进入 2025-26 赛季，波士顿凯尔特人队的阵容与往年相比已经十分精简。除了杰森·塔图姆因跟腱断裂而正在康复之外，凯尔特人队还失去了朱·霍勒迪、克里斯塔普斯·波尔津吉斯和艾尔·霍福德这三位夺冠功臣。他们还失去了自由球员卢克·科内特。这耗尽了他们的前场力量——迫使内米亚斯·奎塔（Neemias Queta）成为比恩敦五人组中毫无疑问的先发球员。

奎塔去年的表现就证明了他在轮换阵容中占有一席之地。但是要为凯尔特人队这样一支有竞争力的球队首发比赛呢？这留下了很多问题需要回答，特别是当奎塔过去一直难以控制董事会时。

但所有对奎塔反弹的担忧现在都已成为过去。周日晚上，他表现出色，拿下 27 分和 17 个篮板，帮助球队以 114-98 击败乔尔·恩比德缺阵的费城 76 人队，创下了职业生涯的最佳表现。有趣的是，奎塔在赛后透露，他曾与 76 人队大个子安德烈·德拉蒙德在 如何变得更好 篮板手。

“大家伙，非常相似的比赛。我以前看过很多他的比赛 [in Detroit]。每当我能得到别人关于如何变得更好的建议时，我都会努力去做，这样我才能进步。在这类事情上他总是站在我这边……我对此很感激他。那是我的人，”奎塔通过 ClutchPoints 说道，凯尔特人队击败了记者丹尼尔·多纳贝迪安。

内米亚斯·奎塔仍然是凯尔特人队的首选中锋

尽管收购了尼古拉·武切维奇，奎塔仍然是凯尔特人队主教练乔·马祖拉的首选中锋，这是有充分理由的。无论是从横向还是纵向的角度来看，他的防守范围都很大，而且他的运动能力使他成为比武切维奇更好的防守者，尤其是在他们职业生涯的这个阶段。

奎塔的合同还剩一年，价值 270 万美元，这对于凯尔特人队来说简直是一笔彻头彻尾的偷窃。

進入 2025-26 賽季，波士頓塞爾提克的陣容與往年相比已經十分精簡。除了傑森·塔圖姆因跟腱斷裂而正在康復之外，凱爾特人隊還失去了朱·霍勒迪、克里斯塔普斯·波爾津吉斯和艾爾·霍福德這三位奪冠功臣。他們也失去了自由球員盧克·科內特。這耗盡了他們的前場力量——迫使內米亞斯·奎塔（Neemias Queta）成為比恩敦五人組中毫無疑問的先發球員。

奎塔去年的表現證明了他在輪換陣容中佔有一席之地。但是要為塞爾提克隊這樣一支有競爭力的球隊先發比賽呢？這留下了許多問題需要回答，特別是當奎塔過去一直難以控制董事會時。

但所有對奎塔反彈的擔憂現在都已成為過去。週日晚上，他表現出色，拿下 27 分和 17 個籃板，幫助球隊以 114-98 擊敗喬爾恩比德缺席的費城 76 人隊，創下了職業生涯的最佳表現。有趣的是，奎塔在賽後透露，他曾與 76 人隊大個子安德烈·德拉蒙德在 如何變得更好 籃板手。

「大傢伙，非常相似的比賽。我以前看過很多他的比賽 [in Detroit]。每當我能得到別人關於如何變得更好的建議時，我都會努力去做，這樣我才能進步。在這類事情上他總是站在我這邊……我對此很感激他。那是我的人，」奎塔透過 ClutchPoints 說道，凱爾特人隊擊敗了記者丹尼爾·多納貝迪安。

內米亞斯·奎塔仍然是凱爾特人隊的首選中鋒

儘管收購了尼古拉·武切維奇，奎塔仍然是凱爾特人隊主教練喬·馬祖拉的首選中鋒，這是有充分理由的。無論是從橫向還是縱向的角度來看，他的防守範圍都很大，而且他的運動能力使他成為比武切維奇更好的防守者，尤其是在他們職業生涯的這個階段。

奎塔的合約還剩一年，價值 270 萬美元，這對塞爾提克來說簡直是一筆徹頭徹尾的偷竊。

有些人认为德维恩·韦德是现代 NBA 最好的篮球运动员之一，他的作品也支持了这一说法。他的投资组合还证明他是一位非常成功的企业家，但那是另一回事了。

这位迈阿密热火队的传奇人物也是亚马逊 Prime Video NBA 报道的轮流混合游戏和工作室分析师，如果这个最新的剪辑可以作为参考，那么韦德并不需要所有的忙碌。这是因为他仍然拥有它，根据 ClutchPoints 在 X 上的帖子，Prime 集上的 NBA 剪辑证明了这一点。

他还是明白了！

— ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) 2026 年 2 月 28 日

在视频中，可以看到韦德几乎过于自信地击球并投进了一个不看人的跳投，然后漫不经心地走过来，拍拍了球队的几名成员。韦德是 NBA Prime 阵容中明星云集的一员，其中还包括布雷克·格里芬、德克·诺维茨基、乌杜尼斯·哈斯勒姆、史蒂夫·纳什和坎迪斯·帕克。

“D.韦德干得轻松，”视频中说道。

韦德职业生涯的大部分时间都在迈阿密热火队度过，他赢得了三座 NBA 冠军（2006 年、2012 年、2013 年），并被评为 2006 年 NBA 总决赛 MVP。从统计数据来看，他的统治地位是不可否认的：他 13 次入选全明星，8 次入选 NBA 最佳阵容，并 3 次入选最佳防守阵容。

在2008-09赛季的巅峰时期，韦德以总得分（2,386分）和场均得分（30.2分）领先联盟，赢得了NBA得分王称号。直到今天，他仍然是迈阿密热火队队史得分、出场次数、助攻、抢断、投篮次数和出手数方面的领先者，同时还保持着 NBA 后卫盖帽纪录。

韦德在场外也继续取得同样的成功。他积极收购体育所有权，收购了 NBA 犹他爵士队 (2021 年)、WNBA 芝加哥天空队 (2023 年) 以及 MLS/NWSL 皇家盐湖城队和犹他皇家队的少数股权。

通过他的第 59 届 & Prairie Entertainment 旗帜，他已成为一名重量级制片人，获得两项体育艾美奖（《救赎之队》和《爸爸们》），并凭借短片纪录片《小石城的理发师》获得奥斯卡提名。

Some view Dwyane Wade as one of the best basketball players in the modern NBA, and his portfolio supports that claim. His portfolio also supports that he is a very successful entrepreneur, but that’s a story for another day.

The Miami Heat legend is also a rotating hybrid game and studio analyst for Amazon Prime Video’s NBA coverage, and if this latest clip is anything to go by, Wade doesn’t need all the hustle. That’s because he still has it, as evidenced by a clip from the NBA on Prime set, according to a post on X by ClutchPoints.

He still got it!

In it, Wade can be seen hitting and sinking a no-look jumper with almost overconfidence before casually strolling over and patting several team members. Wade is part of a star-studded NBA on Prime roster that also includes Blake Griffin, Dirk Nowitzki, Udonis Haslem, Steve Nash and Candace Parker.

“Light work for D.Wade,” the clip said.

Spending the majority of his career with the Miami Heat, Wade won three NBA championships (2006, 2012, 2013) and was named 2006 NBA Finals MVP. Statistically, his dominance is undeniable: he earned 13 All-Star selections, eight All-NBA Team nods and three All-Defensive Team honors.

During his peak in the 2008–09 season, Wade won the NBA scoring title by leading the league in both total points (2,386) and points per game (30.2). To date, he remains the Miami Heat’s all-time franchise leader in points, games played, assists, steals, shots and shots taken, while he also holds the NBA’s all-time record for blocked shots by a guard.

And well, Wade is finding similar success off the court. They have aggressively bought into sports ownership, acquiring minority stakes in the NBA’s Utah Jazz (2021), the WNBA’s Chicago Sky (2023), and the MLS/NWSL’s Real Salt Lake and Utah Royals.

Through his 59th & Prairie Entertainment banner, he has become a heavyweight producer, garnering two Sports Emmy Awards (for The Redeem Team and The Dads) and an Oscar nomination for the short documentary The Barber of Little Rock.

维克托·温班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 在他的第三个赛季中有机会成为 NBA 有史以来最年轻的 MVP。虽然他认为圣安东尼奥马刺队的成功是他最有力的论据，但他知道他必须在剩下的时间里提高个人表现才能脱颖而出。

“我知道我正在讨论 MVP。当然，这是我的目标之一，”温班亚马在周四战胜布鲁克林篮网队后说道。 “我认为最主要的论点是球队的成功。这始终是第一件事。但我也意识到，我需要在赛季最后阶段稍微加大力度才能赢得这个奖项。”

温巴尼亚马的双向进攻让圣安东尼奥马刺队的战绩排名第三（43胜16负），仅落后榜首的俄克拉荷马城雷霆队 1.5 个胜场。马刺队在二月份取得了 NBA 最好的 11 连胜。

维克托·温班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 获得 MVP，带领马刺队在 NBA 积分榜上不断上升

温比亚玛在 45 场比赛中场均贡献 23.7 分、11.2 个篮板和 2.9 次助攻，投篮命中率为 0.501/0.347/0.815。他和尼古拉·约基奇是 NBA 中唯一能达到如此效率的球员。

与此同时，温班亚马巩固了自己作为 NBA 顶级防守球员的地位，带领马刺队在 NBA 排名第三。这位 22 岁的球员以场均 3.8 次抢断（抢断+盖帽）领先全联盟，领先第二高的球员 0.8（斯科蒂·巴恩斯：3.0）。根据 CleaningTheGlass 的数据，他的防守效率波动为 -10.6（球员上场与下场时每 100 次控球所允许的球队得分），这是联盟第二高的得分，仅次于鲁迪·戈贝尔（-12.7）。

马刺队主教练米奇·约翰逊表示，毫无疑问，温巴尼亚马具有 MVP 级别的影响力。

“他是球队获胜的重要推动者 [as anybody]”约翰逊说。“被认为是最好或最有价值的个人因素是进攻、防守、篮板以及介于两者之间的一切。他走在最前线 [each of] 那些。联盟中还有其他人这样做。我还没有深入探讨这一点，但我绝对认为他在谈话中。有人很难就他为什么没有参与那次谈话做出合乎逻辑的论证。”

根据 FanDuel Sportsbook 的数据，Wembanyama 目前的 MVP 赔率排名第四，为 +2500，落后于 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander（-250）、Nikola Jokic（+400）和 Cade Cunningham（+850）。这位法国巨星只需再缺席三场比赛即可保持获得该奖项的资格。

查尔斯·巴克利从来都不是一个咬紧牙关的人，而且他现在也不打算开始，尤其是在涉及 NBA 价值 760 亿美元的新媒体版权协议时。最近出现在 ESPN 节目中 请原谅打扰这位名人堂成员放任不管，指责联盟创造了支离破碎的观看体验，让球迷们摸不着头脑。

巴克利最近与 ESPN 团队的其他成员一起加入 NBA内部 船员们，呼应了整个赛季社交媒体上酝酿的情绪。

“球迷现在很难找到比赛，”巴克利告诉迈克尔·威尔本和托尼·科恩海塞尔。 “我认为我们对球迷和比赛造成了伤害。我们必须找到一种方法让球迷知道……但人们甚至不知道比赛何时在 NBC 上播出、何时在 Peacock 上播出、他们不知道比赛何时在亚马逊上播出。”

“我认为我们对球迷和比赛都造成了损害。”

2025-26 赛季推出了令人眼花缭乱的时间表，全国转播权由华特迪士尼公司、NBCUniversal 和 Amazon Prime Video 分割。虽然联盟获得了巨额发薪日，但“我在哪里观看这个？”对于沮丧的球迷来说，这个问题已经成为每晚的仪式。

以周四晚上在 Intuit Dome 发生的冲突为例。明尼苏达森林狼队在防守上以 94-88 战胜了人手不足的洛杉矶快船队。安东尼·爱德华兹本赛季场均贡献29.6分，带领森林狼队将战绩提高到36胜23负。与此同时，快船队在科怀·伦纳德和达柳斯·加兰缺阵的情况下，战绩下滑至27胜30负。

对于想要观看西部决赛的球迷来说，寻找合适的应用程序或频道通常需要比第一季度更长的时间。巴克利的观点很简单：如果联盟让收视变得如此困难，他们就有可能完全失去普通观众。

随着 NBA 进一步迈入数字化时代，联盟必须找到更好的方式来引导观众。

Detroit Pistons fans are excited about their team’s potential playoff success after Friday night’s win over the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Detroit is enjoying a strong campaign as one of the best teams in the entire league. They picked up an overtime win over Cleveland, which continues to hold its place in the East standings with back-to-back games.

Fans came in large numbers to react to the game and were positive towards a win, expecting a better performance. Here are some of their reactions.

One fan said, “Great win! Both teams advanced. The Cavs were missing Donovan Mitchell and a few others while our Pistons are still missing Isaiah Stewart.”

“I didn’t enjoy going to OT against a shorthanded Cavs team. But… at the same time we enjoyed the win even though we were shorthanded. Boys fight when it counts. And those who play hard get the wins. #DetroitBasketball,” another commented.

One commented, “Celebrate the wins, but hang on. Every dub is proof that opportunity came with preparation. Stack ’em up, stay humble and keep building the scoreboard, it only tells part of the story. The work continues.”

“What a comeback victory,” one replied.

One fan said, “The win came and JB benched LeVert for Sasser, I prayed for times like this.”

How did the Pistons play against the Cavaliers?

Pistons fans can expect more from their team after defeating the Cavaliers. Nonetheless, the playoff bar remains high for them.

Five players scored in double figures for Detroit in the win. Jalen Duren dominated with a performance of 33 points, 16 rebounds, three assists and three blocks. He shot 11 of 19 from the field and 11 of 15 from the free-throw line. Cade Cunningham finished second with 25 points and 10 rebounds, Ausner Thompson had 18 points and eight rebounds, Ronald Holland II put up 12 points and three rebounds, while Tobias Harris provided 11 points and six steals.

Detroit improved to a 44–14 record on the season and topped the Eastern Conference standings. They are 5.5 games up on the Boston Celtics and seven games up on the New York Knicks.

