马刺在首节打出35-22的强势开局，并在第三节打出压倒性的32-13（包括一波20-0的高潮），从而在第六场取得一场大胜，将系列赛拖入周六晚上的第七场决战（NBA / Peacock，中部夏令时间晚7:00）。圣安东尼奥能够赢下比赛，得益于他们珍惜每一次球权、减少了容易失误的坏习惯，并在关键时刻将雷霆的三分命中数几乎翻倍。马刺在替补得分上也出人意料地以46-38占据优势，这一趋势对周六晚上的决战来说是个好兆头。维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama)（28分、10个篮板、3次盖帽和2次抢断）仅在第一节就追平了他在第五场全场的4次运动战进球数，他带领的马刺从头领先到尾。尽管雷霆首发阵容在外线手感挣扎，但凯森·华莱士 (Cason Wallace) 和亚历克斯·卡鲁索 (Alex Caruso) 带领替补席打出了顽强的反击，在马刺下半场爆发前的大约两节半时间里，避免了比分被彻底拉开。
文班亚马和斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle)（17分、9次助攻和5个篮板）得到了新秀迪伦·哈珀（18分、6个篮板和4次助攻）的关键助力。作为两位更受瞩目的队友身边的“第三得分点”，哈珀今晚打出了自系列赛第一场以来最好的一场比赛。德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell)（12分和2次盖帽）和朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie)（10分和6个篮板）提供了及时的外线火力和令人窒息的防守，帮助马刺打出了强势开局。卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 在有限的出场时间里提供了极强的防守压迫感，而凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson) 在零星的上场时间里也表现出色（9分和3个篮板）。
谢伊·吉尔杰斯-亚历山大 (Shai Gilgeous-Alexander)（15分和4次助攻）整场比赛都被限制得很好，而以赛亚·哈尔滕施泰因 (Isaiah Hartenstein)（10分和5个篮板）以及切特·霍姆格伦 (Chet Holmgren)（10分和11个篮板）的贡献则沦为了“空砍”。华莱士（11分）和卡鲁索（7分）在比赛早期为雷霆提供了替补火力。杰伦·威廉姆斯 (Jalen Williams) 自第二场比赛以来首次复出，但未能对比赛产生实质性影响。
马刺开局打出一波9-2的高潮，迫使马克·戴格诺特 (Mark Daigneault) 在开场不到90秒时就请求了暂停。在文班亚马和卡斯尔拿到极佳开局的同时，瓦塞尔和尚帕尼也完成了外线投射的任务，联手投进3记三分。吉尔杰斯-亚历山大前两次出手全部命中，雷霆的防守也在随后的几分钟内成功将马刺阻绝在禁区之外。考虑到此前几场比赛刺刀见红的肉搏战性质，两队在首节前10分钟里总共“仅”被吹罚了寥寥几次犯规，这实在令人有些意外。正如他们开局时的表现一样，文班亚马和卡斯尔在首节末段联手打出一波5-0，帮助圣安东尼奥以35-22领先结束第一节。
凭借麦凯恩 (McCain) 和华莱士的得分，雷霆迅速将分差缩小到只剩6分。马刺的新秀后卫哈珀则贡献了自系列赛前两场以来单场最高的得分。文班亚马连续两次跳投命中，帮助马刺重新将领先优势扩大到两位数。半场结束前，比赛的身体对抗强度呈爆发式升级，瓦塞尔和布莱恩特在防守端表现极其强硬，为马刺筑起了坚固的防线。雷霆在半场末段找回了投篮手感，展现出反扑势头，将分差缩小到7分。
整个第三节，马刺继续将雷霆球员死死顶出他们的舒适区，这似乎让吉尔杰斯-亚历山大有些心态失衡。而瓦塞尔、尚帕尼和哈珀及时且精准的投篮，帮助圣安东尼奥将领先优势重新扩大到15分。在一波20-0的高潮中（期间文班亚马得到了充足的休息时间），哈珀的表现最为抢眼，彻底点燃了冰霜银行中心（Frost Bank Center）主场球迷的热情。霍姆格伦的一记上篮终于打破了雷霆长达7分多钟的得分荒，马刺以92-66领先进入第四节。
比赛观察
- 第二场和第六场在裁判吹罚尺度和身体对抗强度上的巨大差异，应该成为亚当·肖华 (Adam Silver) 今年夏天真正关注的焦点，而不是去操心乐透抽签的事。（没错，我今晚在反复敲下“文班亚马”、“卡斯尔”和“哈珀”这些名字时，心里就是这么想的）。
- 文班亚马——即使在职业生涯的这个阶段，他的罚球稳定性也已经超过了巅峰时期的蒂姆·邓肯 (Tim Duncan) 和大卫·罗宾逊 (David Robinson)。
- 必须向助理教练拉沙德·刘易斯 (Rashard Lewis) 表示由衷的感谢，是他让布莱恩特为这些季后赛轮次的对抗做好了准备。
- 听到卡梅隆·安东尼 (Carmelo Anthony) 极力敦促马刺的轮换球员们去“展现出狠劲”并“拼抢每一个地板球”，感觉非常奇妙。
- 在进入第五场之前，我对25-26赛季马刺做出的（非常主观的）历史对比模板包括：1990年的公牛（抢七负于底特律）、1998年的湖人（4场遭爵士横扫）、2005年的太阳（5场负于马刺）、2011年的雷霆（5场负于小牛）。
