2026年6月3日，星期三，在圣安东尼奥的霜冻银行中心进行的NBA总决赛第一场比赛中，圣安东尼奥马刺队前锋朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie)（30号）与纽约尼克斯队后卫兰德里·沙梅特 (Landry Shamet)（44号）望向球场。
朱利安·尚帕尼带着极大的渴望开启了他的总决赛之旅，他非常乐意在面对家乡球队时扮演“反派”角色。
“我有许多朋友都是纽约球迷，”这位马刺前锋说道，“我很乐意去破坏他们的计划。”
在周三晚上以95-105不敌尼克斯的比赛上半场中，尚帕尼似乎正一步步将这一设想变为现实，但他的计划在下半场化为了泡影。
这位布鲁克林本土球员在下半场4投0中之前，上半场三分球6投5中，砍下了他全场16分中的15分。
但尚帕尼并非这支西部冠军队伍中唯一在下半场手感冰凉的球员。马刺在半场休息后，在三分线外总共只有19投2中。
整场比赛，他们在三分线外43投11中，命中率仅为25.6%，而他们此前季后赛的三分命中率高达36.5%。
马刺主教练米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson)：“不管投进与否，全场16次助攻绝不是我们的篮球风格。……这完全没有达到我们的标准，与我们习惯的打法和球风相去甚远。” pic.twitter.com/cQ28mY3OFp

“我们错失了一些不错的好机会，”马刺主教练米奇·约翰逊说道，“在某些回合中，我们本可以消耗更多的时间，在防守端给他们施加更多消耗。我把这些投篮仅仅归结为‘投篮’。这是个坏球还是好球？我不太清楚，但它就只是一个投篮。作为一支团队，我们或许可以在那些回合中更‘贪婪’一点，去创造出更好的机会。”
在上周六西部决赛抢七大战111-103击败俄克拉荷马雷霆的比赛中，尚帕尼砍下20分并命中6记三分，而今天上半场他的手感依然热得发烫。他单场命中的5记三分球，在马刺队史总决赛单场三分命中数榜上排名第三，仅次于丹尼·格林 (Danny Green) 的7记和加里·尼尔 (Gary Neal) 的6记。他表示：
“我只是在顺应对手防守给出的机会去出手，”他说道。
尚帕尼表示，尼克斯在下半场并没有采取任何不同的防守策略来限制马刺。纽约在第三节抹平了14分的落后差距，并在比赛尾声阶段打出一波11-0的攻势锁定胜局，迎来了他们季后赛的12连胜。
“老实说，我真心觉得我们在传导球方面可以做得更好，”尚帕尼说道，“在上半场，我们彼此之间的联系非常、非常紧密。”
但半场结束后情况却并非如此。在本场比赛之前，马刺在季后赛中场均能送出25.1次助攻，而本场比赛他们最终仅有16次助攻，其中下半场更是只有惨淡的5次。
“全场比赛只拿到16次助攻绝不是我们想要的结果，”达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 说道，他本场比赛状态低迷，13投仅3中，三分球4投0中，仅得到7分。“显而易见，我们希望继续通过不断的传导球轮转来获得三分出手机会，同时我们也必须把球投进。”
约翰逊表示：“不管投进与否，16次助攻绝不是我们的篮球风格。这完全没有达到我们的标准，与我们习惯的打法和球风相去甚远。”
虽然尚帕尼并没有将此归功于纽约的防守，但教练迈克·布朗 (Mike Brown) 表示，尼克斯在下半场确实重点限制了这位马刺神射手。
“我们必须不断去干扰尚帕尼，”布朗说道，“尚帕尼在上半场投进了5个三分球，下半场我们对他的扑防做得更好，试图将他逼离三分线。”
德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell) 本场比赛表现罕见失常，全场11投4中，其中三分球6投1中仅得9分。他预测马刺在周五晚上的第二场比赛中会有更好的投篮表现。
“我们得到了不错的出手机会，”他说道，“我们会表现得好得多。下一场比赛我们会打得更加从容。我们有些出手显得有些仓促，但我认为我们在三分线外确实获得了高质量的机会。拥有这么多出色的射手，我们深信这些球终会应声落网。”
马刺后卫德文·瓦塞尔：“我们深知必须控制好篮板球。在这个系列赛中，他们非常喜欢冲抢篮板。所以我们不能只在半场比赛里去拼抢。我们必须帮助文班，必须帮助内线的个子球员们。这将会是这个系列赛中至关重要的一部分。” pic.twitter.com/MUwQ0BaliS