The Pistons look forward to their next matchup while on the road. They will face the Orlando Magic as tip-off takes place on March 1 at 6 PM ET.

底特律活塞队周五晚上战胜克利夫兰骑士队后，球迷们对他们的球队在季后赛中可能取得的成功感到越来越兴奋。

作为整个联盟中最好的球队之一，底特律正在享受强劲的赛季。他们通过加时赛战胜了克利夫兰骑士队，克利夫兰骑士队凭借一系列稳定的比赛在东部积分榜上一路攀升。

球迷们纷纷前来观看比赛，希望比赛能有更好的表现，同时对胜利抱有积极的态度。以下是他们的一些反应。

“史诗般的胜利！两支球队都挺身而出。骑士队没有多诺万·米切尔和其他一些人，而我们的活塞队仍然想念以赛亚·斯图尔特，”一位球迷说道。

“我不喜欢加时对抗一支人手不足的骑士队。但是……与此同时，我们在人手不足的情况下取得了胜利。男孩们在重要的时候战斗。而那些更加努力的人会赢得胜利。#DetroitBasketball，”另一位评论道。

“庆祝胜利，但要保持专注。每一次配音都证明准备工作遇到了机会。把它们堆积起来，保持谦虚，并不断建立记分牌只是故事的一部分。磨砺仍在继续，”一位评论道。

“这是一次多么伟大的逆转胜利啊，”其中一位回答道。

“赢得了胜利，JB 让莱维特替补震荡波，我为这样的时刻祈祷，”一位球迷说道。

活塞队如何对阵骑士队

击败骑士队后，活塞队球迷可以从他们的球队获得更多。尽管如此，他们的季后赛上限仍然很高。

在这场胜利中，底特律队有五名球员得分达到两位数。贾伦·杜伦拿下33分、16个篮板、3次助攻和3次盖帽，占据统治地位。他投篮19投11中，罚球线15投11中。凯德·坎宁安拿下25分和10个篮板，奥萨尔·汤普森得到18分和8个篮板，罗纳德·霍兰德二世得到12分和3个篮板，托比亚斯·哈里斯得到11分和6次抢断。

底特律队本赛季战绩达到44胜14负，高居东部积分榜榜首。他们比波士顿凯尔特人队高5.5个胜场，比纽约尼克斯队高7个胜场。

活塞队将期待下一场客场比赛。他们将迎战奥兰多魔术队，比赛将于美国东部时间 3 月 1 日下午 6 点进行。

Charles Barkley has never been one to bite his tongue, and he’s not about to start now, especially when it comes to the NBA’s new $76 billion media rights deal. During a recent appearance on ESPN sorry for the interruptionThe Hall of Famer criticized it and called out the league for creating a fragmented viewing experience that left fans scratching their heads.

Barkley, who recently joined the ESPN team along with the rest of the inside the nba Crews echoed the sentiment that has been emerging on social media throughout the season.

“It’s very difficult for fans to find games now,” Barkley told Michael Wilbon and Tony Kornheiser. “I think we’ve done a disservice to the fans and to the game. We have to find a way to tell fans that… but people also don’t know when the games are on NBC, when they’re on Peacock, they don’t know when the games are on Amazon.”

“I think we’ve disrespected the fans and the game.”

– Awful Announcement (@awfulaannouncement) 27 February 2026

The 2025–26 season introduced a rotating schedule that split national broadcasts between The Walt Disney Company, NBCUniversal, and Amazon Prime Video. While the league received massive payouts, the question “Where do I see it?” The question has become a nightly ritual for frustrated fans.

Take, for example, the clash at the Intuit Dome Thursday night. The Minnesota Timberwolves handled the shorthanded Los Angeles Clippers in a 94-88 defensive grind. Anthony Edwards, who is averaging 29.6 points per game this season, led the way and the Timberwolves improved to 36–23. Meanwhile, the Clippers, playing without Kawhi Leonard and Darius Garland, slipped to 27-30.

For fans trying to watch that famous Western Conference matchup, finding the right app or channel often takes longer than the first quarter. Barkley’s point is simple: If the league makes it harder to tune in, they risk losing the casual viewer entirely.

As the NBA moves into this digital-first era, the league must find a better way to guide its viewers.

周四晚上，凯文·杜兰特带领休斯敦火箭队以 113-108 客场战胜奥兰多魔术队，在此过程中，他创造了一段令人震惊的历史，突显了他的名人堂生涯的积极和消极方面。通过 ClutchPoints，这位 37 岁的前锋成为唯一一位在与五支不同球队的常规赛比赛中得分超过 40 分的球员。

这一出色的壮举体现了杜兰特近二十年来所展现出的进攻华丽，也让人注意到他在过去十年中的进步。这位两届 NBA 总决赛 MVP 是有史以来最出色的得分手之一，但他在逆境加剧时离开球队的习惯经常在遗产讨论中被用来反对他。不过，如果他能帮助火箭队赢得自 1995 年以来的首个总冠军，故事将会立即改变。

休斯顿（37胜21负）本赛季时不时地遇到一些坎坷，但在58场比赛中占据西部第三位。如果杜兰特健康的话，这支球队在季后赛中应该是相当危险的。他一直表现出色，场均贡献26.1分、5.4个篮板和4.5次助攻，三分球命中率为40.2%。

火箭队主教练伊梅·乌多卡希望其他人能在这位年迈的超级巨星周围站出来，但他也知道球队通往拉里·奥布莱恩奖杯的道路很大程度上依赖于杜兰特如丝般流畅的投篮。球迷们对球队的长远未来充满信心，阿尔佩伦·森贡 (Alperen Sengun) 和阿门·汤普森 (Amen Thompson) 组成了令人兴奋的年轻核心（里德·谢泼德 (Reed Sheppard) 可能很快就会加入他们）。然而问题是，四届得分王是否符合他们的时间表？

凯文·杜兰特将努力继续点亮记分牌，并希望他的队友随着赛季的进展而继续成长。他的合同还剩两年，其中包括2027-28赛季价值4600万美元的球员选项），因此这位11次入选NBA最佳阵容的球员是否会在退役前以40分的成绩成为第六支球队，还有待观察。

週四晚上，凱文杜蘭特帶領休士頓火箭隊以 113-108 客場戰勝奧蘭多魔術隊，在此過程中，他創造了一段令人震驚的歷史，突顯了他的名人堂生涯的積極和消極方面。透過 ClutchPoints，這位 37 歲的前鋒成為唯一一位在與五支不同球隊的常規賽比賽中得分超過 40 分的球員。

這項出色的壯舉體現了杜蘭特近二十年來所展現出的進攻華麗，也讓人注意到他在過去十年中的進步。這位兩屆 NBA 總決賽 MVP 是有史以來最出色的得分手之一，但他在逆境加劇時離開球隊的習慣經常在遺產討論中被用來反對他。不過，如果他能幫助火箭隊贏得自 1995 年以來的首個總冠軍，故事將會立即改變。

休士頓（37勝21負）本賽季不時遇到一些坎坷，但在58場比賽中佔據西部第三位。如果杜蘭特健康的話，這支球隊在季後賽中應該是相當危險的。他一直表現出色，場均貢獻26.1分、5.4個籃板和4.5次助攻，三分球命中率為40.2%。

火箭隊主教練伊梅·烏多卡希望其他人能在這位年邁的超級巨星周圍站出來，但他也知道球隊通往拉里·奧布萊恩獎杯的道路很大程度上依賴於杜蘭特如絲般流暢的投籃。球迷們對球隊的長遠未來充滿信心，阿爾佩倫·森貢 (Alperen Sengun) 和阿門·湯普森 (Amen Thompson) 組成了令人興奮的年輕核心（里德·謝潑德 (Reed Sheppard) 可能很快就會加入他們）。然而問題是，四屆得分王是否符合他們的時間表？

凱文杜蘭特將努力繼續點亮記分牌，並希望他的隊友隨著賽季的進展而繼續成長。他的合約還剩兩年，其中包括2027-28賽季價值4600萬美元的球員選項），因此這位11次入選NBA最佳陣容的球員是否會在退休前以40分的成績成為第六支球隊，還有待觀察。

圣安东尼奥马刺队打造了 NBA 最令人畏惧的防守之一。 Victor Wembanyama 的 MVP 级别发挥最受关注。然而，斯蒂芬·卡斯尔作为联盟顶级控球后卫之一的崛起，是对这位法国超级巨星的精英赞扬。

“[Stephon] 非常理解他的角色。他的表现对于二年级球员来说确实是前所未见的，”温班亚马谈到卡斯尔的防守时说道。“我们让与我们比赛的人感到不舒服。这就是目标。必须运球绕过最好的持球防守者之一，然后必须越过一些最好的护框者投篮，这是非常艰难的。”

马刺队取得了联盟最佳的 11 连胜，战绩排名联盟第三（43 胜 16 负）。卡斯尔在第二个赛季的双向贡献加快了马刺队的时间表。

这位21岁的球员在进攻端表现出色，在49场比赛中场均得到16.6分和6.8次助攻，投篮命中率为46.7%。然而，卡斯尔在扩大防守方面的成功是他影响力背后的催化剂。

斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 在热刺的崛起中成为防守终结者

圣安东尼奥马刺队责成卡斯尔每晚保卫联盟的顶级得分手。这位身高 6 英尺 6 英寸的后卫已经迎接了挑战，并与温班亚马并肩领导着一支联盟第三的防守队伍。

根据 CleaningTheGlass 的数据，Castle 的防守效率波动为 -4.7（球员上场与下场时每 100 次控球所允许的球队得分），这是 NBA 出场时间超过 1,000 分钟的后卫中排名第六的数据。当他和温巴尼亚马在场时，马刺队的防守效率为 109.3。

圣安东尼 MVP候选人 在周一以 114-103 战胜底特律活塞队的比赛中，凯德·坎宁安 26 投 5 中得到 16 分。在卡斯尔防守时，坎宁安 13 投 3 中（23.1%），有两次失误。

“[Stephon] 去年，马刺队主教练米奇·约翰逊就展现了他的潜力。“他在防守方面有过一些非常好的时刻。今年，我们显然提高了要求，这增加了他防守联盟中顶级得分手和控球球员的机会。我认为他已经证明了自己的能力。我认为他必须在其他方面继续成长。但我认为在控球方面他和联盟中的任何人一样出色。”

— Fullcourtpass (@Fullcourtpass) 2026 年 2 月 24 日

由于卡斯尔和温班亚马已经对对方的进攻造成了严重破坏，马刺队还有另一位潜在的精英控球后卫新秀迪伦·哈珀。这位身高 6 英尺 5 英寸、体重 215 磅、臂展 6 英尺 10.5 英寸、高于平均水平的运动能力，这位年仅 19 岁的二号选秀球员就给对方的控球手带来了麻烦。

哈珀在支持 Castle 的同时边工作边学习。

“斯蒂芬最重要的一点是他是一个竞争者。当我到达圣安东尼奥时我很早就看到了这一点，”他说。 “无论情况如何，无论他的对手是谁，他都会参加比赛。在最大的舞台上，他付出的所有努力都会得到体现。他的身体素质非常出色。” [at the point of attack]，有精英侧翼和其他后卫，然后就有维克多和卢克 [Kornet] 在边缘，就像选择你的毒药一样。你要么要么投篮，要么把它踢出去。”

马刺队目前与克利夫兰骑士队并列夺冠赔率第三（+950），仅次于丹佛掘金队（+600）和俄克拉荷马城雷霆队（+135）。温班亚马、卡斯尔和哈珀下赛季的新秀合同仍然有效。

When the Oklahoma City Thunder got off to a hot start and won 24 of their first 25 games, it seemed like it was a foregone conclusion that they would return to the NBA Finals.

But while the Thunder still have the best record in the league at 45-15, they have looked strong over the past few weeks, especially with injuries to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams.

Oklahoma City is eager to defend its championship, but that won’t be the case for NBA legend Dwyane Wade, as he predicted on “The Zach Lowe Show” that the San Antonio Spurs and Detroit Pistons will face off in this year’s NBA Finals.

“I’ve watched the Spurs, I’ve watched some of their games. Even though I don’t think they should be ready, they should be a team over the next three years, but they do things sometimes. You look at their roster, you look at their players, with the right matchups, they’ll be tough to beat,” Wade said.

The Thunder have lost three times in four meetings with the Spurs this season, including the NBA Cup semifinals, in which San Antonio ended OKC’s 16-game winning streak.

As for the Pistons, Wade, who works as an analyst for NBC and Prime, said their depth will carry them to the final round.

“I watched Detroit the other night in New York without (Jalen) Duren and without (Isaiah) Stewart, and I didn’t see them lose once. I said, ‘This team is too deep.’ They know their style, they know their game, they know how to win. It’s hard when a team doesn’t have to figure it out,” the three-time champion explained.

The Thunder lost to the Pistons on Wednesday, although they were significantly weaker without Gilgeous-Alexander, Williams, Chet Holmgren, Isaiah Hartenstein and Ajay Mitchell.

Oklahoma City will have another tough test on Friday against the Denver Nuggets.

当俄克拉荷马城雷霆队开局不利，在前 25 场比赛中赢下 24 场时，他们重返 NBA 总决赛似乎已成定局。

尽管雷霆队仍以 45 胜 15 负的战绩位列联盟第一，但他们在过去几周看起来更加不稳定，尤其是在谢伊·吉尔吉斯·亚历山大和贾伦·威廉姆斯受伤的情况下。

俄克拉荷马城渴望卫冕，但对于 NBA 传奇人物德维恩·韦德来说，这不会发生，正如他在《扎克·洛秀》中预测的那样，圣安东尼奥马刺队和底特律活塞队将在今年的 NBA 总决赛中对决。

“我看过马刺队的比赛，看过他们的几场比赛。尽管我觉得他们还没有准备好。他们应该在未来三年内成为一支球队，但他们有时会做一些事情。你看看他们的阵容，看看他们的球员，如果有合适的对位，他们将很难被击败，”韦德说。

雷霆队本赛季在与马刺队的四次交锋中输掉了三次，其中包括NBA杯半决赛，马刺队也终止了雷霆队的16连胜。

至于活塞队，担任 NBC 和 Prime 分析师的韦德表示，他们的深度将推动他们进入最后一轮。

“那天晚上我在纽约观看了没有（贾伦）杜伦和（以赛亚）斯图尔特的底特律比赛，我没有看到他们错过任何一个节奏。我当时想，‘这支球队很有深度。’他们知道自己的风格，他们知道自己的比赛，他们知道如何获胜。当一支球队不需要解决这个问题时，这就很难了。”这位三届冠军解释道。

雷霆队在周三输给了活塞队，尽管他们在没有吉尔吉斯-亚历山大、威廉姆斯、切特·霍姆格伦、以赛亚·哈滕斯坦和阿贾伊·米切尔的情况下严重耗尽。

俄克拉荷马城队将于周五对阵丹佛掘金队，再次面临严峻的考验。

The Charlotte Hornets have made great strides towards becoming a playoff team, and a big reason for that is Hornets rookie Kon Nueppel. Under the leadership of their Rookie of the Year candidate, the Hornets have climbed up the Eastern Conference standings.

