在麦迪逊广场花园举行的总决赛第三战中，朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie) 与维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 击掌庆祝。
G4取胜关键
让文班更多地扮演终结者角色
在系列赛开局经历了两场得分效率相对较低的比赛后，随着战场转移到纽约，这位全明星中锋在马刺进攻端扮演的角色也发生了转变。
简单来说，就是四个字：“化繁为简”。
马刺在第三战开局阶段就不断在内线和篮下寻找文班亚马——对于在篮球场上寻找一位身高7英尺4英寸的大家伙来说，这确实是个足够新颖的思路。
周一的比赛中，文班亚马在开场前五分钟内就攻下四球，全部是通过扣篮或上篮完成。
这与第二战的开局形成了鲜明对比，在那场比赛中，文班亚马整个上半场总共才尝试了四次运动战出手。
这一改变立竿见影。文班亚马砍下总决赛个人单场最高的32分，同时也打出了系列赛至今最佳的投篮表现，11投8中。
在第四战中，马刺应该继续让文班亚马扮演进攻终结者的角色，而不是战术的发起者或创造者。预计尼克斯同样会调整防守，以应对文班亚马对内线的冲击。

以防守带动进攻
在经历了前两场极不寻常的粗心表现后，马刺在周一的比赛中加强了对球权的保护，全场仅出现8次失误。
纽约方面送出了13次失误，这虽然不算一个惊人的数字，但马刺在将这些失误转化为直接得分方面做得极其出色。
在第三战中，马刺利用尼克斯的失误斩获了21分，通过成功的防守限制来推动他们的快攻反击。
这正是行之有效的马刺赢球方程式。
如果第四战陷入半场阵地战的泥潭，且尼克斯能够控制好失误，那么局势将对纽约有利。若想在周三将大比分扳平，马刺必须主动制造混乱，乱中取胜。
关键时刻的执行力依然至关重要
如果说这轮系列赛的前三场有什么启示的话，那就是第四战很可能依然要靠第四节的几次关键回合来决定胜负。
要想赢下比赛，马刺必须拿下这些关键回合。
第三战的最后阶段就充分印证了这一点。
在比赛还剩最后35秒时，马刺还领先6分。但尼克斯不断打出强硬表现，死死咬住比分。
距离比赛结束还剩33.3秒时，杰伦·布伦森 (Jalen Brunson) 弧顶飙中一记三分，将分差缩小了一半。
达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 在另一端以一记12英尺的中距离跳投还以颜色，帮助马刺重新取得4分领先。
阿努诺比 (O.G. Anunoby) 随即为纽约再中一记三分，在仅剩9.4秒时将比分追至111-113。
直到比赛还剩6.8秒时，斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 稳稳两罚全中，马刺才终于得以庆祝这场胜利。
纵观整个系列赛，尼克斯展现出了惊人的韧性，总能不断发起反击。如果马刺想在周三晚上带着平局离开麦迪逊广场花园，他们就必须在终场哨响前，始终保持比对手更高效的执行力。

Spurs vs. Knicks: Game 4 Keys to Victory

GAME 4 KEYS TO VICTORY
Lean into Wemby as a finisher
After a pair of relatively inefficient scoring games for Victor Wembanyama to open the series, the shift to New York sparked a shift in the All-Star center’s role in the Spurs’ offense.
In four words: “Keep it simple, stupid.”
The Spurs opened Game 3 looking for Wembanyama in the paint and near the rim – a novel enough concept for finding a 7-foot-4 fellow on a basketball court.
Wembanyama scored four baskets in the first five minutes Monday, all of them on dunks or layups.
It was a stark contrast from the start of Game 2, in which Wembanyama attempted only four field goals in the first half, total.
The change was reflected in the results. Wembanyama had his highest-scoring game of the Finals with 32 points. He also had his best shooting performance, going 8 of 11.
In Game 4, the Spurs should lean on Wembanyama as a play finisher, not a creator or initiator. Expect the Knicks to likewise tweak their defense to counter Wembanyama’s push toward the paint.
The Spurs gutted out a Game 3 victory in Madison Square Garden, denying the Knicks a sweep and keeping their NBA championship hopes alive behind 32 points from Victor Wembanyama. https://t.co/OZMN0gQBfF

Let defense fuel the offense
The Spurs tightened up their ball security after an uncharacteristically sloppy Games 1 and 2, committing only eight turnovers Monday.
New York handed out 13 turnovers, not a terribly high number, but the Spurs did a phenomenal job of converting those miscues into immediate points.
The Spurs logged 21 points off Knicks turnovers in Game 3, using defensive stops to fuel their fast-break offense.
It is a formula that works for the Spurs.
If Game 4 slows to a halfcourt grind, and the Knicks take care of the ball, it favors New York. To even the series Wednesday, the Spurs must embrace chaos.
Late-game execution remains vital
If the first three games of the series are any indication, Game 4 is likely to come down to a few possessions in the fourth quarter.
To win the game, the Spurs must win those possessions.
Game 3 provided ample examples down the stretch.
The Spurs led by six points heading into the final 35 seconds. The Knicks continued to make plays to stay in the game.
With 33.3 ticks remaining, Jalen Bruson buried a top-of-the-arc 3-pointer to carve the Knicks’ deficit in half.
De’Aaron Fox answered on the other end with a 12-footer to push the Spurs’ lead back to four.
O.G. Anunoby responded with another New York 3-pointer, bringing his team within 113-111 with 9.4 seconds remaining.
It took a pair of Stephon Castle free throws with 6.8 seconds left in order for the Spurs to finally be able to celebrate the victory.
Throughout the series, the Knicks have shown an uncanny ability to keep coming. If the Spurs are to walk out of Madison Square Garden with the series tied Wednesday night, they will have to keep out-executing them until the final horn.