与尚帕尼类似，新秀迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 在下半场也陷入了挣扎。他在首节砍下两位数得分，成为过去25年来首位在总决赛首节便得分上双的新秀，但下半场他仅得到自己16分中的4分。自1996-97赛季以来，他在首节斩获的10分在所有总决赛新秀的单节得分榜上排名第三。
“我必须保持侵略性，”他说道，“我必须继续踩紧油门，全力以赴。”
约翰逊否认了马刺在经历与雷霆的艰苦系列赛后可能出现疲劳的说法。
“我不认为这是因为疲劳，”这位主教练说道，“我相信球员们有时确实会感到累，但我并不觉得有谁的表现是因为疲劳而走样。我们只是需要更加敏锐、执行力更强，并继续去顺应比赛，而不是在某些时刻与比赛较劲，坚持用正确的方式打球。”

Why Spurs struggled from 3-point range in second half against Knicks
San Antonio Spurs forward Julian Champagnie (30) and New York Knicks guard Landry Shamet (44) look down the court during Game 1 of the NBA Finals at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, on Wednesday, June 3, 2026.
Julian Champagnie entered the NBA Finals eager to play the villain role against his hometown team.
“I have a lot of friends who are New York fans,” the Spurs forward said. “I would love to spoil their plans.”
Champagnie seemed well on his way to making it happen in the first half of Game 1, but his plans went awry in the second half of the 105-95 loss to the Knicks on Wednesday night.
The Brooklyn native scored 15 of his 16 points in the first half on 5 of 6 from 3-point range before going 0 for 4 in the second half.
But Champagnie wasn’t the only member of the Western Conference champs to go cold after halftime. The Spurs made just 2 of 19 from distance after the break.
For the game, they shot 25.6% (11 of 43) from beyond the arc after entering the game shooting 36.5%.
Spurs coach Mitch Johnson: “Missing shots or not, 16 assists for us is not our brand of basketball. … That’s something that is not up to the standard, anywhere close to what we’re used to and how we play.” pic.twitter.com/cQ28mY3OFp

“We missed some good shots,” Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said. “There will be some possessions we could have worked the clock more, worked them more defensively. I kind of refer to them as just shots. Is it a bad shot, a good shot? I don’t really know, but it’s just a shot. We probably could be a little more greedy on that possession to get something better as a group.”
Champagnie was red hot in the first half after scoring 20 points and hitting six 3s in the 111-103 Game 7 victory over Oklahoma City in the conference finals on Saturday. His five 3s were the third most in a Finals game by a Spurs player, trailing only Danny Green’s seven and Gary Neal’s six. He
“I was just taking what the defense gave me,” he said.
Champagnie said the Knicks didn’t do anything different defensively to shut the Spurs down in the second half. New York overcame a 14-point deficit in the third quarter by scoring 11 unanswered points to close the game for their 12th consecutive postseason victory.
“I just think we could do a better job with moving the ball around a little bit, honestly and truly,” Champagnie said. “In the first half, we were really, really connected.”
But that wasn’t the case after halftime. The Spurs finished with just 16 assists, including only five in the second half, after entering the game averaging 25.1 in the playoffs.
“Us ending the ending the game with only 16 assists is not something we want,” said De’Aaron Fox, who had just seven points on 3 of 13 from the field and 0 of 4 from deep. “We want to continue to have (our threes taken) in rotation obviously and we have to make shots as well.”
Said Johnson, "Missing shots or not, 16 assists for us is not our brand of basketball. That’s something that is not up to the standard, anywhere close to what we’re used to and how we play.”
While Champagnie didn’t give any credit to New York’s defense, coach Mike Brown said the Knicks focused on slowing the Spurs sharpshooter down in the second half.
“We have to keep getting to Champagnie,” Brown said. “Champagnie had five threes in the first half, and we did a better job of closing out to him and trying to get him off the three-point line.”
Devin Vassell, who had a rare sub-par game in the playoffs with nine points on 4 of 11 from the field and 1 of 6 from distance, predicted the Spurs will shoot better in Game 2 Friday night.
“We were getting good looks,” he said. “We’ll be a lot better. We’ll be a lot more comfortable next game. We rushed some of our shots. But I think we had quality looks on our threes. With all the shooters we have, we’re confident those are going to go down.”
Spurs guard Devin Vassell: “We know we have to control the boards. In this series, they like to crash the glass. So it can’t just be one half where we’re crashing the glass. We have to help Vic. We have to help the bigs down there. That’s going to be a huge part of the series.” pic.twitter.com/MUwQ0BaliS

Like Champagnie, rookie Dylan Harper also struggled in the second half, scoring just four of his 16 points in the second half after becoming the first rookie to score in double figures in the opening quarter of a Finals game in the last 25 years. His 10 points in the first period were the third most in any quarter by a rookie in the Finals since 1996-97.
“I just got to keep on staying aggressive,” he said. “I got to keep my foot on the gas.”
Johnson dismissed the notion that the Spurs might have been tired after their grueling series with the Thunder.
“I don’t think it was fatigue,” the coach said. “I’m sure guys got tired at times, but I didn’t feel like anyone’s performance was based on fatigue. We just need to be sharper and execute better and continue to work the game and not fight it at times and play the right way.”