Knuppel was one of the league’s best rookies this season, and came into Thursday night’s game with a chance to make NBA history. Knueppel entered the game against the Indiana Pacers with 201 three-pointers in his rookie season, just five three-pointers away from tying Sacramento Kings rookie Keegan Murray for most three-pointers in a rookie season.

In the 2022–23 regular season, Murray recorded 206 three-pointers in 80 games as a rookie for the Kings. This season, Kon Knueppel made a total of 201 three-pointers in only 58 regular season games with the Hornets.

With his fifth three-pointer of the game, all of which came in the first half, Knueppel tied Keegan Murray’s rookie record for three-pointers in a season.

Con Knueppel made his sixth three-pointer of the night with 1:05 remaining in the third quarter, giving him 207 three-pointers on the season.

Charlotte led Indiana 107–82 after three quarters of play. Knuppel had 20 points and three rebounds in three quarters of play. Brandon Miller led all scorers with 33 points, seven rebounds and four assists.

Most 3-pointers made by a rookie in a single season in NBA history:

In his first season in the NBA, Kon Knueppel is averaging 19.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.5 assists, while shooting 48.9 percent from the field, 43.6 percent from three and 89.3 percent from the free throw line. This is the most efficient season by any player scoring more than 15 points per night in NBA history.

The Hornets were 12 games under .500 at 11–23 on January 2, 2026. Since that loss against the Milwaukee Bucks, Charlotte has gone 17-8, one of the better records in the league. Now sitting at 28-31 after winning seven of their last 10 games, the Hornets have a very good chance to be one of the four play-in teams and an outside chance to climb into the top six in the Eastern Conference.

The Hornets are currently just one game ahead of the 10th-seeded Milwaukee Bucks in the West and just 4.5 games behind the sixth-seeded Philadelphia 76ers.

夏洛特黄蜂队在成为季后赛球队方面取得了长足的进步，其中一个重要原因是黄蜂队新秀康·克努佩尔。在年度最佳新秀候选人的带领下，黄蜂队在东部联盟的积分榜上不断攀升。

克努佩尔是本赛季联盟中最好的新秀之一，他带着创造 NBA 历史的机会参加了周四晚上的比赛。克努佩尔新秀赛季在对阵印第安纳步行者队的比赛中投进了201个三分球，距离追平萨克拉门托国王队新秀基冈·穆雷的新秀赛季三分球命中数仅差5个三分球。

2022-23赛季常规赛，新秀穆雷在国王队的80场比赛中投进了206个三分球。本赛季，康·努佩尔在黄蜂队的 58 场常规赛中总共投进了 201 个三分球。

克努佩尔在上半场投进了本场比赛的第五个三分球，追平了基冈·穆雷新秀赛季三分球命中数纪录。

康·克努佩尔在第三节还剩 1 分 05 秒时投进了他当晚的第六个三分球，这让他本赛季投进了 207 个三分球。

三节比赛结束后，夏洛特以 107-82 领先印第安纳。克努佩尔在三节比赛中得到20分和3个篮板。布兰登·米勒以 33 分、7 个篮板和 4 次助攻领先所有得分手。

NBA历史上新秀单赛季投进最多三分球：

康·克努佩尔在 NBA 的第一个赛季场均贡献 19.3 分、5.4 个篮板、3.5 次助攻，投篮命中率为 48.9%，三分命中率为 43.6%，罚球命中率为 89.3%。这是NBA历史上新秀场均得分超过15分的球员中效率最高的一个赛季。

2026 年 1 月 2 日，黄蜂队有 12 场比赛比分低于 0.500，战绩为 11 胜 23 负。自从输给密尔沃基雄鹿队之后，夏洛特队取得了 17 胜 8 负的战绩，是联盟中最好的战绩之一。黄蜂队在过去 10 场比赛中赢了 7 场，目前战绩为 28 胜 31 负，他们很有可能成为四支附加赛球队之一，并且有机会跻身东部前六。

黄蜂队目前仅领先西部第10号种子密尔沃基雄鹿队1个胜场，仅落后第6号种子费城76人队4.5个胜场。

周二，洛杉矶湖人队主场输给奥兰多魔术队，遭遇连败。卢卡·东契奇本有机会在最后时刻赢得这场比赛，但最终他运球并把球传给了队友勒布朗·詹姆斯，后者看到他绝望地从篮筐上飞了出去。

东契奇后来对这个错误承担了责任，这与他作为NBA关键时刻最具杀伤力的球员之一的声誉相悖。事实上，奇怪的是，东契奇在过去的两个赛季中并没有表现出任何稳定性，这可以追溯到他在达拉斯小牛队的时候。

“在过去的两个赛季中，有 207 名 NBA 球员在比赛的最后一分钟投进了平局或反超比分的球，”Stathead 通过 X（前身为 Twitter）上的 Tom Haberstroh 表示。 “卢卡·东契奇不在这 207 名球员之中。周二晚上向勒布朗投掷的奇怪手榴弹并不罕见。”

东契奇在他的职业生涯中曾多次压哨打出精彩表现，包括在 2024 年西部决赛第二场比赛中射门击败明尼苏达森林狼队，但这种趋势在过去两年中明显减弱，这很难解释。

这位斯洛文尼亚球星可以对抗联盟中的大多数后卫，并且拥有大量的动作可供他使用，以达到自己的位置。湖人队本赛季大部分时间都在势均力敌的比赛中表现出色，这在很大程度上解释了尽管净效率平平，但他们的稳健战绩，因此东契奇的关键缺陷并没有对球队产生太大影响，除了输给魔术队之外。

然而，一旦季后赛来临，洛杉矶队肯定会希望东契奇在最后一秒投篮。

湖人队接下来将于周四晚上客场对阵菲尼克斯太阳队。

The Los Angeles Lakers suffered their second consecutive loss on Tuesday with a home loss to the Orlando Magic. Luka Doncic had a chance to win it late, but he picked up his dribble and passed the ball to teammate LeBron James, who saw his desperation miss the rim.

Doncic later took responsibility for the mistake, which damaged his reputation as one of the NBA’s most lethal scorers. In fact, Doncic hasn’t appeared in the clutch with any consistency over the last two seasons, including during his time with the Dallas Mavericks.

“Over the past two seasons, 207 NBA players have made a shot to tie or take the lead in the final minute of a game,” according to the former stathead via Tom Haberstroh on Twitter. “Luka Doncic is not one of those 207 players. Tuesday night’s bizarre grenade on LeBron is no exception.”

Doncic has made a number of big plays at the buzzer throughout his career, including his shot to beat the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 2 of the 2024 Western Conference Finals, but the trend has diminished significantly over the past two years, which is difficult to explain.

The Slovenian star can hit his shot against any defender in the league, and has a wide range of moves he can use to get to his position. For the most part the Lakers have specialized in close games this season, which largely helps explain their solid record despite a mediocre Nets rating, so Doncic’s clutch shortcomings aren’t affecting the team much, other than the loss against the Magic.

However, Los Angeles will definitely want to get Doncic a last-second shot once the playoffs begin.

The Lakers next play against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday evening.

由于犹他爵士队球星劳里·马尔卡宁在周三的训练中受伤，有传言称 NBA 可能会更深入地调查球队的情况，而这支球队正处于陷入困境的猜测之中。虽然有传言称NBA会派医生来核实爵士队马尔卡宁的伤势，但最新的报道已经澄清了所有这些信息。

《The Athletic》的托尼·琼斯最初报道称，联盟正在“派遣独立医生进行核实”。他会在 X（以前的 Twitter）上表示这种情况不会发生，但 NBA 将监控结果，尽管这是“标准做法”。

“我被告知，劳里·马尔卡宁正在接受核磁共振检查，所以爵士队应该会得到结果。NBA正在按照标准做法评估结果。他们没有派遣医疗人员前往犹他州。这部分我错了。我很抱歉，”琼斯在周四下午写道。

犹他州是被指控表现不佳的几支球队之一，甚至球队也被罚款 50 万美元，原因是 NBA 称“对最近比赛的阵容进行了管理”。其中包括爵士队在第四节比赛比分接近时坐上马尔卡宁、小贾伦·杰克逊和优素福·努尔基奇等关键球员。

爵士队球员劳里·马尔卡宁正在等待核磁共振检查结果

一段时间后，有消息称杰克逊和努尔基奇将分别因膝盖和鼻子受伤缺席本赛季。据《盐湖论坛报》的凯文·雷诺兹报道，马尔卡宁将接受核磁共振检查，以确定右脚踝和右臀部受伤的严重程度。

雷诺兹周三写道：“犹他爵士队球星劳里·马尔卡宁在周三的训练中受伤，可能会缺席一段时间。” “据知情人士透露，马尔卡宁将接受右脚踝和右髋受伤情况的评估。这位身高 7 英尺的球员将接受核磁共振检查，以确定受伤的严重程度。”

马尔卡宁场均得到全队最高、职业生涯最高的26.7分和6.9个篮板，投篮命中率为47.7%，三分命中率为35.5%。核磁共振结果对马尔卡宁的影响还有待观察。

As Utah Jazz star Lauri Markkanen suffered an injury in Wednesday’s practice, there was some talk about the NBA possibly taking a deeper look at the situation with the team at the forefront of tanking speculation. While there were rumors that the NBA sent doctors to confirm Markkanen’s injury to the Jazz, the latest reporting has cleared up all the details.

Tony Jones of The Athletic originally reported that the league was “sending out independent doctors for verification.” He would say on Twitter, formerly of Twitter, that it would not happen, but that the NBA would monitor the results, although that is “standard practice.”

“I’m told Lauri Markkanen is getting his MRI, so the Jazz should have results. The NBA is evaluating the results as standard practice. They did not send medical personnel to Utah. I got that part wrong. I’m sorry,” Jones wrote Thursday afternoon.

Utah is one of several teams accused of tanking, with the franchise even fined $500,000 for what the NBA said was “the management of their roster for recent games.” This included hitting key Jazz players such as Markkanen, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Jusuf Nurkic in the fourth quarter when the games were close.

Jazz’s Lauri Markkanen awaits MRI results

Shortly afterward, it would be revealed that Jackson and Nurkic would miss the season due to knee and nose injuries, respectively. According to Kevin Reynolds of The Salt Lake Tribune, Markkanen will receive an MRI on his right ankle and right hip to determine the severity of his injury.

“Utah Jazz star Lauri Markkanen may miss some time after suffering a concussion during practice on Wednesday,” Reynolds wrote Wednesday. According to a source with knowledge of the situation, “Markkanen will be evaluated for a right ankle and right hip injury. The 7-foot player will undergo an MRI to determine the severity of the injury.”

Markkanen is averaging a team-high and career-best 26.7 points, along with 6.9 rebounds per game, while shooting 47.7 percent from the field and 35.5 percent from three-point range. It remains to be seen what the MRI results say about Markkanen.

不久前，底特律活塞队还被NBA其他球队瞧不起。凯德·坎宁安 (Cade Cunningham) 在联盟的前三个赛季中，他的球队总共只赢了 54 场比赛，而这支球队根本无法成为东部的威胁。

甚至其他球队也在嘲笑活塞队，在活塞队在 2023-24 赛季连续输掉 28 场比赛（并列 NBA 历史上最长连败纪录）后，凯尔·库兹马曾说过一句名言，没有人愿意“成为那支球队”。这对于该组织来说是最低谷，但时代已经发生了巨大变化。

现在，坎宁安已经进入了他的第五个赛季，将活塞队提升到了新的高度，这支球队目前不仅有望超越这位年轻球星在 NBA 的前三年取得的 54 场胜利，而且还将在球队历史上第三次赢得至少 60 场比赛。

活塞队两次进入东部决赛，他们在一个赛季中赢得至少 60 场比赛，最近一次是 20 年前的 2006 年。尽管底特律那个赛季差点进入 NBA 总决赛，但他们在 1988-89 赛季赢得了总冠军，该赛季他们的战绩为 63 胜 19 负。

本赛季，活塞队延续了过去的脚步，目前牢牢占据东部积分榜榜首的位置，并有资格在季后赛开始时称自己为进入NBA总决赛的球队。

尽管还有很多比赛尚未打完，而且许多因素不仅会改变积分榜，还会改变每支球队夺取总冠军的机会，但活塞队整个赛季都有一个不变的特点，那就是不断成长、变得更强。

当谈到打出最好的球队时，活塞队已经巩固了自己作为 NBA 最好球队的地位。

活塞队在精英球队中占据主导地位

当谈到一支球队的战绩时，总有比表面上看到的更多的事情。通常情况下，球迷只会通过胜利和失败来判断某些球队在这一年中的表现如何，虽然这显然有一定的影响力，但深入研究每场胜利或每场失利意味着什么，以及对谁来说，可以清楚地了解哪些球队是冠军争夺者，哪些不是冠军争夺者。

好吧，活塞队显然是本赛季的冠军争夺者，这不仅仅是因为他们本赛季赢得了超过 75% 的比赛并且位居东部积分榜榜首。这也不是因为他们最近战胜了纽约尼克斯队或圣安东尼奥马刺队。

当你真正深入研究数据并详细分析活塞队本赛季的每一场胜利时，你会清楚地看到他们已经与 NBA 最好的球队展开了战斗，并且在与每一支球队的比赛中都取得了成功。

活塞队本赛季对阵有胜绩的球队时取得了 19 胜 7 负的战绩，这是 NBA 对阵 0.500 以上球队的最佳战绩。就背景而言，俄克拉荷马城雷霆队今年对阵 0.500 以上的球队的总体战绩为 19 胜 11 负，而马刺队的战绩为 21 胜 11 负。

