别指望马刺队中锋卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet) 会在短期内转型为空间型五号位。
在上周季后赛首轮第二场马刺 120-108 击败波特兰的比赛中，科内特投中了自 2024 年 4 月 9 日（当时效力于波士顿）以来的首记三分球。他也因此成为自 2009 年的乔希·鲍威尔 (Josh Powell) 以来，首位在常规赛零三分出手、却在季后赛命中远投的球员。
这让人回想起他职业生涯早期拉开空间的日子。在效力于纽约、芝加哥和波士顿的前四个赛季中，他场均出手 3.3 次三分，命中率为 32.8%。
但科内特在周四训练后表示，对阵开拓者队时的那记远投只是个意外，并不代表某种趋势。他将继续通过掩护和顺下冲击篮筐来获取大部分分数，而拉开空间的任务则交给维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 和其他人。
“我一直想成为一名三分射手，现在不再是了确实让我感到遗憾，但我的终极职责是帮助球队，而不是从中索取我想要的东西，”科内特说道，“所以我不得不接受这一点。我非常怀念投三分的日子，但你上场终究是为了帮球队赢球。因此，我必须把三分球搁置一旁，或者把它放在合适的位置。”
科内特表示，对阵开拓者时出手的时机恰到好处。
“我并没有被严令禁止投篮，更多的是我会努力让自己处于能帮助球队获胜、并做我认为最正确的事的位置上，”他说道，“当时的情况和那个回合恰好发展到了那一步，根据对方的防守方式和其他因素，我觉得那个出手机会正合适。”
科内特模仿航海员使用望远镜的动作，庆祝了这记罕见的三分球。
“就像探险家，杰克·斯派罗 (Jack Sparrow) 那种感觉，”他说道，“就像把它拉开，然后，对，观察远方。”

Spurs’ Luke Kornet opens up about not shooting 3s anymore
Don’t bank on Spurs center Luke Kornet becoming a stretch five anytime soon.
In the Spurs’ 120-108 win over Portland last week in Game 2 of the first round of the playoffs, Kornet hit his first 3-pointer since April 9, 2024 when he was with Boston, making him the first player since Josh Powell in 2009 to sink a shot from beyond the arc in the playoffs after finishing the regular season without attempting one.
It was a throwback to the days early in his career when he spread the floor. Over his first four seasons while playing for New York, Chicago and Boston, he shot 32.8% from 3-point range on 3.3 attempts per game.
But Kornet indicated after practice Thursday that his shot from deep against the Blazers was an anomaly and not the beginning of a trend, that he will continue to get most of his points by screening and rolling to the basket, leaving Victor Wembanyama and others to stretch the floor.
“I’ve always wanted to be, and it hurts me that I’m not anymore (a 3-point shooter), but my ultimate job is to help my team more than it is to get what I want out of it,” Kornet said. “And so I’ve kind of had to come to accept that. I miss launching threes a lot, but you’re ultimately there to help your team win. So I’ve kind of had to put that aside (shooting 3s) or put it in its place.”
Kornet said the timing was right for him to attempt one against the Trail Blazers.
“I’ve haven’t been sworn off of taking them as much as it is I’m going to try to put myself in positions to help us succeed and win and do what I think is best,” he said. “And the situation, the possession just worked out that way, how they were guarding and all that type of stuff to where I felt like that opportunity was just the right one then.”
Kornet celebrated his rare 3 by mimicking a seafarer using a telescope.
“It was like an explorer, Jack Sparrow type of thing,” he said. “It was like expanding it out and then, yeah, looking.”
