+31 at the start of December, +37 at the end of March and +19 on April 1: the Spurs are not the kind of pranksters with the Blazers this season. Next night, the two teams meet for the fourth time this season, the second time in a row in San Antonio. This will be an opportunity for the Texans to “sweep” their opponents. And, more importantly, to take an additional step towards the “play-in”.
Portland, which is however only five games behind them, no longer plays anything except the development of its young people.
” Portland was understaffed, that’s for sure, but you take any win, no matter how you get it. We played well, it was a good mental test. Our players were very focused in these circumstances and did a good job. We have another Sunday (today), we have to do the same “, Displayed Gregg Popovich after this last quiet victory (130-111).
This success, coupled with the Lakers’ fifth straight loss, allowed his team (32v-45d) to secure 10th place, synonymous with “play-in”, with a victory ahead of the Lakers (31v -46d). A new success against these weak Blazers, while the Lakers receive the Nuggets (before continuing with the Suns and the Warriors), could seal this race for indirect qualification for the playoffs.
” All the games right now are super important so we gotta be in itshowed Zach Collins (15 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists in this last game). We had a good state of mind at the start and we had to make sure we got this victory. Even when you’re ahead, it’s hard to keep the advantage in this league, and we kept it. »
The Spurs now have a narrow lead over the Californians. Pledge to them to keep it on the remaining five games and thus afford a chance to find the playoffs.
