Missed a 13-point reversal! The Eastern Conference suffered a 3-game losing streak: the new star scored 29+12, and the Clippers veteran scored 18 points

On October 9, the NBA preseason continues, with the Heat playing against the Spurs at home. The two teams entered the state early. The Spurs once took the initiative on the court and established a 13-point lead. However, the Heat launched a counterattack and soon closed the gap. After three quarters, they fell behind by 6 points. In the last quarter, Weir scored consecutive points to help the Heat overtake, but the team suddenly misfired in the last 3 minutes. In the end, the Heat lost to the Spurs 107-112 and suffered a three-game losing streak in the preseason.

As a powerful team in the Eastern Conference, the Heat once saw a chance to reverse the situation and win. Unexpectedly, the team suddenly fell into a slump in the final quarter. It had already led by 4 points in the last 3 minutes, and the situation was excellent. Unexpectedly, the Heat misfired on the offensive end, missed consecutive shots, and missed the opportunity to seal the victory. The Spurs seized the opportunity, established the victory with a 9-0 offensive, rejected the reversal, and successfully won two consecutive preseason games.

In this game, the rising star Weir on the bench for the Heat showed his ability. He played 26 minutes, made 12 of 19 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, and scored a game-high 29 points, as well as 12 rebounds, with a plus-minus value of +10. The Heat were able to overtake the score mainly due to his performance, but he failed to stand up and help the team in the final stage. Adebayor, who started the game, had a poor touch, shooting 3 of 10, only 9 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 turnovers.

Powell, who was introduced this summer, finally showed some performance in the third quarter. He made 2 of 7 in the first half and recovered 4 of 7 in the third quarter. He scored 18 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, but he also made 4 turnovers, with a plus-minus value of -16. The former Clippers player is a major signing for the Heat, but the current results are not very good and he needs further integration with the team. In addition, Huskers was in good form on the bench, scoring 19 points on 6-of-8 shooting.

The Spurs have won 2 consecutive games. This time the starting players performed very well on the court. Wenbanyama played 21 minutes and scored 10 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks; Kelden scored 19 points and 6 rebounds, Champagni 15 points, and Vassell 12 points. The overall performance was good. The substitute players also withstood the Heat's counterattack on the court, refused the reversal, and successfully won the victory.
