2026年6月4日，星期四，在圣安东尼奥霜银中心举行的总决赛首场比赛中，圣安东尼奥马刺以95-105不敌纽约尼克斯。赛后的新闻发布会上，马刺前锋凯尔登·约翰逊回答记者提问。
马刺前锋凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson) 有一个行之有效的方法，来消化他在NBA总决赛第一场中所经历的那种令人失望的表现。
“我回家的路程很长，所以这让我有时间思考一些事情，清空思绪，”在谈到从霜银中心到他位于博尔尼（Boerne）牧场的45分钟车程时，他说道。
在周三晚上以95-105不敌纽约尼克斯的比赛中，这位NBA年度最佳第六人在出场了季后赛生涯新低的8分钟里，4投1中仅得3分，这确实有太多需要他去消化。
周四在霜银中心接受媒体采访时，约翰逊明确表示，他已经准备好翻过这一页，忘掉自己七年职业生涯首次季后赛之旅中的又一次低迷表现。
“当你进入这样的系列赛时，一旦比赛结束，你会在当晚消化它，然后我们今天回来进行录像分析和总结，”他说道，“接着你就必须放下它。你不能让它影响到后面的比赛。你不能过度兴奋，也不能过于低落。你必须努力保持心态平稳。
“我会纠正这些错误，明天重新投入战斗。”
约翰逊在进入总决赛首战前其实保持着不错的势头。在上周六西部决赛抢七大战中，马刺以111-103击败俄克拉荷马雷霆，约翰逊全场得到11分，其中有8分是在关键的第四节拿下的。
凯尔登·约翰逊谈到昨晚首战仅出场8分钟：
“这并没有太困扰我。我们现在打的是总决赛。为了赢球，无论需要我们做什么，我们都会去做。我们的教练会把我们放在最容易取得成功的位置上。我百分之百，甚至百分之一百一十地相信这一点。” pic.twitter.com/qG1IsmTYTo— Spurs Nation (@ Spurs_Nation) June 4, 2026
但在佩科姆中心（Paycom Center）的强势收尾未能延续到霜银中心，在这场比赛中，他未能抢下一个篮板，也未能送出一次助攻。
在打满82场常规赛期间，约翰逊在场均23.3分钟内可以贡献13.2分、5.4个篮板和1.4次助攻；而在已经进行的19场季后赛中，他场均出场时间降至18.1分钟，数据也仅有8.4分、3.2个篮板和0.9次助攻。
“我的职责就是上场去做好表现，帮助我的队友赢球，”他说道，“我信任我的每一位队友。所以，说到底，如果我不在场上，我知道顶替我上场的兄弟也一定会完成任务。就像我上场时一样。8分钟的出场时间并没有太困扰我。我们打的是总决赛。为了赢球，无论需要我们做什么，我们都会去做。我们的教练会把我们放在最容易取得成功的位置上。我百分之百，甚至百分之一百一十地相信这一点。”
约翰逊的队友们深信他会在周五晚上的第二场比赛中迎来反弹。
“KJ会没事的，”前锋德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell) 说道。他在第一场比赛中自己的表现也有些失常，11投4中，三分球6投1中，仅得到9分。
“他是这里效力时间最长的球员，”瓦塞尔补充道，“他是这支球队的灵魂。他只需要对自己有信心，对自己的打法有信心，在防守端像牛皮糖一样缠住对手，保持侵略性，拼抢篮板，并相信自己的付出。KJ是一名不可思议的球员。我毫不怀疑他会打出好表现。”

Spurs’ Keldon Johnson trying ‘not to linger’ on poor Game 1 outing
San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson answers questions during a news conference at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Thursday, June 4, 2026, following a 105-95 loss to the New York Knicks in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.
Spurs forward Keldon Johnson has a sure-fire way to process the kind of disappointing performance he suffered through in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.
“I got a long drive home, so it gives you time to think about some things, clear your mind,” he said of his 45-minute journey from the Frost Bank Center to his ranch in Boerne.
The NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year had a lot digest after scoring just three points on 1-of-4 shooting from the field in a playoff-low eight minutes in the 105-95 loss to the New York Knicks on Wednesday night.
Speaking to reporters at the Frost Bank Center on Thursday, Johnson made it clear he’s ready to turn the page on his latest subpar outing in the first postseason of his seven-year career.
“When you get in a series like this, once the game is over, you process it that night and then we come back and we break it down today,” he said. "And then you got to let it go. You can’t let it linger on to other games. You can’t get too high, you can’t get too low. You got to try and stay as even-keeled as possible.
“I’ll correct those mistakes and be back at it tomorrow.”
Johnson entered Game 1 with some momentum after scoring eight of his 11 points in the fourth quarter of the Spurs’ 111-103 victory over Oklahoma City in Game 7 of the Western Conference finals on Saturday.
Keldon Johnson on only playing 8 minutes in Game 1 last night:
“It doesn’t bother me too much. We’re in the Finals. Whatever we gotta do to win, that’s what we’ll do. Our coaches will put us in the best situations to be successful. I believe that 110 percent.” pic.twitter.com/qG1IsmTYTo— Spurs Nation (@ Spurs_Nation) June 4, 2026
But that strong finish at the Paycom Center didn’t carry over to the Frost Bank Center, where he failed to grab a rebound or dish out an assist.
Through 19 playoff games, Johnson is averaging just 8.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 0.9 assists in 18.1 minutes after finishing the regular season averaging 13.2 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 23.3 minutes while playing in all 82 games.
“My job is to go out there and perform and help my teammates win,” he said. “I believe in each and every one of my teammates. So, ultimately, if I’m not out there, I know the next man up that is out there will get it done. Just like I will. Eight minutes, it doesn’t bother me too much. We’re in the Finals. Whatever we got to do to win, that’s what we’ll do. Our coaches will put us in the best situation to be successful. I believe that 110%.”
Johnson’s teammates are confident he will bounce back Friday night in Game 2.
“KJ is going to be just fine,” said forward Devin Vassell, who had a subpar game of his own in Game 1 with nine points on 4-of-11 from the field and 1-of-6 from 3-points range.
“He’s the longest-tenured player here,” Vassell added. “He’s the heart and soul of the team. He just has to be confident in himself, confident in his game, be a pest defensively, be aggressive, get on the rebounding and just trust his work. KJ’s an amazing player. I have no doubt he’ll be good.”
