Playing back-to-back games against the Thunder away, Li Yang, who needs to take a break, can only stay in San Don Anio, which has to be said to be a pity for many fans who are looking forward to the confrontation between Li Yang and Durant. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, no one thinks that this will be easy for Durant, after all, the Spurs have not only Li Yang, but also Leonard and Danny Green.

The matchup between the Spurs and the Thunder, which is very likely to be an early preview of the Western Conference Finals, naturally attracted the attention of many fans.

Although Popovich said that the Spurs will not go for a record, after all, there are still some Spurs fans who have a hint of luck in their hearts, and they expect the Spurs to continue the winning streak.

And for fans of other teams, there's only one thing they want to see, and that's the Thunder being able to snipe at the Spurs.

For more than a month, the fighting power of the Spurs is too fierce, if there is any team that can snipe the Spurs, fans believe that only the Thunder.

After all, as we all know, with the rise of the Thunder in recent years, the Thunder's style of play has always been comparable to that of the Spurs.

After the start of the game, the Thunder really showed a different state from the Spurs' opponents in recent times, in the first quarter of the game, with excellent defense and Dewey's joint play, the Thunder led the Spurs by 2 points after the first quarter of the game.

In the second quarter, the two teams played a stalemate, and the Spurs found their offensive touch in this quarter, and they once took the lead and led by three points, but in the end the Thunder still led by one point at halftime.

The turning point came in the third quarter of the game, where the Spurs played extremely badly offensively, and on the Thunder's side, when Leonard went off the court at the end of the third quarter, Durant led the team to a wave of offensive highs.

At 20:32, the Thunder took a 12-point lead in the single quarter of the game, laying a good foundation for the final quarter. In the final quarter of the game, the Thunder became more and more courageous, and won the Spurs by 3 points again in a single quarter.

In the end, the Spurs lost to the Thunder 94-108, received their 11th loss in the regular season, and also fixed their winning streak at 19 games.

As soon as the game ended, the outside comments were polarized, on the one hand, many people cheered that the Thunder finally gave the Spurs a defeat, and they believed that this game gave the playoffs some suspense again, because this game once again gave people a glimpse of the scene of the Thunder beating the Spurs.

But on the other hand, many people think that the Spurs are missing Li Yang, the top scorer on the bench, and the team's important defensive players on the forward line, and they have not played their true strength.

These people generally believe that if it weren't for Li Yang's break, the Spurs would have won the whole game, after all, the turning point of this game came in the third quarter of the game when Nader was rested, and under normal circumstances, this period is when Li Yang led the bench players to pull points.

Both sides have their own opinions, but the quarrel is not lively.

Similarly, there are many fans who lament that the Spurs don't have a chance to tie the Bulls' 72-10, but there are few such voices, after all, Popovich has long said that he is not interested in the regular season record.

While the NBA regular season is going on amid a lot of discussion, most fans' attention is shifting to teams that are not stable in the standings and games that are likely to lead to a change in standings.

At this time, the Spurs, Popovich began to prepare for the upcoming playoffs, and after ensuring that his team could guarantee home court advantage even if he lost all the next games, Popovich began a large area of rotation.

In the next seven games, Popovich had about three main rotation players rested in almost every game, and in the game, even those who did not rotate had very little playing time, almost no players who lasted more than 20 minutes.

In such a situation, Popovich doesn't even care so much about the team's wins and losses, according to the outside world, even if the Spurs lose all eight games, Popovich will still be rested.

Of course, the Spurs can't lose all of these games, but with such a frequent use of the third team to play against each other, the Spurs have won only four of their next seven games.

They lost against the Rockets, the Timberwolves and the Lakers, who are second to last in the West.

In the final stage of the regular season, when the teams fought to the death, the Spurs took a break for half a month, but even so, with the advantage in the early stage, the Spurs still achieved the best record in the league.

With 68 wins and 14 losses, the Spurs have a win rate of 83% this season, the most in the league.

Behind the Spurs in the West is the Thunder, who have a 59-23 record this season, which ranks second in the West and second in the league.

In third place in the West is the Los Angeles Clippers with a 57-25 record, followed by the Rockets, who have gained Howard and have a greatly improved record, with a 54-28 record.

The fifth place in the West is dominated by the Portland Trail Blazers, who are also 54-28, but because of their mutual records, they can only be ranked behind the Rockets.

The Warriors sit in sixth place in the West as they did last season, with a 51-31 record. The Grizzlies dropped to seventh in the West with a 50-32 record.

The Mavericks are riding the final leg of the playoffs this season after missing the playoffs last season due to Nowitzki's injury, with a 49-33 record.

In the East, the Pacers finally withstood the pressure in the last half month, and they beat the Heat to take first place in the East with a 56-26 record.

The Heat finished the regular season with just a 54-28 record, which is a full 12 wins short of their 66-16 record last season.

Although many fans and industry insiders still believe that the Heat can make it to the Finals from the East, many people have expressed doubts that the Heat can come out of the defeat again and win the O'Brien Cup. In the eyes of many people, whether the West ends up with the Spurs or the Thunder reaching the Finals this season, it will not be easy for the Heat to win.

In third place in the East is the Toronto Raptors, who have risen to prominence this season, with a 48-34 record in the regular season, and they have finished third in the East this season after failing to make the playoffs last season.

Followed by the Bulls, who are also 48-34, the Wizards and Nets who are 44-38, and the Hornets who are 43-39, the Hawks led by Budenholzer are in eighth place in the East, and their record is 38-44.

The top eight teams in the East and West have been decided, and the matchups for the first round of the playoffs have been decided. In the East, the Pacers vs. the Hawks, the Heat vs. the Hornets, the Raptors vs. the Nets, and the Bulls vs. the Wizards.

In the West, the Spurs' first-round opponent is the Dallas Mavericks, and the two teams will play a bull-horse battle again.

The Thunder face the Grizzlies, and they have a chance to avenge their elimination last season due to Westbrook's injury. The Clippers finally don't have to meet the Grizzlies in the first round this season, as they face the Warriors in the first round, and the Rockets face the fifth-place Portland Trail Blazers.