- 本场经典回合 #1：首节末段，瓦塞尔在防守雷霆一次2打1的快攻中表现极其出色——他正面延阻了吉尔杰斯-亚历山大的上篮尝试，随后又封盖掉了卡鲁索的补篮。紧接着，哈珀在进攻端投中一记振奋人心的三分球，将比分改写为26-17。
- 本场经典回合 #2：上半场末段，圣安东尼奥展现了一次“团队篮球（Beautiful Game）”式的极致运转球：哈珀沿底线将球传给底角的卡特·布莱恩特，布莱恩特再传给左侧翼的福克斯 (Fox)，福克斯又转移给右侧翼的文班亚马。这位超级巨星中锋随后以慢动作般优雅的节奏突破到禁区，抛投命中。
- 本场经典回合 #3：第三节刚开场不久，在一次成功的防守后，文班亚马抢下长篮板，并长传给在禁区附近飞速快下的卡斯尔。卡斯尔随后找到了左侧底线的尚帕尼，后者稳稳命中底角三分。
- 本场经典回合 #4：第三节那波20-0的狂潮，看起来与马刺在第三场开局阶段打出的那波短暂的15-0完全不同。
比赛战报
比赛一开局，尚帕尼就投中了本场首记三分。就像第四场一样，哈尔滕施泰因迅速用连续两次抛投予以回应。文班亚马在两次三分命中之间，还送给麦凯恩一记大帽。卢·多尔特 (Lu Dort) 投中了雷霆本场的第一记三分。文班亚马强硬地顶着哈尔滕施泰因一路突破到禁区深处，随后轻松完成一记后仰跳投。吉尔杰斯-亚历山大前两次出手全部命中。随后马刺开始执迷于外线投射，进攻也不出意料地陷入停滞。关键时刻，瓦塞尔连续命中两记三分，帮助马刺领先5分。值得注意的是，吉尔杰斯-亚历山大在两次投篮偏出后并没有倒地。福克斯和约翰逊的发挥帮助马刺保持了足够的领先优势。随着文班亚马的后撤步三分命中以及卡斯尔迎着防守投进的干拔中投，圣安东尼奥在首节结束时取得了13分的领先。
第二节伊始，麦凯恩的转换三分帮助雷霆将分差缩小到10分。马刺打得十分耐心，连续造成雷霆三次全队犯规，而哈珀的三分球则确保了他们的领先优势维持在两位数。随后华莱士连续命中两记三分，帮助雷霆将分差缩小到仅剩6分。哈珀信心十足地投中一记底线跳投，随后又顶着哈尔滕施泰因强硬上篮得手。他的组织策动让卡斯尔和福克斯在这一节的大部分时间里得到了宝贵的喘息机会。杰林·威廉姆斯 (Jaylin Williams)（重240磅）在一次掩护中被布莱恩特（重220磅）直接“撞翻在地”。随后布莱恩特在进攻端用一记势大力沉的扣篮予以回应，而瓦塞尔则在一次火药味十足的攻防回合中在篮下封盖了霍姆格伦。雷霆随后打出一波10-5的小高潮，在半场结束时将比分追至53-60。
易边再战，瓦塞尔投中了个人本场第四记三分，而哈尔滕施泰因则再次用抛投还以颜色。紧接着，文班亚马在防守吉尔杰斯-亚历山大的一次打2+1时，被吹罚了一次颇具争议的干扰球。不过，文班亚马随后在防守端表现极其出色，成功将雷霆阻绝在禁区之外。尽管如此，霍姆格伦和哈尔滕施泰因还是通过两次补篮得手，让雷霆始终保持在个位数的分差之内。随后，卡斯尔在禁区内使出了一次漂亮的上下步动作，成功打成2+1；紧接着哈珀也投中了一记足以让詹姆斯·哈登 (James Harden) 感到自豪的后撤步跳投。吉尔杰斯-亚历山大在一次防守犯规中击中了哈珀的头部，但裁判并未对此进行录像回放以确定是否升级判罚。信心大增的哈珀在下一个进攻回合中再次造成犯规，他顶着多名雷霆防守球员强行突破上篮。当圣安东尼奥完成这波20-0的狂潮时，雷霆在今晚终结系列赛的机会已经彻底破灭。

San Antonio vs. Oklahoma City, Final Score: Spurs extend series to Game 7 with dominant 118-91 win
The Spurs rattled Oklahoma City with a cogent 35-22 first quarter and a convincing 32-13 third quarter (including a 20-0 run) to secure a resounding game 6 win and force game 7 on Saturday night (NBA / Peacock 7:00 PM CDT). San Antonio did it by honoring its possessions, limiting its penchant for turnovers, and nearly doubling up the Thunder from three in the minutes that mattered. The Spurs also had the unexpected bench scoring advantage (46-38) in a trend that could bode well for Saturday evening. Victor Wembanyama (28 points, 10 rebounds, 3 blocks, and 2 steals) matched his four field goal total from game 5 in the first quarter alone and his Spurs led from start-to-finish. While the Thunder starters struggled with their outside shooting, Cason Wallace and Alex Caruso led a spirited backup effort to prevent a runaway over 2 1/2 quarters before San Antonio’s second-half detonation.