事实上，今年到目前为止，底特律已经战胜了 NBA 其他前 10 名球队中的 7 支。活塞队唯一尚未击败的前十名球队是马刺队和底特律尚未面对的明尼苏达森林狼队。

就马刺队而言，维克托·温班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 和他的团队最近在底特律以 114-103 艰难获胜，证明他们也像活塞队一样，并且有可能在 6 月看到他们在一切都岌岌可危的情况下走上正轨。还没想到这一点，这两支球队将于 3 月 5 日在圣安东尼奥再次相遇，上演一场万众期待的对决。

就活塞队的战绩而言，在对阵有获胜记录的球队的比赛中，他们的胜率达到73%，这很能说明问题。毕竟，他们并不是在击败联盟中最差的球队。

这支年轻的球队经历过挑战和考验，但他们几乎克服了 2025-26 赛季遇到的所有障碍。活塞队是一支有韧性的球队，他们知道如何克服逆境，最重要的是，他们拥抱每一次的考验和磨难。

除了今年只连续输掉两次比赛之外，活塞队总是期待着大型比赛，就像他们现在的日程安排一样。在对阵马刺队和俄克拉荷马城雷霆队的比赛之后，活塞队现在期待着对阵克利夫兰队的两场比赛，对阵奥兰多队的一场艰苦的客场比赛，然后是在圣安东尼奥举行的常规赛最后一场比赛。

虽然他们对阵马刺队的第一场比赛可能没有像坎宁安和活塞队所希望的那样进行，但这支球队已经准备好拥抱逆境并克服它。

“我们这一周充满了硝烟，”坎宁安在周一输给马刺队后通过底特律自由报说道。 “这太棒了。我们可以看到自己所处的位置，看看联盟的位置，在这三场、五场比赛中学到很多东西，甚至我们参加的最后几场比赛对我们来说都是很好的挑战。从所有这些比赛中可以学到很多东西。我认为我们会从这一切中走出来，为季后赛和一切做好更好的准备。

“这很好，对我们健康有益。”

成为一支争夺冠军的球队并不仅仅意味着您拥有联盟或整个联盟中最好的战绩之一。一支球队的定义是其胜利的质量，活塞队已经清楚地证明了他们有能力击败最好的球队。

骗过他们一次，但不会骗过第二次

除了对阵联盟顶级球队的所有胜利以及从少数失利中恢复过来的持续成功之外，活塞队本赛季还有一些独特之处。

本赛季联盟中只有一支球队两次击败活塞队，而且他们要到2026-27赛季才能再次见到这支球队，因为他们每年都会面对活塞队两次。洛杉矶快船队今年在主客场都击败了底特律活塞队，两场比赛都将活塞队的得分控制在100分以下。

值得注意的是，在 1 月 10 日两支球队的第二次交锋中，活塞队缺席了坎宁安、贾伦·杜伦、以赛亚·斯图尔特以及几乎所有的老将，底特律队以 98-92 输掉了这场比赛。

联盟中没有其他球队可以说他们今年没有输给多个对手至少两场比赛，这也是活塞队如此独特的另一个原因。所有这一切都归结为 JB Bickerstaff 拥有一支年轻、充满渴望的团队，他们在过去几年中共同成长，他们终于将成功的拼图拼凑在一起。

不管他们的日程安排如何，活塞队每场比赛都像季后赛系列赛的第一场比赛一样，这就是为什么他们肩上的这个筹码只会转化为成功。

“我们的球员尊重每个人，并希望给每个人最好的机会，”比克斯塔夫最近说道。 “无论对手是谁，我们的球员总是期待着这些挑战。”

凯德·坎宁安 (Cade Cunningham) 的 MVP 赛季

球队的战绩很重要。他们对阵联盟中其他一些伟大球队的成功很重要。但归根结底，每个冠军组织总有一名球员可以被他们认为是 那家伙。

对于活塞来说， 家伙 凯德·坎宁安（Cade Cunningham），他在职业生涯中迈出了一大步，成为篮球界最好的后卫之一。说实话，仅仅这样说并不能给予坎宁安足够的信任，因为他已经成为整个NBA最好的球员之一，这就是为什么他现在与尼古拉·约基奇、谢伊·吉尔吉斯-亚历山大等人一起在MVP排行榜上名列前茅。

按照这个速度，不难相信坎宁安能够超越其他球星，最终赢得 2025-26 年 NBA MVP 奖。

不管你信不信，从技术上讲，活塞队以 75.4 的胜率拥有联盟最佳战绩，如果这一点成立并且底特律继续保持在积分榜榜首的位置，坎宁安的 MVP 履历只会增长。

就他的表现而言，坎宁安的数据和他对胜利的影响是不言而喻的。

自从活塞队在麦迪逊广场花园以 126-111 击败纽约尼克斯队的比赛中拿下 42 分和 13 次助攻以来，坎宁安已经连续四次拿下两双。在这场特殊的表演之后，比克斯塔夫明确表示，他的球星应该在 MVP 争夺中得到所有人更多的尊重。

“我认为你不能仅仅根据一场比赛或一个声明来选择 MVP。他整个赛季都是这样，”比克斯塔夫说。 “他统治了球场的两端，并在很大程度上影响了胜利。

“归功于他，归功于他的工作，归功于他的体能，他渴望胜利的意志，他成为一名伟大队友和领导者的能力。这就是他整个赛季的表现。”

活塞队击败了最好的球队，而对于联盟中的其他球队来说，可怕的是底特律现在比他们在本赛季第一场比赛时更好。

到季后赛开始时，活塞队已经做好了迎接面前挑战的准备，如果说东部有哪支球队最有机会赢得 12 场季后赛胜利从而进入 NBA 总决赛，那就是活塞队了。

Not long ago, the Detroit Pistons were looked down upon by the rest of the NBA. Cade Cunningham led his team to only 54 combined games in his first three seasons in the league, and the organization was not even close to being a threat in the East.

Even other teams were mocking the Pistons, with Kyle Kuzma famously saying that no one “wants to be that team” after the Pistons lost their 28th consecutive game during the 2023–24 season, which remains the longest losing streak in NBA history. That was the lowest level for this organization, but times have changed a lot.

Now in his fifth season, Cunningham has led the Pistons to new heights, and the team is currently on pace to not only surpass the 54-win mark in the young star’s first three years in the NBA, but also win at least 60 games for only the third time in franchise history.

The Pistons made the Eastern Conference Finals both times they won at least 60 games in a season, the most recent being 20 years ago in 2006. Although Detroit fell just short of reaching the NBA Finals that season, they did win a championship during the 1988–89 season, a season in which they went 63–19 overall.

This season, the Pistons are following in the footsteps of their past, as they currently hold a strong hold on the top spot in the Eastern Conference standings and have earned the right to call themselves the team to beat en route to the NBA Finals when the playoffs begin.

Although there is still a lot of basketball left to be played and many factors can change not only the standings, but every team’s chances of capturing a championship, one thing has remained consistent throughout the season with this Pistons team only growing and getting stronger.

When it comes to playing the best of the best, the Pistons have established themselves as the best in the NBA.

Pistons are dominating specific teams

There is always more than meets the eye when it comes to a team’s record. Often, fans will only look at wins and losses to determine how good certain organizations are over the course of the year, and while this can obviously hold some significance, what each win or each loss means and to whom it paints a clear picture of which teams are championship contenders and which are not.

Well, the Pistons are clearly title contenders this season, and it’s not just because they have won more than 75 percent of their games this season and remain on top of the East standings. It’s not even because of their recent wins over the New York Knicks or San Antonio Spurs.

When you really dive into the numbers and break down each of the Pistons’ wins this season, it becomes clear that they have battled against the best teams in the NBA and found success against each of them.

The Pistons have gone 19–7 against teams with winning records this season, the best record against teams over .500 in the NBA. For context, the Oklahoma City Thunder are 19-11 overall, and the Spurs are 21-11 against teams above .500 this year.

In fact, Detroit has wins over seven of the other top 10 NBA teams so far this year. The only teams in the top 10 that the Pistons have not yet defeated are the Spurs and the Minnesota Timberwolves, who Detroit has yet to face.

In terms of the Spurs, Victor Wembanyama and his crew recently pulled off a hard-fought 114-103 win in Detroit, proving they are just as good as the Pistons and potentially seeing them on the road in June with everything on the line. Before we even think about it, these two teams will meet again in a highly anticipated clash on March 5 in San Antonio.

As far as the Pistons’ record is concerned, winning 73 percent of their games against teams with winning records speaks volumes. After all, it’s not like they’re beating the worst teams in the league.

This young team has been challenged and tested, yet they have overcome almost every obstacle thrown at them during the 2025-26 season. The Pistons are a resilient group that understands what it takes to overcome adversity, and most importantly, they embrace each trial and tribulation that comes their way.

Aside from only losing back-to-back games twice this entire year, the Pistons always look forward to marquee matchups like the one on their schedule right now. After games against the Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder, the Pistons now look forward to two games against Cleveland, a tough road game against Orlando and then the final regular season matchup in San Antonio.

Although their first game against the Spurs did not go as Cunningham and the Pistons expected, this team is willing to accept and overcome adversity.

“We’ve had a week full of smoke,” Cunningham said, via the Detroit Free Press, after Monday’s loss to the Spurs. “It’s great. We get to see where we are, see where the league is, learn a lot in these three games, five games, even the last few games we’ve played have all been good challenges for us. There’s been a lot to learn from all these games. I think we’ll come out of all of this better and more prepared for the playoffs and everything.”

“It’s good, it’s healthy for us.”

Being a championship-contending team doesn’t necessarily mean you have one of the best records in your conference or league at large. A team is defined by the quality of its wins, and the Pistons have clearly proven that they have what it takes to beat the best of the best.

Fool them once, but not twice

Aside from consistent success against the top teams in the league with all of their wins and some of their losses, the Pistons have something unique this season.

Only one team in the league has beaten the Pistons twice this season, and it’s a team they won’t see again until the 2026-27 season, as they face them twice a year. The LA Clippers defeated Detroit both home and away this year, holding the Pistons to under 100 points in both contests.

It is worth noting that the Pistons were without Cunningham, Jalen Duren, Isaiah Stewart and almost all of their veteran contributors in the second meeting between these teams on January 10, a game Detroit lost 98–92.

No other team in the league can say that they haven’t lost at least two games to multiple opponents this year, which is another reason why the Pistons are so unique. What all this means is that JB Bickerstaff has a young, hungry team that has grown together over the last few years, and they are finally putting the pieces of the puzzle together on their way to success.

Regardless of what happens on their schedule, the Pistons play every game like it is Game 1 of a playoff series, which is why this chip on their shoulders will only lead to success in the future.

“Our guys respect everybody and want everybody to do their best,” Bickerstaff said recently. “No matter who the opponent is, our people always look forward to those challenges.”

Cade Cunningham’s MVP-like season

A team’s record matters. Their success against some of the other great teams in the league matters. But at the end of the day, every Championship organization always has a player they can refer to Man.

For piston, that Boy Cade Cunningham is here, and he has taken a huge step forward in his career to become one of the best guards in basketball. Honestly, just saying that doesn’t give Cunningham enough credit, as he has become one of the best players in the entire NBA, which is why he currently sits atop the MVP rankings alongside Nikola Jokic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and others.

At this rate, it’s not hard to believe that Cunningham can surpass these other stars and win the 2025-26 NBA MVP award.

Believe it or not, the Pistons technically own the best record in the league with a 75.4 winning percentage, and Cunningham’s MVP resume will only grow if that comes true and Detroit remains on top of the standings.

As far as his production goes, Cunningham’s numbers and his impact on wins speak for themselves.

Cunningham recorded four consecutive double-doubles during his 42-point, 13-assist night as the Pistons defeated the New York Knicks 126-111 at Madison Square Garden. After this special performance, Bickerstaff made it clear that his star deserves the most respect in the MVP race.

Bickerstaff said, “I don’t think you pick an MVP based on just one game or one statement. He’s been that way for the entire season.” “He dominated at both ends of the field and influenced the win in a big way.

“Credit to him, credit to his work, credit to his conditioning, his will to win, his ability to be a great teammate and lead. He’s been like that all season long.”

The Pistons have beaten the best, and the scary thing for every other team in the league is that Detroit is better now than they were in the first game of the season.

By the time the playoffs begin, the Pistons will be ready for the challenges ahead of them, and if any team in the East has the best chance to win 12 playoff games to reach the NBA Finals, it is the Pistons.

NBA insider Mark J. Spears said Wednesday that he would choose LeBron James over Luka Doncic as the Los Angeles Lakers’ closer in late-game situations, citing James’ versatility and track record in tough times.

Speaking on NBA Today, Spears pointed to the final sequence of the Lakers’ 110-109 loss to the Orlando Magic on Tuesday night, when Los Angeles had 6.7 seconds left and a chance to win. James inbounded the ball to Doncic, who then gave James an open look for a contested fadeway 3-pointer over Jonathan Isaac on the left wing.

“There aren’t a lot of players in the NBA who close out games better than LeBron James and in a one-to-two minute span, Luka made three shots, Austin made three shots. LeBron James is standing on the sideline and Desmond Benn is guarding him, he’s taller than Desmond Benn, fifty pounds heavier, and he’s there when they’re doing that one-on-one. And I think as great as Luka is, I want the ball. In LeBron James’ hands because he can take the ball to the basket, pass out to Luka, pass out to Austin, I don’t think he should have taken the ball out at the end of the game… and he’s too close and he didn’t get a chance to pass.

LeBron James, Luka Doncic’s stat lines fuel Lakers close debate

James finished with 21 points, six rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 32 minutes. He shot 8 for 13 from the field and 3 for 4 from the free-throw line, while also knocking down two 3-pointers.

Doncic recorded 22 points, 15 assists and nine rebounds in 38 minutes but struggled with efficiency. He shot 8 of 24 from the field, 2 of 10 from 3-point range, and 4 of 9 from the free-throw line.

The late-game decision has fueled discussion about the roles played on key possessions for the Lakers, who fell to 34-23 with the loss and lost their second consecutive game. A four-time NBA champion and four-time MVP, James has long been considered one of the league’s most reliable finishers, especially in playoff settings. Doncic, meanwhile, has built a reputation as a high-usage playmaker capable of creating shots under pressure.

