On April 2, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season is in full swing. In today's battle of the Western Focus, the Spurs welcomed the Blazers at home to challenge. The Spurs had assists from the start of the game before extending their lead all the way to a 130-111 win over the Blazers.
It must be praised that the Spurs' recent form has been too good. They recently recorded a valuable four-game winning streak on the road before losing by one point to the 2nd-placed Grizzlies in the West. Facing the Blazers today, who have no desires, the Spurs did not drop the chain, established the lead early and won. And it should be noted that today's star Murray did not play, Kelden had 21 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, Vassell scored 22 points, and Peltel had 13 points and 6 rebounds.
After today's win, the Spurs' record has changed to 32-45, continuing to firmly rank 10th in the West. It should be noted that if the Spurs' record is equal to that of the Lakers, the Spurs will be ahead of the Lakers because the Spurs win more against the Western Conference. This also means that even if the Lakers can beat the Pelicans today, the Spurs can still be firmly ranked 10th in the West. It is even said that in the last few games of the season, the Spurs are likely to force the Lakers to qualify for the playoffs because of this advantage.
After today's game, the Spurs have 5 more games, home vs Blazers, away vs Nuggets, away vs Timberwolves, home vs Warriors, away vs Lone Rangers. Compared with the Lakers, the Spurs' schedule is slightly easier, and the Lakers will play against the Nuggets (twice), the Warriors, the Suns, and the Thunder.