Wembanyama and Castle (17 points, 9 assists, and 5 rebounds) received a crucial boost from rookie Dylan Harper (18 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists), who had his best game since game 1 tonight as the third banana to his more heralded teammates. Devin Vassell (12 points and 2 blocks) and Julian Champagnie (10 points and 6 rebounds) supplied timely shooting and suffocating defense to aid San Antonio’s impressive start. Carter Bryant supplied a healthy dose of defensive pressure in his limited minutes, and Keldon Johnson performed well (9 points and 3 rebounds) in his spot minutes.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (15 points and 4 assists) was kept contained throughout the game with contributions from Isaiah Hartenstein (10 points and 5 rebounds) and Chet Holmgren (10 points and 11 rebounds) being empty calories. Wallace (11 points) and Caruso (7 points) provided an early bench boost for Oklahoma City. Jalen Williams returned to action for the first time since game two, but did not significantly impact the game
A 9-2 opening burst caused Mark Daigneault to call for time within 90 seconds. While Wembanyama and Castle got off to good starts, Vassell and Champagnie held up their end of the outside shooting bargain with three combined triples. Gilgeous-Alexander connected on his first two shots, and the Thunder defense kept the Spurs out of the lane over several minutes. Given the very close-quarters combat nature of the previous games, it was surprising that the teams combined for a ‘only’ handful of fouls in 10 minutes of action. Just as they had started the period, Wembanyama and Castle pieced together a 5-0 run to get San Antonio to 35-22.
Behind McCain and Wallace’s scoring, Oklahoma City closed the gap with the Spurs to six quickly. San Antonio’s rookie guard Harper supplied his most points since the first two games of the series. A pair of jumpers by Wembanyama pushed the lead back out to double-digits. The physicality ratcheted leaps-and-bounds late in the half with Vassell and Bryant instigating a good amount of San Antonio’s defensive presence. The Thunder threateningly found their shooting touch late in the stanza – bringing their deficit down to seven.