The Lakers are now trying to regroup as they begin a two-game road trip against the Phoenix Suns (33-26) on Thursday night starting at 6:00 pm PT. With competition tight in the Western Conference standings, clarity in late-game execution could prove crucial as Los Angeles enters the final stretch of the regular season.

周三晚上，休斯敦火箭队迅速击败了倒霉的萨克拉门托国王队。半场结束时他们已经领先 27 分，因此，包括阿尔佩伦·森贡和凯文·杜兰特在内的一些最好的球员并不需要延长上场时间。但面对实力强劲的国王队，火箭队的球星们不需要太多的上场时间就能造成伤害。

事实上，在战胜国王队的比赛中，Sengun 取得了 2025-26 赛季的第三次三双，拿下 26 分、13 个篮板和 11 次助攻，摧毁了人手不足的萨克拉门托前线。通过这样做，这位火箭球星创造了一些历史。

正如 X（以前的 Twitter）上的 Real App 帐户所指出的那样，尽管只有 23 岁，Sengun 现在在 NBA 历史上 25/10/10 场比赛中锋中排名第 10。

森贡仍然是火箭队的主要进攻枢纽，本赛季在弗雷德·范弗利特受伤期间，他成为了球队事实上的控球后卫。本赛季森贡和火箭队经历了一些艰难的时刻，但这是这位土耳其球星的最佳状态——一个在内线得分手的破坏性球，他可以利用他吸引的注意力创造出令人难以置信的表现，从而让队友变得更好。

对于据称苦苦挣扎的火箭队来说，一切都是好事

尽管火箭队本赛季经历了很多成长的阵痛，但他们不知何故位居西部第三。这证明了他们每场比赛的高性能，即使在球队存在荒谬的不一致的情况下，他们仍然是联盟中最好的球队之一。

这就是火箭队所需要的一场胜利——一场令人信服的胜利，让他们最好的球员比平时更少上场时间，尤其是当他们在背靠背对阵奥兰多魔术队的第二场比赛即将到来时。

The Houston Rockets took on the hapless Sacramento Kings in quick action on Wednesday night. They already had a 27-point lead at halftime, and as a result, some of their best players, including Alpern Sengun and Kevin Durant, did not have much need to play extended minutes. But compared to the Kings, the Rockets stars didn’t need to play much time to do their damage.

In fact, in their win over the Kings, Sengun recorded his third triple-double of the 2025-26 campaign, averaging 26 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists in annihilation of the shorthanded Sacramento frontline. In doing so, the Rockets star made a little history.

Despite only being 23 years old, Seungun now has the 10th-most 25/10/10 games by a center in NBA history, as reported by the Real App account on X (formerly Twitter).

Sengun remains the Rockets’ primary offensive center, and has served as the team’s de facto point guard this season amid an injury to Fred VanVleet. There have been tough moments for Sengun and the Rockets this season, but the Turkish star is at his best – a wrecking ball of a scorer in the paint who can make his teammates better by using his focus to create incredible looks.

All’s reportedly good for the struggling Rockets

Even though a lot of trouble is brewing for the Rockets this season, they somehow sit in third place in the Western Conference. It’s a testament to their high performance levels on a game-to-game basis that they remain one of the best teams in a stacked conference, even amid the team’s ridiculous inconsistencies.

It was the kind of win the Rockets needed – a solid win that allowed their best players to play fewer minutes than usual, especially as they faced a tough game against the Orlando Magic for the second straight match.

当 NBA 考虑扩张想法时，西雅图的话题自然而然地转向了哪些球员最终会穿上绿色和金色的球衣。虽然联盟尚未正式批准新的特许经营权，但基础工作正在太空针塔附近奠定。当超音速队最终回归时，他们将需要基石，而一位前雷尼尔海滩高中的杰出球员正在提出令人信服的理由，使其成为愿望清单的首位。德章泰·穆雷作为目标是完全合理的，新奥尔良鹈鹕队可能愿意达成双赢的协议。

穆雷在社交媒体上非常活跃，在海鹰队的超级碗比赛中为他们加油。发声者队和水手队最近也受到了一些喜爱。从财务上来说，他的合同对于未来两个赛季的扩张球队来说是完美的。如果 NBA 需要更长的时间做出决定，那么与城市的联系可能会导致这位 29 岁球员的 2027-28 赛季相对便宜的 3000 万美元球员选项得到延长。

当被问及在 13 个月以来的第一场比赛中，他在首发五人的介绍中受到特别关注时，这位前全明星多次提到了西雅图。

“我的意思是，把我留到最后。先给我打电话。没关系。我在NBA，你知道，只是一个来自西雅图的孩子。所以，这是一种祝福，”穆雷分享道。 “我内心有很多情感，你知道我在说什么吗？我有我的家人在这里。所以，是的，我当然很感激。”

“伙计，（从伤病康复中恢复过来）太棒了。就像我说的，你知道，我只是一个来自西雅图的孩子。我在NBA，我经历过很多事情，”穆雷补充道。 “但我不会找任何借口。我挺起胸膛，昂首挺胸，保持微笑，我已经准备好看看接下来会发生什么。我知道上帝在场上场下都为我准备了一些伟大的事情。”

对于西雅图一家需要在开幕日出售门票、球衣和希望的初创公司来说，可能没有比来自雷尼尔海滩的孩子更好的首要目标了，他从未停止代表自己的城市。

As the NBA considers expansion ideas, the conversation in Seattle has naturally turned to which players will ultimately wear the green and gold. Although the league has not yet formally approved new franchises, the groundwork is being laid near the Space Needle. When the SuperSonics finally return, they’ll need cornerstone pieces, and a former Rainier Beach High standout is making a compelling case to be at the top of the wish list. Dejounte Murray makes perfect sense as a target and the New Orleans Pelicans may be willing to make a win-win deal.

Murray was very active on social media and cheering on the Seahawks during their Super Bowl run. The Sounders and Mariners have also gotten some love recently. Financially, his contract would be perfect for an expansion team over the next two seasons. If the NBA takes longer to make a decision, City’s connection could lead to an extension of the 29-year-old’s relatively cheap $30 million player option for 2027-28.

When asked about what caught special attention among the starting five introductions in his first game in 13 months, the former All-Star made sure to mention Seattle several times.

“I mean, save me for last. Call me first. It doesn’t matter. I’m in the NBA, you know, a kid from Seattle. So it’s, it’s a blessing,” Murray shared. “I have a lot of emotions, you know what I’m saying? I had my family here. So, yeah, I’m definitely grateful.”

“Man, (coming back from injury rehab) was great. Like I said, you know, I’m a kid from Seattle. I’m in the NBA, and what I’ve been through, like, I’ve been through a lot,” Murray said. “But I have no excuses. I keep my chest out, chin up, keep smiling and I’m just ready to see where it goes from here. I know God has some great things in store for me on and off the field.”

For a Seattle startup that will need to sell tickets, jerseys and hopes of opening day, there’s no better first target than that kid from Rainier Beach who has never stopped visiting his hometown.

洛杉磯湖人隊週三宣布，他們已聘請前維吉尼亞州男籃主教練托尼貝內特擔任他們新的 NBA 選秀顧問。在這個新角色中，貝內特將與執行官羅伯·佩林卡一起在選秀期間和選秀前的湖人隊決策中發揮關鍵作用，協助球員評估、球探以及組織應選擇誰的最終決定。

「我們很高興也很榮幸地歡迎托尼擔任湖人隊籃球運營部門的顧問，」佩林卡在周三的球隊聲明中說道。 「當我們完善並建立我們的 NBA 選秀球探流程時，我們認為沒有比托尼貝內特更好的籃球頭腦可以作為資源了。托尼在塑造高品質、高技能和高智商球員文化方面的記錄受到了所有籃球圈的尊敬和尊重。

“托尼將成為我們籃球領導層、球探以及整個選秀部門的寶貴財富。我們真的很興奮。”

56 歲的貝內特於 2024 年從弗吉尼亞大學主教練的職位上退休，他的決定震驚了大學籃球氛圍中的許多人。他在三次被評為年度最佳教練並在 2019 年帶領維吉尼亞隊奪得全國冠軍後離開，成為第四位以主教練身份贏得全國冠軍的前 NBA 球員。

作為維吉尼亞隊的主教練，貝內特在 ACC 比賽中取得了 364 勝 136 勝 (0.728) 的成績，其中包括 189 勝 82 勝 (0.697)。

「當羅布和我開始交談時，對我來說最突出的是有機會幫助這樣一個傳奇的組織，」貝內特說。 “湖人隊有著不言而喻的傳統，因此能夠融入其中並盡我所能幫助羅布和湖人隊，這令人興奮。”

在維吉尼亞州，貝內特多年來因培養了幾位著名的 NBA 天才而聞名，如馬爾科姆·布羅格登、喬·哈里斯、德安德烈·亨特、特雷·墨菲三世、瑞恩·鄧恩、傑伊·赫夫和泰·傑羅姆。

東尼貝內特加入湖人隊營運部門

貝內特加入籃球營運團隊大約一周前，湖人隊聘請了多年來一直擔任洛杉磯道奇隊關鍵高管的隆·羅森（Lon Rosen）擔任該組織的新業務營運總裁。羅森是由湖人隊新老闆馬克·沃爾特精心挑選的，他也是道奇隊的所有者。

沃爾特於 10 月以 100 億美元從珍妮巴斯及其家人手中完成了對湖人隊的收購。

根據 ESPN 報道，隨著湖人隊顯然進入了以超級巨星盧卡·東契奇為首的新時代，羅森最近明確表示，佩林卡將繼續擔任球隊管理層的負責人。

「我只負責業務方面的工作，羅布有權做他所做的事情，」羅森說。 「聽著，我和羅布的關係非常好。我從羅布·佩林卡代表科比的時候就認識他了 [Bryant]。我很多很多年前就認識他了。 」

華特將湖人隊打造成 NBA 強隊的願景，就像他在美國職棒大聯盟 (MLB) 中對道奇隊所做的那樣，在羅森和貝內特的最新加盟後似乎正在成形。

NBA great and basketball analyst Dwyane Wade recently wrote an article for athletic Highlighting the three best leaders he has played with in his career. This piece stays true to his Heat roots, as he highlights Pat Riley, Shaquille O’Neal, and Udonis Haslem.

But missing from the list was LeBron James, who is often considered one of the great leaders in the NBA and was Wade’s co-star when the two won two championships in 2012 and 2013. Regarding Pat Riley, Wade talked about Pat’s attention to detail and ability to remain calm under fire.

“Where Pat was great was his attention to detail. That’s something I try to pride myself on, even now… A lot of times, as a player, your mind, your emotions, your anxiety are all over the place. You make some mistakes, and you start thinking too much. He was a cool guy. Whenever I went over to him during the game, he would put his hand on me and give me a calm feeling and reset me.”

Speaking about Shaq, he talked about his defensive ability and the mentor role that O’Neal played in his early career en route to his first championship.

“He showed me tricks. He showed me how to be a superstar on and off the court. He even gave me the nickname “Flash.” He sat down and talked to me about authenticity and making sure my DNA was in everything I did. It changed the way I went into meetings, it changed my brand and the way I thought about myself.

And as for Udonis Haslem, whom Wade often praises when talking about his Heat tenure, he talked about his ability as a leader and his respect for his voice.

“UD was never one of the top guys when it came to stardom, but he still had the loudest voice in the locker room. When he talked, everyone listened because we knew it wasn’t coming from a selfish place at all. It was coming from a guy who would give everything in his body for you in any game. He’d take penalties for you. He was making the least money as an undrafted guy, but he cared. No. He made sure everyone in the locker room followed the rules, even when LeBron James and Chris Bosh came in.

This article was less about the chemistry on the court and more about his unique experience with these locker room leaders. But Wade has spoken highly of James in other places, and James has spoken candidly about how his partnership with Wade was important to his career.

In comments received after Wade and James’ final game against each other in December 2018, LeBron talked about Wade and their successful pairing.

“I personally think I would have been a lot more successful in this league without D-Wade,” LeBron said. “But I really needed him to accomplish what I wanted to accomplish in this league, and that is to win at the highest level. And that’s when I made the jump, and what he did for me when I went to Miami, I appreciate more than I can express in words. You have to think about how I spent the first 25 years of my life in Akron, Ohio. I spent 18 years in high school, and then the first seven years of my professional career I’m still “I was living in Akron, Ohio, so that’s all I knew.”

俄克拉荷马城雷霆队在周二晚上对阵多伦多猛龙队的比赛中人手不足，但伤病对球队来说并不是问题。谢伊·吉尔吉斯-亚历山大、贾伦·威廉姆斯和阿贾伊·米切尔都被排除在比赛之外，这意味着切特·霍姆格伦、卡森·华莱士和以赛亚·乔的肩上将承担沉重的工作量。

The Charlotte Hornets struck gold with the selection of sharpshooting wing Kon Nueppel with the fourth overall pick of the 2025 NBA Draft. Knueppel has made an immediate impact for the Hornets thanks to his consistently excellent play, leading them to the Eastern Conference playoff picture. Many believed that his skills would easily translate to the NBA game, but even Knueppel’s most optimistic supporters would not have guessed that he would play so well so early in his professional career.

On Tuesday night, in a comfortable win over the faltering Chicago Bulls, Knueppel had another solid regular season, scoring 21 points on an efficient 7-12 from the field and 3-6 from beyond the arc as the Hornets blew a lead of over 30 points.

Knueppel entered the night just two three-pointers short of his career-high 200 points; In surpassing the triple, he needed only 58 games to surpass that figure, which is the fastest ever performance in NBA history, as reported by the official ClutchPoints account on X (formerly Twitter).

The Hornets sharpshooter is quickly on his way to becoming one of the most prolific outside shooters in league history, and considering how important shooting skills are, especially in today’s NBA, Knueppel is well on his way to becoming one of the league’s best players.

Kon Nueppel is the jewel of the Hornets’ rebuild

It’s not at all clear that Knuppel is truly the crown jewel of the Hornets’ rebuild. LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller are incredible players in their own right, but Knueppel’s unstoppable scoring ability and efficient volume production from beyond the arc have made him one of the most valuable players in the association, especially considering he is only 20 years old.

