钟，在需要时接管了比赛。
- 不仅仅是哈珀在替补席表现挣扎。**卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet)和卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant)**在第三战中发挥了巨大作用，但在周日表现平平。**哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes)表现尚可，但戏份不多。而凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson)**再次得分仅为个位数。第二阵容并不是这场胜利的主要因素。
- 某些角色球员表现挣扎的一个可能原因，除了面对深度雄厚的对手外，可能源于米奇·约翰逊的阵容实验。其中一些是由于文班亚马缺阵被迫做出的调整，但米奇在上半场尝试了一些奇怪的阵容，效果确实不佳。他在下半场坚持了更传统的轮换，每个人似乎都感觉更舒服了。
- 在第三战**斯库特·亨德森 (Scoot Henderson)和迪伦·哈珀的口水战之后，斯蒂芬·卡斯尔和德尼·阿夫迪亚 (Deni Avdija)**之间也产生了火药味。斯蒂芬·卡斯尔在阿夫迪亚头上得分后，将球顶在阿夫迪亚的胸口，这位开拓者前锋推了他，斯蒂芬·卡斯尔也推了回去，随后两人在被拉开后又交换了一些激烈的言辞。裁判判罚了双方技术犯规，事态没有进一步升级，但显而易见，两支球队之间的频繁交手正在滋生敌意。

Spurs come back to win Game 4 against Trail Blazers in Victor Wembanyama’s return
The Spurs had a rollercoaster of a Game 4 in Victor Wembanyama’s return to action. San Antonio was dreadful, especially on offense, in the first half and trailed by a wide margin heading into the break before making a roaring comeback in the second half, outscoring the Trail Blazers 73 to 35 to get the 114-93 win. Now, they’ll return home up 3-1 in the series and with a chance to close it out on Tuesday.
The start of the matinee game was predictably sloppy, with both teams struggling with turnovers and the Spurs showing some poor shot selection and questionable transition defense. As the minutes passed, things stabilized, and the two squads tried to play their games. San Antonio locked down on defense with a dominant Wembanyama deterring and altering shots near the rim and the perimeter defenders being active and energetic. The Silver and Black took a small lead that would, unfortunately, disappear when the bench checked in, as they struggled massively on offense. As they tend to do, after a drought, the Blazers went on a run to regain the lead, and the poor shot selection from earlier returned when the starters did for the visitors, allowing the hosts to stay ahead by two after the opening 12 minutes.
It was a low-scoring first quarter, and unfortunately for the Spurs, their offense would only get worse in the second. Mitch Johnson tried some strange lineups in hopes of getting a spark, but nothing worked. The Blazers’ defense was suffocating in the halfcourt, with Jrue Holiday doing a great job of containing Wembanyama on the perimeter and San Antonio showing the lack of variety and imagination in its attack that hurt them occasionally in the regular season. The bench got outscored 23-5 in the first half, showing that the entire team was struggling and there would be no unexpected hero to save it. They were helped by a Spurs defense that wasn’t sharp and by some outrageous shotmaking from unlikely sources, but the Blazers should be commended for running every chance they got and moving the ball until it found the open man. At the break, they led by 17, and they deserved that buffer.
As dominant as Portland was in the first half, they tend to be inconsistent, so it didn’t feel like the game was out of reach. The Spurs just needed to remember their identity, get some stops, and hit some threes, and the hope was that they could eventually chip away at the deficit, taking advantage of their often erratic opponent. There was room for optimism, but not even the most bullish fan could have predicted how quickly San Antonio would get on track and catch up on the scoreboard. The defense, which was lackadaisical earlier, became a blur of movement, with everyone in the perimeter showing energy and aggression. Stephon Castle was everywhere on both ends, playing through foul trouble, and Victor Wembanyama sealed off the paint. Even the second unit found some scoring. Everything went well for the Silver and Black and poorly for the Blazers, who only scored 16 points in the frame.
The score was tied heading into the final period, and the concern was that the Spurs might have spent all their energy climbing their way out of a hole. The opposite seemed to happen. If anything, the Silver and Black looked energized after the fantastic third quarter and only got more dominant in the fourth. Castle was finding Wembanyama for easy buckets inside, and when the young guard had to take a break, De’Aaron Fox took over the game. It didn’t hurt that the Blazers went through one of their turnover-filled droughts, but San Antonio’s defense was partly responsible for their poor play on that end. A close win felt possible even at the worst points, but it would have been hard to predict the Spurs running away with it, dropping 40 in the fourth, one shy of the amount of points they had in the entire first half. It was a terrific comeback that showcased how high San Antonio’s ceiling really is.
Game notes
- Wembanyama finished with an insane stat line in his return. He looked like himself on defense throughout and came alive on offense when he got to play off the ball more as a finisher instead of trying to create against smaller defenders with a lower center of gravity. Fantastic return for Wemby.
- Dylan Harper, the hero of Game 3, didn’t have it going on Sunday, but the two other guards did. Stephon Castle was limited by foul trouble but still managed to get 16 points and eight assists in 27 minutes while playing elite defense for stretches. De’Aaron Fox, seeing that the team needed him to look for his shot more aggressively, dropped 28 points in 17 shots and played almost 40 minutes, taking over when needed.
- It wasn’t just Harper who struggled off the bench. Luke Kornet and Carter Bryant, who were hugely important in Game 3, were not effective on Sunday. Harrison Barnes did well, but in a small role. And Keldon Johnson once again scored in single digits. The second unit wasn’t a major factor in the win.
- One possible reason for the struggles of some role players, apart from facing a deep opponent, might be due to experimentation by Mitch Johnson. Some of it has been forced by Wembanyama’s absence, but Mitch tried some strange lineups in the first half that simply didn’t work. He stuck with a more traditional rotation in the second half, and everyone seemed to feel more comfortable.
- After the Scoot Henderson and Dylan Harper verbal battle in Game 3, things got chippy between Stephon Castle and Deni Avdija. Castle put the ball in Avdija’s chest after scoring on him, the Blazers’ forward shoved him, Castle shoved him back, and then the two exchanged some heated words after being separated. The officials went with double technicals, and things didn’t escalate, but it’s clear that familiarity is breeding contempt between the two teams.