The Spurs continued to nudge the Thunder players well away from their comfortable spots throughout a third quarter that seemingly rattled Gilgeous-Alexander, and timely and accurate shooting from Vassell, Champagnie, and Harper increased the San Antonio advantage back to 15. During a 20-0 run coinciding with a good amount of minutes for Wembanyama to rest, Harper figured the most prominently in hastening the Frost Bank Center crowd to a froth. A Holmgren lay-up broke a 7+ minute Thunder drought and the Spurs went to the fourth up 92-66.
Observations
- The stark differences in officiating and physicality between games 2 and 6 should be a real focus of Adam Silver’s this summer instead of lottery business. (yes, I’m typing this as I typed the words ‘Wembanyama,’ ‘Castle,’ and ‘Harper’ numerous times tonight).
- Wembanyama – even at this stage of his career, is a more consistent free throw shooter than Tim Duncan and David Robinson at their peaks.
- A debt of gratitude is owed to Assistant Coach Rashard Lewis for getting Bryant ready for these playoff rounds.
- Very strange to hear Carmelo Anthony imploring the Spurs’ rotation players to ‘deliver the nastiness’ and ‘get the hustle plays.’
- The (very subjective) 25-26 Spurs comps that I had going into game 5: 1990 Bulls (lost to Detroit in 7), 1998 Lakers (lost to Jazz in 4), 2005 Suns (lost to Spurs in 5), 2011 Thunder (lost to Mavs in 5).
- Sequence of the Game #1: Late in the first quarter, Vassell admirably defended a 2-on-1 OKC fastbreak – standing up Gilgeous-Alexander on his lay-up attempt and then knocking away Caruso’s tip try. Harper encouragingly hit a three at the other end to make it 26-17.
- **Sequence of the Game #**2: San Antonio showcased a ’Beautiful Game’ possession late in the opening half that saw Harper flick a pass baseline to Carter Bryant in the corner to Fox on the left wing to Wembanyama on the right wing. The superstar center drove slow-motion into the lane for a floater.
- Sequence of the Game #3: After a well-defended possession moments into the third, Wembanyama snared the long carom, and fed a streaking Castle near the paint. Castle found Champagnie on the left baseline for a corner three.
- Sequence of the Game #4: That 20-0 run in the third quarter looked way different than the tempporarly 15-0 run San Antonio started game 3 with.
Game Rundown
Champagnie saw his first three go down from the tip. Just like in game 4, Hartenstein responded with two floaters in succession. Wembanyama sandwiched two threes around a block on McCain. Lu Dort hit Oklahoma City’s first three. Wembanyama assertively drove Hartenstein deep into the lane and hit an effortless fadeaway. Gilgeous-Alexander knocked down his first two shots. San Antonio started settling for threes and their offense unsurprisingly stalled out. Vassell’s pair of triples put the Spurs up five. Gilgeous-Alexander noticeably didn’t fall to the ground on two misses. Fox and Johnson helped keep the Spurs’ sufficiently ahead. Wembanyama’s stepback three and Castle’s shotclock beating jumper helped put San Antonio up 13 at the end of one.
McCain’s transition three got Oklahoma City to within 10 to start the second period. San Antonio diligently drew three team fouls on the Thunder, and Harper’s three kept their advantage in double digits. Wallace’s pair of threes brought the Thunder within six. Harper confidently knocked down a baseline jumper and powered a lay-up over Hartenstein. His playmaking allowed Castle and Fox to get a breather over much of the quarter. Jaylin Williams (240 lb) got ‘laid out’ by Bryant (220 lb) on a pick. Bryant responded with an emphatic slam at the other end, and Vassell turned away Holmgren at the rim during a heated sequence. The Thunder put together a 10-5 run to make it a 60-53 game at the half.
Coming out of the break, Vassell hit his fourth three, which was answered by yet another Hartenstein floater. Shortly after, Wembanyama was whistled for a questionable goaltend on a Gilgeous-Alexander and-1. Wembanyama excellently kept Oklaoma City out of the paint. Holmgren and Harteinstein did tally two tip-ins to keep the Thunder in striking distance. Castle executed a nifty stepthrough move in the paint to draw an and-1, and Harper followed that with a stepback that would have made James Harden proud. Gilgeous-Alexander made contact with Harper’s head on a foul, but it was not reviewed for any further escalation. An emboldened Harper drew another foul on the next possession by driving it through several Thunder defenders. By the time San Antonio completed its 20-0 run, Oklahoma City essentially lost its chance to close out the series tonight.
