圣安东尼奥马刺队前锋维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) (1) 与明尼苏达森林狼队前锋杰登·麦克丹尼尔斯 (Jaden McDaniels) (3) 争抢篮板。随后文班因肘击明尼苏达森林狼队中锋纳兹·里德 (Naz Reid) (11)(未在图中)被判二级恶意犯规,导致其在第四场比赛第二节被驱逐出场。

明尼阿波利斯——周五,当媒体获准进入标靶中心球馆 (Target Center) 更衣室时,维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 的衣柜早已被收拾干净。

这位马刺队的全明星中锋在西部半决赛第四场第二节初因肘击纳兹·里德 (Naz Reid) 被驱逐出场,只能在幕后观看剩余比赛。

最终结果——明尼苏达经过苦战以 114-109 击败马刺——足以将系列赛大比分扳成 2-2 平。

第五场比赛将于周二晚上 7 点在霜银中心球馆 (Frost Bank Center) 进行。

全明星后卫安东尼·爱德华兹 (Anthony Edwards) 砍下 36 分领衔森林狼队,该队五名首发球员得分全部上双。德阿隆·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 和迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 各为马刺队贡献 24 分,斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 也有 20 分入账。

比赛在第二节还剩 8 分 39 秒时发生转折,文班亚马在试图争抢防守篮板时肘击了里德。

经过录像回放,裁判判定其为二级恶意犯规,这意味着将被自动驱逐。文班亚马在出场 12 分钟内得到 4 分 4 个篮板后便提前回到了更衣室。

马刺几乎在没有他的情况下赢下了比赛。

在后卫三人组的带领下,马刺在第三节一度领先 8 分。直到第四节还剩 3 分 22 秒,哈珀完成转换进攻得分后,他们仍以 101-100 领先。

鲁迪·戈贝尔 (Rudy Gobert) 在比赛还剩 3 分 02 秒时面对卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet) 打成 2+1,帮助明尼苏达反超比分,此后森林狼再未落后。

以下是周五失利后的三大看点,这场失利也为周二高赌注的第五场对决埋下了伏笔:

1. 森林狼死里逃生

一方面,马刺在明尼阿波利斯的第三场比赛中如愿以偿,以 115-108 获胜并夺回了主场优势。

如果在文班亚马被驱逐的情况下还能赢下第四场,那简直是锦上添花。

可以公平地说,马刺错失了一个将森林狼逼入绝境的绝佳机会。与此同时,森林狼则躲过了一劫。

如果明尼苏达没能在第四节逆转缺少文班的马刺,他们将带着 1-3 的落后局面回到圣安东尼奥。

那样的劣势对明尼苏达来说恐怕是无法挽回的。

如果森林狼最终能逆转赢得系列赛,周五最后的三分钟将显得至关重要。

2. 焦点转向詹姆斯·琼斯

与所有恶意犯规一样,NBA 将对文班亚马的肘击动作进行审查,以确定是否需要进一步处罚。

这可能包括罚款,也可能包括禁赛。联盟也可能裁定周五的驱逐已是足够的惩罚。

这一决定完全由联盟负责纪律事务的执行副总裁詹姆斯·琼斯 (James Jones) 裁定。

一个有趣的巧合:琼斯曾是 2007 年菲尼克斯太阳队的一员,当时那支球队最有希望夺得 NBA 总冠军的机会,却因为阿马雷·斯塔德迈尔 (Amare Stoudemire) 和鲍里斯·迪奥 (Boris Diaw) 在西部半决赛第五场被禁赛而破灭。

那两人因在第四场比赛的场上冲突中离开替补席区域而被禁赛一场。

约翰逊 (Johnson) 坚称文班亚马不应该在第五场比赛被禁赛。

“完全没有主观意图,”约翰逊说道,“裁判根据动作的后果做出了判罚。但如果在此基础上再追加任何处罚,我认为那就太荒谬了。”