On the season, Knueppel averaged 19.2 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game on 49/44/89 shooting splits.

夏洛特黄蜂队在 2025 年 NBA 选秀大会上以第四顺位选中了神射手侧翼康·克努佩尔 (Kon Knueppel)，从而获得了金牌。克努佩尔对黄蜂队产生了立竿见影的影响，凭借他一贯的出色发挥，带领黄蜂队冲进东部季后赛。许多人相信他的技能可以很容易地转化为 NBA 比赛，但即使是最乐观的克努佩尔支持者也无法预见到他会在职业生涯的早期打得这么好。

周二晚上，在轻松战胜陷入困境的芝加哥公牛队的比赛中，克努佩尔又打出了一场例行的稳定比赛，他以 7-12 的高效投篮和 3-6 的三分线外拿下 21 分，帮助黄蜂队将领先优势扩大到 30 分以上。

克努佩尔在当晚仅差两个三分球，距离他职业生涯的 200 分大关仅差两分；在完成三连冠时，他只用了 58 场比赛就突破了这一纪录，正如 X（以前的 Twitter）上的 ClutchPoints 官方帐户所提到的那样，这是 NBA 历史上最快的球员。

这位黄蜂队的神枪手正在快速成为联盟历史上最多产的外线射手之一，考虑到投篮技术的重要性，尤其是在当今的 NBA 中，克努佩尔正在成为联盟中最好的球员之一。

康·克努佩尔是黄蜂队重建的宝石

毫无疑问，克努佩尔确实是黄蜂重建队皇冠上的明珠。拉梅洛·鲍尔和布兰登·米勒本身就是令人难以置信的球员，但克努佩尔不可阻挡的得分能力和高效的三分线外产出很快使他成为联盟中最有价值的球员之一，特别是考虑到他只有 20 岁。

本赛季，克努佩尔场均贡献 19.2 分、5.5 个篮板和 3.5 次助攻，投篮命中率为 49/44/89。

As the Memphis Grizzlies are playing the final weeks of a losing season that could yield a premium pick in the NBA Draft, Tuomas Isalo’s focus is on incremental gains. That progress will be based on sound, fundamental basketball that every high school hooper should know. However, fans may feel stressed given the current marching orders. Lose enough to improve draft position. Win enough to build a foundation. Do both honestly, even against the lowly Sacramento Kings.

Keeping things simple, relatively speaking, has apparently been a recipe for destruction over the last two dozen or so games.

“I think the biggest thing is to play somewhat consistent basketball,” Isalo said. “We were able to immediately integrate some new guys into the cycle of the game. It wasn’t easy. We tried to keep the cognitive load to a minimum. Just do the basics. Those days we had to practice (after the All-Star Game break) were very important in that regard.”

Losing Ja Morant (injury) and Jaren Jackson Jr. (trade) was a real turning point for a small-market franchise looking to get back to contention quickly. While most NBA staffs got a chance to rest during the break, Isalo’s staff prepared for a reset.

“We worked to make sure everyone was going in the same direction and knew what was expected of them in different situations,” Isalo shared. “For that to happen, you need to stabilize some of the roles. So when we have new guys coming in, we’ve focused on keeping their roles as similar as possible from night to night so they can have some stability.”

In what Grizzlies (21-35) fans and league observers might call a moral tank job, Isalo’s consistency-first approach is central. They are competitive but fall six games behind the LA Clippers for the final NBA Play-in Tournament spot. Still, as more players return from injury and the front office fills out the roster with 10-day contracts, Isalo plans to increase the complexity for those who have shown they can handle it.

“Let’s say there are people who are more fluent in our language. We can move them around a bit and see what we haven’t uncovered yet about the players,” Isalo explained. “Because they’re playing with different players in different roles, you can suddenly see that a guy is capable of doing something that maybe wasn’t as obvious before.”

Finding hidden gems is what separates a well-run rebuilding season from a doomed one. Sending the current group into the summer with habits and film that will serve them next season, no matter where the draft lands, is a top priority. A win would be welcome, Isalo made clear, but not at the expense of the bigger picture. The Finnish coach will have to rely on lessons learned over the next six weeks to avoid another six months of trouble in 2027.

So, for now, the measure of success in the final weeks won’t lie in the standings, but in whether the Grizzlies establish a foundation for the offseason. If Memphis can finish the year playing organized, disciplined basketball, the team hopes that a tough 2025-26 campaign will at least create clarity as we move toward a new era.

当陷入困境的孟菲斯灰熊队在失去赛季的最后几周比赛中，他们可能会在 NBA 选秀中获得优质选秀权时，托马斯·伊萨洛 (Tuomas Iisalo) 专注于增量收益。这一进步将建立在每个高中篮球运动员都应该了解的健全、基础的篮球基础上。然而，鉴于目前的行军令，球迷们可以感受到紧张气氛。损失足够以改善选秀定位。赢得足够的胜利来建立基础。即使面对地位低下的萨克拉门托国王队，也要保持正直。

相对而言，保持事情简单显然是完成过去两打左右游戏的秘诀。

“我认为最重要的是打出连贯的篮球，”伊萨洛说。 “我们能够立即将一些新人加入轮换阵容中。这并不容易。我们试图将认知负荷保持在最低限度。只做基础知识。在这方面，我们必须练习的那些日子（全明星赛休息后）非常重要。”

失去贾·莫兰特（因伤）和小贾伦·杰克逊（交易）标志着这支小市场球队寻求快速重返竞争的真正转折点。虽然大多数 NBA 工作人员在中场休息期间都得到了休息，但伊萨洛的工作人员却制定了重新安排的计划。

“我们努力确保每个人都朝着同一个方向前进，并知道在不同情况下对他们的期望是什么，”伊萨洛分享道。 “为此，你需要稳定一些角色。因此，当我们有新人加入时，我们会尽可能让他们的角色尽可能相似，这样他们就能找到一些稳定性。”

伊萨洛的稳定性第一的方法是灰熊队（21-35）球迷和联盟观察员可能称之为道德坦克工作的核心。他们很有竞争力，但在争夺 NBA 入围赛最后席位方面落后洛杉矶快船队六场。尽管如此，随着越来越多的球员从伤病中恢复，并且管理层用10天的合同来充实球队名单，伊萨洛计划为那些已经证明自己能够应对的球员增加复杂性。

“比方说，这些人的语言更流利。我们可以稍微移动一下他们，看看我们还没有发现关于球员的什么，”伊萨洛解释道。 “因为他们与扮演不同角色的不同球员一起比赛，你会突然发现一个人能够做一些以前可能不那么明显的事情。”

隐藏的瑰宝发现是区分一个运行良好的重建赛季和一个浪费的重建赛季的关键。无论选秀在哪里，让当前的团队带着能够转化为下个赛季的习惯和电影进入夏天，是首要任务。伊萨洛明确表示，胜利将受到欢迎，但不能以牺牲大局为代价。这位芬兰教练需要吸取未来六周的经验教训，才能在 2027 年度过又一个六个月的艰难时期。

因此，目前衡量最后几周成功与否的标准不是积分榜，而是灰熊队是否为休赛期奠定了基础。如果孟菲斯能够在今年结束时打出有组织、有纪律的篮球比赛，球队希望艰难的 2025-26 赛季至少能够为进入新时代带来清晰的思路。

Recently, Indiana Pacers coach Rick Carlisle made headlines by hitting back at the NBA for the franchise’s fine that revolved around the team allegedly sitting healthy players in an effort to tank. Carlisle claimed that the league had insisted that the injured Aaron Nesmith play, even after being prescribed medication for his ankle injury.

Now, the NBA has hit back at Carlisle’s harsh words with its own description of the events.

“Coach Carlisle’s description of the process involved in the decision to fine the Indiana Pacers is inaccurate. An independent physician led the medical review,” a league spokesperson said, per Brett Siegel, formerly of Twitter, via The Athletic. “…The Pacers confirmed that he provided all information requested by the league and the team stated that an interview with Coach Carlisle or the team physician was not necessary.”

Apparently, Carlisle and the league front office are not on the same page about what happened regarding Nesmith.

The NBA has been trying to crack down on tanking in recent weeks, as well as fining the Utah Jazz a hefty amount for sitting healthy players as teams try to secure the best draft picks.

The 2026 NBA Draft class is widely considered loaded, and the process of teaming a blue-chip prospect with a healthy Tyrese Haliburton next year is certainly an attractive one for the Pacers.

However, all things considered, it seems there are even more questionable tanking practices going on around the league than what is happening in Indiana.

波士顿凯尔特人队在全明星周末后表现出色，周日继续他们的西海岸之旅，再次以井喷的方式战胜洛杉矶湖人队。这场胜利到来之际，球队正在等待杰森·塔图姆的进一步消息，这位受伤的球星许多人怀疑他最早可能在本赛季回归。

然而，有一个人认为无论塔图姆是否在阵容中，凯尔特人队都能在本赛季实现目标，那就是ESPN的前波士顿大个子肯德里克·帕金斯，他最近在First Take上转达了他的想法。

“他们无需 [Jayson] 塔图姆。 ……他们是 NBA 中最危险的球队，因为他们的期望为零，”帕金斯在 X（前身为 Twitter）上的 First Take 说道。

帕金斯还认为波士顿拥有“比赛中最好的双向球员杰伦·布朗，因为联盟中没有其他球员能做到他在得分上排名前五，在对手投篮命中率上排名前五的防守球员。”

事实上，布朗今年在攻防两端都做到了这一点，尽管科怀·伦纳德、维克托·温班亚马和其他几名球员的球迷可能会强烈不同意帕金斯的评估。

尽管如此，在这个节骨眼上，即使塔图姆不在阵容中，凯尔特人队也开始看起来像一个真正的威胁。有一种观点认为，考虑到球队节奏至少会暂时被打乱，以及这位球星还有很多铁锈需要摆脱，塔图姆本赛季的仓促回归实际上可能不利于波士顿 2025-26 赛季的计划。到目前为止，塔图姆在他的职业生涯中也没有成为一名出色的季后赛表现者，去年对阵纽约尼克斯队的比赛中，这种情况仍在继续。

无论如何，凯尔特人队的客场之旅将在周二继续对阵菲尼克斯太阳队。

洛杉矶湖人队最近以 111-89 惨败于波士顿凯尔特人队，这场失利凸显了他们在情绪和战术上的弱点。虽然这场比赛在三个季度中都保持着激烈的竞争，但在杰伦·布朗的 32 分表现的推动下，波士顿队在最后一局完全控制了比赛。洛杉矶的挫败感达到了沸点，主教练 JJ 雷迪克、球员奥斯汀·里夫斯和马库斯·斯马特都因争议裁判而被判技术犯规。

雷迪克尤其直言不讳地谈到凯尔特人队中锋尼米亚斯·奎塔（Neemias Queta）的失手，据报道，后者穿过篮筐封盖了勒布朗·詹姆斯的上篮。就连拿下 25 分的卢卡·东契奇 (Luka Doncic) 也笑着指出，即使他不是受罚最多的人，裁判显然也有问题。

输给顶级对手给湖人队带来了一个令人不安的趋势，湖人队的战绩为34胜22负。根据 X 上的 Jovan Buha 的说法，湖人队在与 0.600 胜率或更好的球队（战绩排名前 10 的球队）的比赛中确实遇到了困难。

他们的战绩是 4 胜 11 负，其中三场胜利发生在赛季的前两周（MIN 两次，SAS 一次）。 11场比赛中，有10场比赛的损失都是两位数。

与联盟精英球队相比缺乏竞争力，引发了人们对他们作为冠军争夺者的上限的严重质疑，因为他们似乎正在失去与顶级人才进行打击所需的“重拳”。

在场上的斗争中，当晚成为勒布朗·詹姆斯的反思时刻，他观看了球队为传奇教练帕特·莱利的雕像揭幕的仪式。詹姆斯对莱利表达了“最大的敬意”，他在迈阿密热火队期间曾在莱利手下工作过。

詹姆斯承认这位“Showtime”架构师作为教练和执行官对这项运动产生了巨大影响，但他指出，虽然人们的天性会想知道他们在一起的过去“会发生什么”，但他仍然专注于现在。

随着湖人队的前进，如果他们希望获得另一面旗帜，他们必须找到一种方法将这种尊重转化为对阵顶级对手的结果。

随着 NBA 现在定期在巴黎、伦敦、墨西哥城和柏林等城市举办常规赛，围绕潜在的欧洲联盟或国际扩张球队的讨论正在升温。具体来说，NBA 不断推动将常规赛篮球带到国际舞台的努力可以依靠戴森·丹尼尔斯和亚特兰大老鹰队的支持。富有创造力的澳大利亚主教练奎因·斯奈德完全同意，他游说在 NBA 全明星周末期间举办更多欧洲和奥地利的常规赛。

对于斯奈德来说，在这个日益全球化的行业中，这一举措是理所当然的。 NBA 加强与国际市场联系的努力对每个人来说都是积极的发展。

“我认为（NBA 欧洲项目）非常棒，”斯奈德告诉 ClutchPoints。 “联盟是全球性的，拥有来自世界各地的球员。所以在欧洲打球，无论是在伦敦、巴黎还是柏林，现在到处都有比赛。你听说很多欧洲球员在来到这里之前观看 NBA，我认为越来越多的美国孩子在国际上了解篮球。”

斯奈德指出，欧洲人才进入联盟的漫长渠道是篮球国际根基不断增长的证据，同时指出影响力是双​​向流动的。

“在世界杯或奥运会期间，你通常会看到这种情况的激增，”斯奈德补充道。 “这项运动在国际上扩展得越多，对 NBA 的每个人来说就越好。因此，前往那里的球队和球员有很多好处。无论是文化利益还是只是提高人们对我们所生活的世界其他地区的认识。”

随着决策者希望利用这项运动的全球势头，认可的增加反映出教练和球员越来越多的情绪，即联盟未来的成功在很大程度上依赖于其超越国界的思考能力。对于斯奈德来说，策略很简单； NBA在海外的投资越多，联盟在国内的实力就越强。

With the NBA now regularly hosting regular season games in cities such as Paris, London, Mexico City and Berlin, conversations about potential European leagues or expansion franchises internationally are gaining momentum. In particular, the NBA’s ongoing effort to bring regular season basketball to international territories may rely on Dyson Daniels and the Atlanta Hawks for support. Australian and inventive head coach Quin Snyder fully agrees, lobbying for more European and Austrian-based regular season games around the NBA All-Star break.

