NBA》偷吃步!馬刺「老少配」技術挑戰賽僅用47.9秒 卻因違反規定遭取消資格

Yahoo16-02-2025

NBA全明星週技術挑戰賽今(16)日登場,馬刺隊話題組合「老少配」保羅(Chris Paul)和文班亞馬(Victor Wembanyama)率先登場用最少的秒數完成,未料,卻因為「偷吃步」最終被取消資格。
技術挑戰賽參賽球員將測試運球、傳球、投籃等全方位技術,比賽由四支雙人組隊伍進行較量,每隊需通過障礙運球、傳球準度測試、快攻上籃與三分投射。由於本次技術挑戰賽的投籃環節怕「投不進耽誤時間」,因此設定一個點「最多投三球、沒進也沒關係」的規則

Legendary Mavericks coach Don Nelson bashes Luka Doncic trade

OKLAHOMA CITY — Don Nelson was back on an NBA stage, and it was entertaining. The Hall of Fame coach with the second-most wins in NBA history left his home in Maui to come to Oklahoma City and receive the Chuck Daly Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Basketball Coaches Association and Pacers coach Rick Carlisle. Nelson talked and joked about his innovative offenses, telling stories of playing for the Bill Russell Celtics, having Manute Bol shoot 3-pointers, and coaching Hall of Famers such as Dirk Nowitzki. Nelson talked about player loyalty. Which led to the former Mavericks coach joining the rest of Dallas in bashing the Luka Doncic trade. 'As a matter of fact, I want everybody to know I'm wearing Luka's shoes, his new shoes from Nike, just got on the market. I'm wearing them in protest for the trade from Dallas,' Nelson said. 'I think it was a tremendous mistake by the Dallas franchise to trade him, and I want everybody to know that.' For Nelson, when you get a generational player on your team, you don't trade that player away. 'Because I learned from the best. I played a year for Red Auerbach. I played under him for Tommy Heinsohn and Bill Russell,' Nelson said. 'I had the opportunity on my way, because I always went to the games early to sit and talk with Red, philosophy. And his philosophy was when you have a great player, Bill Russell, [John] Havlicek, Sam Jones, you never lose that player. You keep him for a lifetime. You put his number up and you honor that player and that's been my philosophy. 'If you look at the players I've had over the years, Dirk and [Sidney] Moncrief and all the rest of them that I've coached,... my philosophy was always to honor the great players, not trade them away, but to add pieces to that player and make him and your franchise the best that it could be.' In Dallas, many fans are nodding their heads in agreement. At least they get a reset, thanks to the NBA Draft Lottery ping pong balls, which gave the Mavericks the chance to draft Cooper Flagg. Nelson shared another amusing story about when the Mavericks — led by his son, Donnie Nelson, as general manager — drafted Dirk Nowitzki. 'I have to say in that draft, Paul Pierce was my favorite player,' the elder Nelson said. 'We had Paul Pierce going top three. So we didn't even consider that he would be there. Wouldn't you believe that when No. 9 came up, Paul Pierce was there, and Dirk Nowitzki. I looked at Donnie and I said, 'Oh s***, Paul Pierce is my favorite player. He's going to be a star.' And Donnie says, 'Come on, Dad, you know what we've been doing for the last month.' We were hiding him in Donnie's basement so nobody else could interview him.' The rest is history.