3. 爱德华兹闪耀,后卫群集体爆发

马刺的后卫“三头怪”几乎就要赢下比赛,但森林狼的单核后卫凭借一己之力阻止了这一切。

目前还无法确定爱德华兹的身体恢复到了几成。一位长期观察森林狼的评论员认为大约是 70%。

显而易见的是,爱德华兹很好地控制了自己的膝伤,在系列赛中依然保持着统治力。

在明尼阿波利斯的两场比赛中,爱德华兹 48 投 29 中,总计砍下 68 分。当他开启进攻模式时,表现最为出色,而周五文班亚马被驱逐后,他的进攻变得更加轻松。

随着系列赛移师圣安东尼奥,马刺能否重新限制住爱德华兹,将决定系列赛的走向。

3 Takeaways as Spurs lose after Wembanyama ejected

Image
San Antonio Spurs forward Victor Wembanyama (1) fights for a rebound with Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (3) before drawing a flagrant fowl charge by throwing an elbow to the face of Minnesota Timberwolves center Naz Reid (11), not pictured, leading to Wembanyama’s ejection in the 2nd quarter of Game 4.

MINNEAPOLIS — Victor Wembanyama’s locker had long been cleared of his belongings by the time the media was allowed into the Target Center locker room Friday.

Ejected from Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals due to an elbow thrown at Naz Reid early in the second quarter, the Spurs’ All-Star center had to watch the remainder of the game from behind the scenes.

The result — a 114-109 Minnesota victory the Timberwolves had to work hard to finish — was enough to even the series at two games apiece.

Game 5 is 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Frost Bank Center.

All-Star guard Anthony Edwards scored 36 points to lead the Timberwolves, who had all five starters in double figures. De’Aaron Fox and Dylan Harper each scored 24 points for the Spurs, who also got 20 from Stephon Castle.

The game changed with 8:39 remaining the second quarter, when Wembanyama clocked Reid with an elbow while trying to secure a defensive rebound.

Upon review, officials ruled it a flagrant-2 foul, which comes with an automatic ejection. Wembanyama hit the showers having scored four points with four rebounds in 12 minutes.

The Spurs nearly won without him.

With their threesome of guards leading the way, the Spurs took an eight-point edge in the third quarter. They still led 101-100 after Harper’s transition basket with 3:22 to go in the fourth quarter.

Rudy Gobert put Minnesota ahead for good with an and-1 basket over Luke Kornet with 3:02 remaining, and the Timberwolves never trailed again.

Here are three takeaways from Friday’s defeat, which sets up a high-stakes Game 5 on Tuesday:

1. Timberwolves dodged a bullet

On the one hand, the Spurs got what they came to Minneapolis for in Game 3, winning a 115-108 decision that restored home-court advantage to San Antonio.

A victory in Game 4 – with Wembanyama ejected to boot – would have been icing on the cake.

It is fair to say the Spurs missed a golden opportunity to put the Timberwolves against the ropes. The Wolves, meanwhile, dodged a massive bullet.

Had Minnesota not rallied in the fourth quarter against the Wemby-less Spurs, it would have sent the series back to San Antonio with the Wolves in a 3-1 hole.

That deficit probably would not have been survivable for Minnesota.

If the Timberwolves do come back to win the series, the final three minutes Friday will loom large.

2. All eyes on James Jones

As it does with all flagrant fouls, the NBA will review Wembanyama’s elbow to determine if further punishment is warranted.

That could include a fine. It could include a suspension. The league could rule that Friday’s ejection was punishment as warranted.

The decision is at the sole discretion of the league’s czar of discipline, executive vice president James Jones.

A fun fact: Jones was a member of the 2007 Phoenix Suns team, which had its best chance at an NBA championship ruined by suspensions to Amare Stoudemire and Boris Diaw in Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinals.

Those two were suspended for a game for leaving the bench area during an on-court altercation in Game 4.

Johnson was adamant Wembanyama did not deserve to be suspended for Game 5.

“There was zero intent,” Johnson said. “They (officials) did what they did because of the outcome of the play. But to have anything on top of that, I think would be ridiculous.”

3. Edwards shines as guards go off

The Spurs’ three-headed guard monster nearly did enough to get them the game. The Wolves’ one-headed guard monster did just enough to prevent that from happening.

There’s no telling how close to 100% Edwards is. One longtime Wolves observer pegged it at about 70%.

What’s clear is that Edwards is managing his bum knees well enough to still be dominant in the series.

In the two games in Minnesota, Edwards totaled 68 points on 29-of-48 shooting. He has been at his best when in attack mode, an effort made easier after Wembanyama got tossed Friday.

As the series shifts to San Antonio, much is riding on the Spurs’ ability to get Edwards back under control.