For Snyder, the initiative comes handy in an industry that has become increasingly global. The NBA’s efforts to strengthen ties with international markets is a positive development for all.

“I think (the NBA Europe project) is great,” Snyder told ClutchPoints. “The league is global and has players from all over the world. So playing in Europe, whether it’s in London, Paris or Berlin, there are games everywhere right now. You hear a lot about European players watching the NBA before they come here, and I think more and more American kids are exposed to basketball internationally.”

Snyder pointed to the long pipeline of European talent entering the league as evidence of basketball’s growing international roots, while influence flows in both directions.

“You usually see an increase during the World Cup or the Olympics,” Snyder said. “The more the game expands internationally, the better it is for everyone in the NBA. So, there are a lot of benefits from teams and players going out there. Whether it’s cultural benefits or raising awareness about other parts of this world that we live in.”

As decision-makers look to take advantage of the game’s global momentum, the increase in support reflects a growing sentiment among coaches and players that the league’s future success depends largely on its ability to think beyond the boundaries. For Snyder, the strategy is straightforward; The more the NBA invests overseas, the stronger the league will be domestically.

The Los Angeles Lakers recently suffered a blowout 111-89 defeat at the hands of the Boston Celtics, a defeat that exposed both emotional and tactical weaknesses. While the matchup remained competitive for three quarters, Boston took complete control in the final frame fueled by a 32-point performance from Jaylen Brown. The frustration in Los Angeles reached its peak when coach JJ Redick and players Austin Reaves and Marcus Smart were all charged with technical fouls for controversial umpiring.

Redick was particularly vocal about a missed goaltending call involving Celtics center Neemias Quetta, who reportedly reached through the rim to block a LeBron James layup. Even Luka Doncic, who struggled for 25 points, said with a smile that substituting was obviously problematic, even if he was not penalized the most.

The loss to a major rival highlights a troubling trend for the 34-22 Lakers. According to Jovan Buha at X, the Lakers have really struggled against teams with a .600 win% or better (top 10 teams by record).

They are 4-11 against them, with three of their wins coming in the first two weeks of the season (twice over Min and once over SAS). 10 out of 11 losses have been by double digits.

This lack of competitiveness against the league’s elite raises significant questions about their ceiling as a championship contender, as it appears they are missing the “punch” needed to trade with top-tier talent.

Amidst the struggles on the court, the evening became a moment of reflection for LeBron James, who watched the team unveil a statue of legendary coach Pat Riley. James expressed his “huge respect” for Riley, whom he worked under with the Miami Heat.

Acknowledging the “Showtime” architect’s extensive impact on the game as both a coach and executive, James said that although it is human nature to think about his past “what could have been”, he remains focused on the present.

As the Lakers move forward, they will have to find a way to translate that respect into results against top-tier opponents if they hope to capture another banner.

The Boston Celtics came out of the All-Star break with another blowout win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday as they continued their West Coast trip. The win came as the team awaits further updates on injured star Jayson Tatum, who many doubt can return any time soon this season.

However, one person who thinks the Celtics can reach their goal this season regardless of whether Tatum is in the lineup is former ESPN big man Kendrick Perkins, who recently took to First Take to express his thoughts.

“They can go to the NBA Finals without [Jayson] Tatum. … They’re the most dangerous team in the NBA because they have no expectations,” Perkins, formerly of First Take on X, said via Twitter.

Perkins also said that Boston has “the best two-way player in the game in Jaylen Brown, because no other player in the league is doing what he is doing in terms of being top five in scoring and top five defensively in opponent field goal percentage.”

In fact, Brown is getting it done on both ends of the floor this year, although fans of Kawhi Leonard, Victor Wembanyama and many other players will strongly disagree with Perkins’ assessment.

Still, at this juncture, the Celtics are starting to look like a real threat even without Tatum in the lineup. There is a theory that Tatum’s hasty return this season could actually work against Boston’s 2025-26 plans, considering the team’s rhythm would be at least temporarily disrupted, and the fact that the star would have a lot of rust to shake off. Tatum also has not distinguished himself as a postseason performer so far in his career, which continued last year against the New York Knicks.

In any case, the Celtics’ road trip continues on Tuesday against the Phoenix Suns.

When it comes to thinking about the gold standard of NBA coaches, not many names come to mind other than Pat Riley. Despite winning championships five times as a head coach, twice as an executive, twice as a player and once as an assistant coach, his titles paint only a part of the picture of his career with the Miami Heat, New York Knicks and Los Angeles Lakers.

Appropriately, Showtime recently unveiled a statue commemorating his legacy, and Riley was asked a simple question about current NBA coaches.

According to a post on And well, as far as that reaction is concerned, it’s no surprise.

Riley, now 80 and still serving as president of the Miami Heat, became the first coach in Los Angeles Lakers history to receive the statue, placing him alongside names like Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O’Neal, Jerry West and Chick Hearn. With the Lakers, Riley reached seven NBA Finals during his nine-season tenure from 1981 to 1990.

However, this is only a small part of his legacy. In his career as a player, assistant coach, head coach and executive, he has nine championship rings, including a 1972 title as a Lakers player, multiple titles as an architect of Showtime, the Miami Heat’s successful 2006 championship as a head coach, and executive titles in 2012 and 2013 during Miami’s Big Three era. He remains the first major North American sports figure to win championships in all four of these roles.

A member of the Hall of Fame since 2008, Riley is often regarded as “The Godfather” of the NBA, and there was never any doubt that he would still wear an Armani suit if he coached in the world’s best basketball league.

当谈到 NBA 教练的黄金标准时，除了帕特·莱利 (Pat Riley) 之外，没有多少名字出现。尽管作为主教练五次夺冠，作为高管两次夺冠，一次作为球员夺冠，一次作为助理教练夺冠，但他的头衔仅描绘了他在迈阿密热火队、纽约尼克斯队和洛杉矶湖人队职业生涯的一部分。

恰如其分的是，Showtime 最近揭开了一座纪念他的雕像，莱利被问到了一个关于现任 NBA 教练的简单问题。

根据记者 Khobi Price 在 X 上的帖子，当被问及如果他今天执教是否仍会穿着阿玛尼西装时，迈阿密热火队主席表示，他希望现任 NBA 教练“回到外套和领带”。嗯，就这种反应而言并不令人意外。

现年 80 岁的莱利仍担任迈阿密热火队总裁，成为洛杉矶湖人队历史上第一位获得雕像的教练，与“魔术师”约翰逊、卡里姆·阿卜杜尔·贾巴尔、科比·布莱恩特、沙奎尔·奥尼尔、杰里·韦斯特和奇克·赫恩等名字并列。莱利在 1981 年至 1990 年的九个赛季​​中随湖人队七次闯入 NBA 总决赛。

然而，这只是他遗产的一小部分。在他作为球员、助理教练、主教练和高管的职业生涯中，他拥有九枚总冠军戒指，包括 1972 年作为湖人队球员获得的冠军戒指、作为 Showtime 建筑师的多个头衔、作为主教练在 2006 年迈阿密热火队突破性夺冠，以及在 2012 年和 2013 年迈阿密三巨头时代获得的高管头衔。他仍然是第一位在所有四个职位上都获得冠军的北美主要体育人物。

自 2008 年起成为名人堂成员的莱利经常被视为 NBA 的“教父”，毫无疑问，如果他在世界上最好的篮球联盟执教，他仍然会穿着阿玛尼西装。

Of course, Barclay is full of hyperbole. Radical, controversial, beloved, unapologetic and iconic. He was like that both on and off the court. On the court, Barkley was one of the defining players of his generation. Although he never won an NBA title, he mesmerized fans and contemporaries alike with explosive toughness.

He was a 5-time NBA All-Star, 1993 NBA MVP, 1988 rebounding champion, two-time Olympic gold medalist, Hall of Famer, and on the NBA 75th Anniversary Team.

Off the court, Barkley lets loose, especially when he’s calling NBA and NCAA basketball on television. Besides, he’s not afraid Venture into politics and social issues.

At 63, Sir Charles remains an undeniable icon that never ages.

毫无疑问，巴克利充满了最高级的说法。傲慢、有争议、受人喜爱、毫无歉意、具有标志性。无论是在场上还是场下，他都是这样的。在球场上，巴克利是他这一代人的标志性球员之一。尽管他从未赢得过NBA总冠军，但他仍然以爆炸性的凶猛吸引了球迷和同时代的人。

他曾五次入选 NBA 全明星、1993 年 NBA MVP、1988 年篮板王、两届奥运会金牌得主、名人堂成员，并入选 NBA 75 周年纪念队。

在球场外，巴克利表现得很放松，尤其是当他在电视上谈论 NBA 和 NCAA 篮球比赛时。不仅如此，他还不怕 涉足政治和社会问题。

俄克拉荷马城——如果俄克拉荷马城雷霆队全明星谢伊·吉尔吉斯-亚历山大再缺席 11 场比赛，他将被取消 2025-26 年 NBA 奖项的参赛资格。根据 ESPN 的最新民意调查，在连续缺席五场比赛后，吉尔吉斯-亚历山大仍然是 MVP 的热门人选，并且即将获得第六场比赛。在对阵布鲁克林篮网队之前，雷霆队主教练马克·戴尼奥周五谈到了这个热门话题。

在雷霆队宣布吉尔杰斯-亚历山大将在一周内接受重新评估后，预计他将缺席接下来的四场比赛。戴尼奥讨论了 NBA 最少 65 场比赛 在他赛前接受媒体采访时。

“还有很多人在思考这些事情，我在思考雷霆队，我在思考我的孩子——这就是我真正在想的，”戴尼奥特说。 “所以，我不知道。我不会参与其中。就决策而言，我们总是会优先考虑我们球员的福祉——他和其他人。

“如果我们必须对某人的健康和福祉做出决定，我们会优先考虑这一点，因为这样做的缺点太大了。谢伊明白这一点。球员们也明白这一点。显然，每个人都知道 65 场比赛的事情，我们希望所有球员都有资格参加。”

这是戴尼奥为他的每个球员设定的目标。但这是从雷霆队的角度出发，而不是为了看到自己的球员获得NBA的奖项和荣誉。

“不是因为奖项，而是因为我们希望优先考虑可用性，”戴尼奥补充道。 “但是当球员们遇到事情时，我们总是保持谨慎，并且总是尽可能保守，因为这对我们的团队来说是最好的事情，更重要的是，对他们的个人职业生涯来说也是如此。”

人手不足的雷霆队将对阵没有吉尔吉斯-亚历山大、贾伦·威廉姆斯和阿贾伊·米切尔的篮网队。

雷霆队谢伊·吉尔杰斯·亚历山大的新伤病时间表

雷霆全明星谢伊·吉尔杰斯·亚历山大因腹部受伤将至少缺席一周。阿贾伊·米切尔（Ajay Mitchell）也面临着同样的伤病，而且左脚踝扭伤，贾伦·威廉姆斯（Jalen Williams）也将因右腿筋扭伤而在两周后接受重新评估。

正如雷霆队主教练马克·戴尼奥特所指出的，卫冕冠军在进入季后赛之前，始终会优先考虑球员的长期健康，而不是常规赛和 NBA 奖项。雷霆队似乎并不急于将吉尔吉斯-亚历山大带回来，威廉姆斯和米切尔也是如此。

俄克拉荷馬城——如果俄克拉荷馬城雷霆隊全明星謝伊·吉爾吉斯-亞歷山大再缺席 11 場比賽，他將被取消 2025-26 年 NBA 獎項的參賽資格。根據 ESPN 的最新民意調查，在連續缺席五場比賽後，吉爾吉斯-亞歷山大仍然是 MVP 的熱門人選，並且即將獲得第六場比賽。在對陣布魯克林籃網隊之前，雷霆隊主教練馬克·戴尼奧週五談到了這個熱門話題。

在雷霆隊宣布吉爾傑斯-亞歷山大將在一周內接受重新評估後，預計他將缺席接下來的四場比賽。戴尼奧討論了 NBA 最少 65 場比賽 在他賽前接受媒體採訪時。

「還有很多人在思考這些事情，我在思考雷霆隊，我在思考我的孩子——這就是我真正在想的，」戴尼奧特說。 「所以，我不知道。我不會參與其中。就決策而言，我們總是會優先考慮我們球員的福祉——他和其他人。

「如果我們必須對某人的健康和福祉做出決定，我們會優先考慮這一點，因為這樣做的缺點太大了。謝伊明白這一點。球員們也明白這一點。顯然，每個人都知道 65 場比賽的事情，我們希望所有球員都有資格參加。”

這是戴尼奧為他的每個球員設定的目標。但這是從雷霆隊的角度出發，而不是為了看到自己的球員獲得NBA的獎項和榮譽。

「不是因為獎項，而是因為我們希望優先考慮可用性，」戴尼奧補充道。 “但是當球員們遇到事情時，我們總是保持謹慎，並且總是盡可能保守，因為這對我們的團隊來說是最好的事情，更重要的是，對他們的個人職業生涯來說也是如此。”

人手不足的雷霆隊將對陣沒有吉爾吉斯-亞歷山大、賈倫威廉斯和阿賈伊米切爾的籃網隊。

正如雷霆隊主教練馬克·戴尼奧特所指出的，衛冕冠軍在進入季後賽之前，始終會優先考慮球員的長期健康，而不是常規賽和 NBA 獎項。雷霆隊似乎並不急於將吉爾吉斯-亞歷山大帶回來，威廉斯和米切爾也是如此。

In five games with his new team, Cleveland Cavaliers guard Dennis Schroder is undefeated in wine and gold. In an exclusive postgame interview with ClutchPoints following the Cavs’ blowout 112-84 win over the Brooklyn Nets, Schroder shared that he’s not surprised by how quickly the group has adjusted to him, as well as fellow newcomers Keon Ellis and James Harden.

“They did their job first,” Schroder told ClutchPoints. “We’ve just tried to be included, we’ve just tried to make sure that we’re really, In fact Locked into every single game. It doesn’t matter who we play; We don’t shy away from opportunities, we shy away from good teams. Just playing my kind of basketball and trying to improve every day. I think it’s working.

