在昨晚于俄克拉荷马城赢得抢七大战后，朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie) 回忆起在马刺队季后赛首轮淘汰波特兰开拓者队后，他驱车与球迷们一起鸣笛庆祝的场景。
“是的，我的意思是，我妻子曾对我说：‘你知道吗，他们都在按喇叭。’我是说，大家都在鸣笛，她说：‘市中心都在鸣笛庆祝。’我想我最好也去看看。其实之前我们赢球的时候我就想去看看，但我想，还是等我们赢下一个系列赛吧，然后我就可以去那儿，看看现场到底有多热闹。那真的太棒了，现场的气氛简直疯狂。我现在有点生自己的气，因为我现在也身处市中心，却没在现场和大家一起狂欢。但那股能量真的很棒，我爱我们的球迷。我们非常爱你们，对吧？我们爱你们。没有你们，我们走不到这一步。我们非常期待在圣安东尼奥和纽约的总决赛中见到你们。是的，没有你们，我们不可能走得这么远。也要向你们致敬，你们在这段旅程中和我们一样，扮演了同样重要的角色。”
迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 祝愿球迷们度过一个平安的夜晚：
迪伦说得太好了，圣安东尼奥的大家要注意安全！！
安全庆祝，共同狂欢

德阿隆·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 也对球迷们表达了赞美。
“这可能是你在任何体育运动中见过的最忠诚的球迷群体之一。作为一名德州人，我实际上去圣安东尼奥看过他们对阵迈阿密（热火）的总决赛，我亲眼见识过现场球迷的热情，也知道那里能有多震撼。我们每天都在不断进步，我们会把总冠军带回圣安东尼奥。”
马刺队在场上的凝聚力源于他们在场下的亲密关系，而他们的感激之情也延伸到了更多人身上。球迷并不是唯一受到致敬的支持力量。维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 表达了对格雷格·波波维奇 (Gregg Popovich) 的敬意，后者在第三场失利后曾来到更衣室，对全队发表了讲话。
迪伦·哈珀也表达了对波波的感激之情。这位“老大” (El Jefe) 直接与这位新秀后卫进行了交谈，哈珀认为这帮助他在第六场比赛中重新找回了专注度。在那场比赛中，他斩获18分、6个篮板和4次助攻。而在晋级之战中，他贡献了12分，其中包括一记关键的三分球，帮助马刺队锁定了胜局，顺利晋级NBA总决赛。
马刺队将于周三迎战纽约尼克斯队，这是他们十二年来首次重返总决赛舞台。马刺与尼克斯的总决赛对决让人不禁回想起1999年，当时两队在总决赛相遇，马刺队夺得了建队历史上的首个NBA总冠军。巧合的是，1999年的那次系列赛也是尼克斯队上一次一路杀入NBA总决赛。

Open Thread: Spurs shoutout their fans after claiming the Western Conference Finals
After last night’s Game 7 victory in Oklahoma City, Julian Champagnie reminisced about honking and driving with the fans after the Spurs elimintaed the Portland Trail Blazers in the first round of playoffs.
“Yeah, I mean, my wife had told me she was like, ‘you know, they honk,’ I mean, they honk, she’s like, ‘they honk downtown,’ I might as well go see it. I want to go see it earlier when we won, but I figured, let’s win a series, and then I can go down there and kind of just see what’s going on, but it was great. The energy is crazy. I’m, I’m, I’m a little pissed at me, not over there right now, and see what’s going on, because I’m in downtown right now too. But energy is great, and I love the fans. We love you guys to them, right? We love you guys. We don’t go this far without you guys. We’re looking forward to seeing you guys in the finals in San Antonio and in New York, but yeah, we don’t get this far out, you guys. Shout out to y’all too. Y’all have just as much of a part in this as we do.”
Dylan Harper wished the fans a safe night:
Dylan said it best, be safe out there San Antonio!!
Celebrate safe, celebrate together

De’Aaron Fox also had some kind words for the fans.
“Probably one of the most loyal fan bases that you’ll ever be around in any sport. And me being from Texas, I’ve actually gone to a Finals game in San Antonio when they played Miami, I’m seeing that the crowd can be like seeing how loud it can get. It’s just we’re continueing to get better every day and we’re bring a championship back to San Antonio.”
The Spurs, whose cohesiveness on the court stems from their relationships off the court, branched out in their gratitude, The fans weren’t the only ones called out for their support. Victor Wembanyama shared some admiration Gregg Popovich, who visited the locker room after the Game 3 loss and spoke to the team.
Dylan Harper also shared gratitude for Pop. El Jefe spoke directly to the rookie guard and is credited by Harper for helping him regain refocued for Game 6. He scored 18 points, with 6 rebounds, and four assists. In the closeout game, he scored 12 points including a clutch 3-pointer that helped the Spurs secure the win, advancing them to the NBA Finals.
Spurs will host the New York Knicks on Wednesday in their first Finals appearance in a dozen years. The Spurs/Knicks Finals harkens back to 1999, when the two met and the Spurs won their first NBA Championship. Coincidentally, that 1999 series was the last time the Knicks made it all the way to the NBA Finals.
