[外電] Nuggets-Lakers Preview

By CHRIS ALTRUDA
The Denver Nuggets were fortunate to get a victory in their last game after
failing to close out a team playing without its superstar. That could be an
important lesson heading into Friday's game at Staples Center against the Los
Angeles Lakers, who put forth an impressive team effort in winning without
Kobe Bryant.
The Nuggets (32-26) are in the mix for a playoff berth in the Western
Conference and appeared to be cruising to a victory Wednesday over reeling
Minnesota, which lost All-Star forward Kevin Love to a concussion in the
first quarter.
Denver led by as many as 24, but squandered that lead before scraping out a
113-107 victory as Ty Lawson made four free throws in the final 17.6 seconds.
Lawson had 24 points and rookie Keith Faried added 16 and 12 rebounds, but
the win left a sour taste in coach George Karl's mouth.
"Worst win of the year. There's an immaturity to how we finish games off," he
said after the Nuggets won for the sixth time in nine contests. "There's an
immaturity to how we play with leads. Fortunately, we figured out how to win
it. It wasn't very pretty."
That immaturity could also be a lack of cohesion as the Nuggets mix and match
personnel due to players dealing with injuries. Al Harrington scored 11
points while laboring through 22 minutes with a knee problem, and Danilo
Gallinari scored 18 in his second game back after missing 10 due to a
fractured left thumb.
"It was a little hard to move laterally," Harrington told the team's official
website. "But I'm done complaining about it. Just going to take it game by
game. I can shoot. I can't really drive and spin like I want to. Hopefully it
starts feeling a little better."
Wilson Chandler, however, likely will miss his seventh straight game due to a
groin injury.
Harrington and Faried may be in the spotlight, moreso if the Lakers (37-22)
are without Bryant for a fourth consecutive game due to a sore left shin.
That's because Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol have given the Nuggets fits all
season.
Bynum has averaged 23.0 points and 13.0 rebounds while shooting 69.8 percent,
while Gasol has contributed 16.7 points and 11.0 boards as Los Angeles has
won two of the three matchups.
Both played key roles Wednesday when Los Angeles wrapped up a 2-1 road trip
without its All-Star guard by rolling past San Antonio 98-84. Bynum had 16
points to go with a career-high 30 rebounds, Gasol had 21 and 11 and Metta
World Peace continued his strong recent offensive play with a season-high 26
points.
"Metta stepped up big and he hit a lot of clutch shots," said Bynum, who
became the fifth player in franchise history with a 30-rebound game. "(Steve)
Blake did too. Matt Barnes shot freely so that's why we have teammates and
they picked up the slack. I was just playing defense."
Barnes and Blake combined for 23 points off the bench Wednesday, and World
Peace has averaged 19.0 points his last four games - well above his season
mark of 7.1.
Lakers coach Mike Brown said there is no timetable for Bryant's return, but
also noted his top scorer wasn't pushing to play. Bryant has averaged 17.7
points while shooting 27.5 percent (19 for 69) against Denver this season.
-簡單來說,金塊教練George Karl不是很爽他們上一場贏灰狼,
因為浪費掉太多領先,且球員不夠專注,
而原因是因為球隊內有點缺乏凝聚力以及傷病問題。
Al Harrington和Danilo Gallinari身上的傷都還沒有完全好,
Wilson Chandler則是因為腹股溝受傷問題,預計不會出賽。
老大可能還是不會上,
MB說不確定他甚麼時候會回來!
希望這場雙塔正常發揮,防守拿出來,世界和平繼續爆發!
湖人加油!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