“We just want to be at our peak in April. I think that’s where it matters most, and there are some steps we have to take. We have to do it every day. Everybody has to buy into it, and that’s what makes it so special right now that we’re playing at such a high level.”

Cavs All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell noticed the new mentality in the building at the team’s first practice after the All-Star break. Harden, Schroder and Ellis have helped people understand the task.

“When you bring those guys in, they bring the level of professionalism that they’ve had in the league,” Mitchell said. “That’s what I’ve been doing since I’ve been in the league, and it’s kind of like that. Just understanding, ‘Hey, we’re getting 5-in-7. Yeah, we’re new and all that, but we also come in there and say, ‘Hey, it’s time to go.'”

“I think we handled it professionally,” Cavs head coach Kenny Atkinson said. “I know people work; normally, it takes three, four, five days off. It’s more… I called it a working vacation. We need to keep our bodies moving, make sure we go to the gym. I think most guys have done that. It’s part of a professional approach. But at the same time, man, we’ve got to do something here, and we finally got a sprint here. So it’s a good start, good first game.”

Since arriving in the trade with Ellis from the Sacramento Kings, Schroder has exerted his will defensively and shown his aggressiveness going downhill. Atkinson likes the contrast from the bench versus the big starting five. The 13-year veteran’s biggest impact doesn’t come in the stat sheet for this particular group or at this point in his career; it’s all about How He plays (and so does Alice) – stubborn, relentless and with an edge.

“I don’t know how many distractions there were between those guys tonight,” Atkinson said. “Keion, I’m not sure I’ve seen it in the league. Like, he can get in the passing lane; he had three blocks tonight. I knew it was part of his statistical profile, but it’s impressive to see it live. We threw Dennis in there and Sam [Merrill] And Keon, [and] It’s almost like a different look defensively with our speed and aggression. So, I’m really excited about that second unit because of those guys.

“Dennis, he just picks up the ball,” said Evan Mobley, playing in his first game since Jan. 26. “I think the smaller guard can move guys around and get the offense going later in the shot clock. And Keon, I mean, he’s all over the place. Today, he got a corner-three block; you don’t see that much. His offense, he dunked like two guys. He got a block and then saved it over the guy. He just does a lot of little things that you don’t really see.”

As great as it feels to see this kind of success, there is always room for improvement and the Cavs only have so many days of practice in the second half of the season. What does it take for Cleveland to maintain the momentum it has built after rearranging its roster?

“Enjoying it,” Schroder told ClutchPoints. “Enjoy every single game, every single practice, making sure the chemistry is right. We enjoy each other. I think that’s the most important, because if you have great chemistry on and off the court, it goes a long way.”

“We have a lot of talent with this group and high-character guys, I’m not really worried about the basketball. Coming together as a group and as a unit, I think it will make a big, big difference — especially in the playoffs when we go through tough times, and it’s really physical, and part of the mentality of it. I think when we figure that out, we’ll be really good.”

Dennis Schroder and Jordi Fernandez’s appreciation for each other is mutual

After spending just 23 games together in Brooklyn and moving up to the international level, Nets head coach Jordi Fernandez is well aware of Schröder’s expertise.

“Dennis is the ultimate professional,” Fernandez told ClutchPoints in his pregame press conference. “We know he’s wearing different jerseys, but the reality is teams want him. Teams want him to win. Wherever he goes, he’s going to be a part of the majority of the success. I think that’s very important.

“Not only in the NBA, but also with the German national team, and I have the opportunity to [coach] against him. When I had great respect for him [coached] Against him, and even more respect because I got the chance to train him. And not just the player, but also the individual and his family. I think the Cavs are very fortunate to have him.”

In 2024, before the Golden State Warriors traded for him, he averaged 18.4 points, 6.6 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals on .452/387/.889 shooting splits in less than 34 minutes per game. Schröder appreciates the short time he spent with Fernandez.

“Just one person who understands what I bring to the table,” Schroder told ClutchPoints. “He made me feel comfortable. It’s one thing to tell, but it’s one thing to really make sure the players know that.” [have] Having the confidence to actually play and be comfortable in your position counts for a lot. He did this for me.

“I played one of my best seasons there, half a season, whatever you want to call it. But I really liked him as a coach. Also a European guy, we’ve seen FIBA, and we’ve seen the NBA side, and it’s been great.”

克利夫兰骑士队后卫丹尼斯·施罗德在与新球队的五场比赛中保持不败战绩。在骑士队以 112-84 击败布鲁克林篮网队后，施罗德在接受 ClutchPoints 的独家采访时表示，他对球队对他以及新人科恩·埃利斯和詹姆斯·哈登的加入的适应速度如此之快并不感到惊讶。

“他们以前就做过他们的事，”施罗德告诉 ClutchPoints。 “我们只是试图出一份力，我们只是试图确保我们真的， 真的 锁定在每场比赛中。我们和谁比赛并不重要；我们不回避当下，也不回避优秀的团队。只是打我们类型的篮球并努力每天进步。我认为它一直在发挥作用。

“我们只是想在四月份达到巅峰。我认为这是最重要的，无论我们必须做什么，都有步骤。我们必须每天都这样做。每个人都必须买账，这就是现在我们处于如此高水平的比赛如此特别的原因。”

骑士队全明星后卫多诺万·米切尔在全明星赛后的第一次训练中注意到了球队心态的转变。哈登、施罗德和埃利斯帮助他们理解了手头的任务。

“当你引进这些人时，他们会带来联盟中一直以来的专业水平，”米切尔说。 “自从我进入联盟以来，这就是我一直在经历的事情，而且就是这样。只是理解，‘嘿，我们即将迎来 5 进 7 的比赛。是的，我们是新人等等，但我们也会进来说，‘嘿，是时候离开了。’”

“我认为我们处理得很专业，”骑士队主教练肯尼·阿特金森补充道。 “我知道大家都在工作；通常情况下，需要休息三、四、五天。这更像是……我称之为工作假期。我们需要保持身体活动，确保我们去健身房。我想大多数人都这么做了。这是专业方法的一部分。但是，伙计，我们还有一些工作要做，最后我们在这里进行冲刺。所以这是一个好的开始，开箱即用的第一场比赛。”

自从与萨克拉门托国王队的埃利斯交易后，施罗德在防守上强加了自己的意志，并在下坡时表现出了他的侵略性。阿特金森喜欢替补席上的球员与更大的首发五人组之间的对比。这位拥有 13 年资历的老将最大的影响并不在于这个特定群体的统计表，也不在于他职业生涯的这个阶段；而是在于他的职业生涯。这都是关于 如何 他打球（埃利斯也是如此）——顽强、不屈不挠、充满优势。

“我不知道今晚这些家伙之间发生了多少次偏差，”阿特金森说。 “基恩，我不确定我在联盟中见过这种情况。就像，他可以进入传球路线；他今晚有三个盖帽。我知道这是他统计数据的一部分，但现场看到它令人印象深刻。我们把丹尼斯和萨姆扔进去 [Merrill] 还有科恩， [and] 这几乎就像是一个不同的面貌，我们的速度和防守上的侵略性。所以，因为这些人，我对第二个单元感到非常兴奋。”

“丹尼斯，他只是接球，”埃文·莫布里补充道，他自1月26日以来参加了他的第一场比赛。“我认为，小个后卫可以扭转人们的局面，并在进攻时间较晚的时候开始进攻。而基恩，我的意思是，他无处不在。今天，他得到了一个底角三分盖帽；你看不到那么多。他的进攻，他像两个人一样扣篮。他得到了一个盖帽，然后把它挡在了那家伙身上。他就是这么做的。”很多小事是你看不到的。”

看到这样的成功固然令人高兴，但总有改进的空间，而骑士队在赛季后半段只有这么多天的训练时间。怎样才能保持克利夫兰队自重组阵容以来所建立的势头？

“很享受，”施罗德告诉 ClutchPoints。 “享受每一场比赛，每一次训练，确保化学反应正确。我们彼此享受。我认为这是最重要的，因为如果你在场上和场下都有良好的化学反应，那就大有帮助。

“我们这个团队拥有如此多的天赋和高品格的球员，我并不真正担心篮球。作为一个团队和一个整体走到一起，我认为这会产生很大很大的变化——尤其是在季后赛中，当我们经历困难时期时，这真的是身体上的，也是心态上的。我认为当我们发现这一点时，我们会变得非常非常好。”

丹尼斯·施罗德和乔迪·费尔南德斯相互欣赏

网队主教练乔迪·费尔南德斯（Jordi Fernandez）在布鲁克林只打了 23 场比赛，并在国际赛场上有过交集，他非常了解施罗德的专业知识。

“丹尼斯是终极职业选手，”费尔南德斯在赛前新闻发布会上告诉 ClutchPoints。 “我们知道他一直穿着不同的球衣，但现实是，球队想要他。球队希望他获胜。无论他走到哪里，他在很大程度上都是成功的一部分。我认为这非常重要。

“不仅在 NBA，而且在德国国家队，我都有机会 [coach] 反对他。当我 [coached] 对抗他，甚至更多的尊重，因为我有机会执教他。不仅仅是球员，还有他本人和他的家人。我认为骑士队拥有他是非常幸运的。”

2024 年，在金州勇士队交易他之前，他在场均不到 34 分钟的上场时间内得到 18.4 分、6.6 次助攻、3.0 个篮板和 1.1 次抢断，投篮命中率为 0.452/387/0.889。施罗德很感激与费尔南德斯相处的短暂时光。

“他只是一个了解我能带来什么的人，”施罗德告诉 ClutchPoints。 “他让我感觉很舒服。讲述是一回事，但要认真地确保球员们 [have] 有信心真正比赛并在自己的位置上感到舒服意味着很多。他为我这么做了。

“我在那里打出了我最好的赛季之一，半个赛季，不管你怎么称呼它。但我真的很喜欢他作为教练。他也是一个欧洲人，我们看过 FIBA​​，也看过 NBA 球队，这很棒。”

The 2025-26 season was supposed to be a watershed moment of sorts for the Denver Nuggets, as they added some new pieces to their core four of Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon, and Christian Braun, and this new depth was going to make them unbeatable, especially in the postseason.

However, this campaign has been particularly unforgiving for the Nuggets on the injury front, with players like Jokic, Gordon, Braun, new addition Cam Johnson and now breakout star Peyton Watson missing significant time with significant innings. Of course, the goal for the Nuggets is simply to complete the rigors of the regular season together, and given their situation at present, even that is not certain.

Whatever the case, the Nuggets have called on some unlikely contributors to step up, and credit to them. But the Nuggets front office knows time is ticking. Their salary cap obligations are about to increase significantly, as Watson is set for a new big contract. To retain Watson, the Nuggets will have to dive into the luxury tax if they choose to keep their current roster together for the next few seasons.

This prompted them to pull off a salary dump trade before the deadline, sending former second-round pick Hunter Tyson along with a 2032 second-round pick to the Brooklyn Nets just to avoid the luxury tax. They were $1.8 million under the luxury tax before the move was made to comply with the 14-roster size requirement following the Tyson trade.

Spencer Jones’ Nuggets future is secure…for now

In an ideal world, the Nuggets would have unlimited resources, and they could put their core together without being overly cautious of the punitive nature of the luxury tax under the current CBA. Alas, the Nuggets are not living in an ideal world.

Paying luxury tax is not really a problem when a person is careless. Of course, this plays a factor, as owners are at least very adamant about not wasting money, but the roster move restrictions that come with being in the first or even second apron make roster construction much more difficult.

The Nuggets wanted to get into the tax bracket to reset their timer for at least this season, because their hand will be forced very soon. Nonetheless, they finalized the facilitated transaction of converting Spencer Jones’ contract to a standard contract, making him eligible for the postseason.

Jones is one of the players the Nuggets have relied on to help their injured starters. In fact, the 24-year-old sophomore has made 34 starts for the Nuggets this season, which is nothing short of a huge developmental win for a team that needs some cost-effective but productive players to fill out the roster.

Jones plays unselfishly and he shoots efficiently, and considering how important he has been this season, it was no easy task for the Nuggets to turn his deal into a standard one. His impact doesn’t go beyond the stat sheet, but as a 6’7″ wing who can shoot and defend at multiple positions, he is invaluable to a team with contending aspirations.

However, the problem is that the Nuggets were able to convert his contract to a prorated minimum deal for the remainder of the season instead of signing him to a multi-year contract, which would keep him in the Mile High City on an affordable arrangement for the next few seasons.

With this agreement, Jones will be eligible for restricted free agency this summer, and if he makes seven more starts for the Nuggets, he will be eligible for a qualifying offer of $5.9 million – further reducing the Nuggets flexibility amid their current troubles clearing the salary cap.

At least, the Nuggets now have Johnson and Braun healthy, and they’ve been riding the hot hand of Julian Strother lately, reducing their need to rely on Jones to fill in as the starter. It was going to be difficult for the Nuggets to keep Jones out of the starting lineup as his situation has not improved on the injury front, but now, they have a legitimate reason to bring him off the bench.

But it seems that the hard part is just beginning for the Nuggets.

Denver’s bill is coming due

The Nuggets were absolutely impressed by Braun’s 2024-25 campaign, as he made the move after Kentavious Caldwell-Pope left in free agency. Braun signed a five-year, $125 million contract extension – a significant commitment for the Nuggets knowing their cap obligations at the time.

Braun has struggled this season with 36 missed games, a huge decline from last season. And the Nuggets have since seen Watson take the next step in his development, blossoming into a legitimate shot creator on the wing and a far more well-rounded two-way threat than Braun.

Watson is set to enter restricted free agency in the summer, and the Nuggets will have to pay more than $20 million per season to retain Watson. Denver has some tough decisions to make moving forward, and that’s without considering what it would take to keep Jones on a long-term contract.

Cutting Zeke Nnaji’s salary is a way for the Nuggets to make room, and so is moving Johnson out. However, the Nuggets hardly have any assets left to sweeten salary-dump trades, and losing Johnson would be costly, as he’s shooting over 43 percent from deep this season and is on an affordable contract anyway.

Will the Nuggets let Braun go to make room for Watson? This seems like a possible route Denver could take. But his best bet for maintaining his status as a title-contender during Jockey’s prime is to endure the tax hit for at least a year before making a change if he really has to.

Winning fixes everything. And for a Nuggets team that is about to be financially ruined, all the blood they shed will be worth it if they hoist the Larry O’Brien Trophy in June.