The NBA Finals court logo fiasco proves bullying works sometimes

The NBA Finals court logo fiasco proves bullying works sometimes Ok. Before we continue, let me say this: 99 percent of the time, I am not here for bullying. Bullying is bad. You shouldn't do it. You shouldn't allow your kids to do it if you have kids. And, if you know someone being bullied, you should do whatever is necessary to help them out of that situation. But let's be real, folks. There's that ONE PERCENT of the time when bullying is not only good, but also necessary. I'm sorry! Maybe that's a little crass, but I'm just being honest. Sometimes, some people need to be bullied out of the bad decisions that they're making. That was Adam Silver and the NBA last week. The NBA decided it didn't need to plaster an NBA Finals logo on the court for the biggest series of the season. The league hasn't actually had a logo on the court for the finals for most of the last decade at this point. Silver told reporters that the league removed the logos because there was a "sense" from teams that the decals made the court slippery, presenting a danger to the players. Yeah, sure. Whatever. All I know is that the court looked extremely bland in Game 1 of the NBA Finals. That's not a good look. Especially when the NBA Cup courts go above and beyond to let you know that some random regular-season game in November matters. But that's OK, though! Again, sometimes, bullying works. In this case, it seems to have put a little bit of a battery in the NBA's back to improve its presentation for the biggest games of its season. The league added digital logos to the court for Game 2 between the Thunder and Pacers. As our Andrew Joseph notes, it honestly didn't look great. But at least it was something. One might argue that this is probably a bit worse than doing nothing at all. This certainly makes the presentation feel a bit cheaper. But, hey. At least you know it's the NBA Finals, right? Plus, if the league does this here, then maybe they'll step it up again for Game 3? Maybe we can get some actual decals instead of digital ones? If we keep this up, by next year's NBA Finals we may have the big Larry O'Brien trophy on the court like we used to back in the day. Being serious for a second, it's a shame that fans had to bully the league into doing this. NBA fans complain about a lot and, usually, the complaints really aren't that important. But with this one, fans were spot on. The NBA should be making its biggest stage feel as grand as possible. It's a huge mistake not to. Lessons learned for next season, I hope. An instant classic If you didn't get to catch Carlos Alcaraz vs. Jannik Sinner in the Roland Garros championship match on Sunday, please find your way to the nearest television and watch every single minute of it on replay. It was five hours and 29 minutes of pure bliss for the audience. For those two? I'm sure it was grueling. This was a comeback win for the ages for Alcaraz. The man saved a record three championship points to stay alive in this match and ultimately win it. Here's our Robert Zeglinski on the details. "After losing the first two sets to Sinner, Alcaraz was basically against the ropes. But in a match that slowly (very slowly, but in a good way) became one of the longest in men's tennis history, Alcaraz never let up. He never threw in the towel. Not only did Alcaraz come back from two sets down to tie the match up before he and Sinner engaged in a fifth-set battle of wills, but he also saved three separate championship points to stay alive." This is one of those matches that you remember where you were when you watched it. Just seeing this scorebug here doesn't even feel real. It's still early in his career, but it looks like Alcaraz is putting together a run for the ages and he's only 22 years old. There's still a lot of tennis left to be played and more matches between these two to look forward to. Can't wait. Speaking of the French Open... I was today years old when I found out that the winners don't actually go home with the trophies they hold on the podium. Big shoutout to Coco Gauff, who gave us the skinny on this via TikTok. That trophy is honestly adorable, which is not necessarily what I think anyone should be aiming for when making a trophy. But here we are. That thing looks like a paperweight! Quick hits: Looks from the Tony Awards ... Robert Lewandowski vs. Poland ... and more — Here are 21 looks from the Tony Awards from our Caroline Darney. — What a strange saga this is between Robert Lewandowski and Poland. Robert Zeglinski has the details. — Lisa Salters was missing for Game 2 of the NBA Finals. Here's Andrew Joseph on her absence. — Jannik Sinner's loss at the French Open was such a bad beat. Prince Grimes has details. — Staying in the game for another three innings after being hit with a throw like this is beyond me. — Jared Verse challenging Aaron Donald to a workout went exactly how you'd think it'd go.

Pacers, back home in Indiana, have some things to figure out before Game 3 vs. Thunder in NBA Finals

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indiana Pacers simply couldn't wait to get home early Monday. There's a slew of possible reasons for that. Maybe they just wanted to get out of Oklahoma City with their split of the first two games in the NBA Finals. Maybe they couldn't wait to see what finals fever will look like in Indianapolis after a 25-year wait to get back to the title round. Or maybe they just wanted to get back to work. It's probably a little of everything — especially the last part. Yes, the Pacers are tied with the Thunder 1-1 after two games of the NBA Finals. For the lower-seeded team, that's huge; the Pacers took home-court advantage away by winning Game 1. But they know that if they don't take care of their own business at home, starting with Game 3 on Wednesday night, it'll be advantage Thunder again, just like that. 'We're going to have to be a lot better on Wednesday,' Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. That might sound like coaching hyperbole, but really, it isn't. The Pacers have yet to have anyone score 20 points in a game in these finals. They've led for a total — a total! — of 1 minute, 54 seconds in this series, or just under 2% of the time. (That's a major improvement over the 0.0001% that they led Game 1 for, in a winning effort, somehow.) And in Game 2, the Thunder held the Pacers without a point in the paint for the entirety of the first quarter. Points in the paint isn't a stat that tends to jump off the page. It's possible that a lot of people didn't even notice. But consider this: Before Sunday night, more than nine years had passed since the Pacers didn't manage a single paint point in the first quarter of a game. 'We have to do a better job of getting to the paint,' Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton said. 'It's a lot easier said than done. ... Our offense is built from the inside-out, and we have to do a better job getting downhill. They collapse and make plays from there. I thought we could improve a lot there. But yeah, man, they are flying around. They have got great point-of-attack defenders and great rim protectors.' For a team that has now won 81 of its 100 games this season (not counting the NBA Cup final loss, since that doesn't figure into any records), the Thunder somehow tend to get overlooked on the defensive end. Oklahoma City handcuffed the Pacers in the first two games, daring Indiana to take 3-pointers and barely giving up anything easy around the rim. It starts with bothering Haliburton, which the Thunder have managed to do for the majority of the first two games. 'Most of the guys I guard have the ball most of the time,' said Thunder forward Luguentz Dort, who has drawn the assignment on Haliburton for much of the first two games. 'My main thing is to stay in front of him and make everything tough. He's a great player. He is going to make some tough shots and great reads, so I just have to stay in front of him.' No team gave up fewer paint points in the regular season than the Thunder. It truly is a clash of styles; the Pacers are averaging 46 paint points in their 13 wins in these playoffs as opposed to averaging 36 paint points in their five losses. 'I think we have been one of the better teams scoring in the paint all year and we have to establish that early,' Pacers forward Myles Turner said. 'I think we only had four or six points in the paint in the first half (of Game 2) and that's not Pacers basketball. When you live and die by that three or mid-range shots, it doesn't always fare well for you.' Maybe at home, things will be easier. The Pacers got a split in Oklahoma City; things could be much worse. And now, the Pacers have two days to try to find a way to respond to what the Thunder defense is taking away. 'We'll watch the film, see where we can get better,' Haliburton said. 'We know that the paint is our emphasis and the paint is our friend. The more that we're able to attack the paint, usually better things happen for us.' ___ AP NBA:
