[外電]Nets surge to eighth in a row
Saturday, December 31, 2005
BY DAVE D'ALESSANDRO
Through 48 minutes, 25 lead changes and 10 ties, the difference between the
Nets and Atlanta last night proved to be one thing: The Nets have a superstar
who can force double- and triple-teams and make plays in the last five
minutes of a game, and the Hawks do not.
歷經了48分鐘的比賽,25次的互換領先,以及10次平手,我們可以從籃網跟老鷹兩隊
表現上的差異證明了一件事:籃網有一位真正的球星,他可以在比賽最後五分鐘,即使
面對對手兩人或三人包夾的時候,從容不迫的進球。而老鷹隊沒有。
That would be Vince Carter, of course.
當然,大家都知道那個人是Vince Carter。
And it wasn't merely his 37 points that enabled the Nets to escape
embarrassment against the league's second-worst team, but his ability to
make an entire defense flinch, twitch and overreact every time he put the
ball on the floor in crunch time.
這不僅僅是Carter在這場比賽攻下37分,讓籃網避免陷入被聯盟戰績第二差的老鷹擊敗
的窘境,每當他在關鍵時刻拿到球,他還可以使對手的防守產生畏懼。
So Carter -- either directly or indirectly -- accounted for every Nets
field goal when they went on an 18-7 surge over the final 5:51 last night
to record a 99-91 victory over the very stubborn Hawks.
於是不管是直接或間接的,在比賽最後的5分51秒中,籃網的每一個FG都有Carter巨大的
貢獻,一波18-7的攻勢也讓籃網擊敗了頑強的老鷹隊。
The Nets' eighth straight triumph also marked the first time that three
players scored 20 plus -- Jason Kidd had 21 points and nine assists, while
Richard Jefferson had 21 and six -- but Carter's floor vision made heroes
out of them all, notably Jacque Vaughn, who drilled three jumpers in the
last 4:53 after Carter drew double- teams to help get the Nets over the top.
這一場勝利也是籃網的三叉戟第一次三人都得到了20分以上 -- 隊長有21分9助攻,
RJ也有21分6助攻 -- 但Carter的表現使得他們沒有辦法當這場比賽的英雄,
Jacque Vaughn也差點成為這場比賽的英雄,他在比賽最後4分53秒中,靠著VC被包夾的
情形下讓他有空檔可以投進三次重要的跳投。
"The last six minutes of the game, we just try to out-execute the opponent,"
said Carter, who also had four assists. "I just try to be more aggressive,
try to put pressure on the guy that's guarding me -- or the guys that are
guarding me.
"比賽的最後六分鐘,我們試著要擊垮對手" Carter說,他也有四次助攻,"我只是試著
更具有侵略性,試著把壓力留給守我的人,不管是一個或是幾個。"
"They were kind of playing it back and forth. They trapped, sometimes
they show hard, and sometimes it's one-on-one. So I was just trying to read
it as we go and make the right play."
"他們打的有點來來回回,(略,大家幫忙),所以我只是試著解讀並且做出正確的決定。"
"It's nothing new," Lawrence Frank said. "We've seen this a lot from Vince.
The key point was just the trust, and the fact the ball kept on moving, and
Jacque stepped up and hit big shots. But it was a result of Vince attacking,
forcing two to play one."
"這沒什麼好大驚小怪的" Lawrence Frank說 "Vince的表現我們已經看過很很多次了,
重點很簡單,就是大家互相信任,球持續的傳導,然後Jacque挺身而出在關鍵時刻投
進好幾球。不過這也是因為Vince持續進攻的關係,逼使著他們要去包夾他。"
With both teams playing small, Elizabeth native Al Harrington (26 points)
hit his fifth 3-pointer of the game to give the Hawks an 84-81 lead with 5:52
left, but Carter wasn't letting the game get away.
兩隊今天都是打小球戰術,Al Harrington得到26分,比賽剩下5分52秒的時候,他的第
五顆三分球讓老鷹取得84-81的領先,但Carter可不會這麼讓比賽結束。
He made four straight plays -- hitting a force in the lane over Harrington,
assisting on Vaughn's 19-footer, hitting a sensational change-of-hands drive
over Josh Childress, and then drawing a double that led to an open jumper
for Vaughn in the opposite corner -- to personally account for an 8-2 Nets run.
That resulted in an 89-86 lead at the 3:27 mark.
他連續策動了四次進攻 -- 先是在Harrington面前投進一球,然後傳球給Vaughn完成一個
助攻,再來是一球精彩的換手上籃過了Josh Childress,最後是吸引了包夾後讓Vaughn
有一個空檔投球 -- 一波8-2的攻勢。也使得籃網取得了89-86的領先。
"Pretty much before the play, I'm looking to see if my man is going to go
help -- which he always does, and then I start smiling," said Vaughn, who
hit four of five shots. "A lot of times, Vince and I actually have a little
eye contact. It just feels good that he had the trust to throw me the ball,
and I came through to knock 'em down."
"在這波攻勢之前,我試著尋找可以幫忙球隊的機會 -- 就像他平常做的一樣,然後我
笑了" Vaughn說,他今天投五中四。"有很多時候,Vince跟我都會有眼神的交會,很高
興他這麼信任我傳球給我讓我出手,而我擊倒他們了。"
That was followed by three straight stops, and the Nets blew a chance to
extend the lead when Jefferson missed two foul shots with 2:35 left. But
one play later, after a Cliff Robinson steal, Carter drove the lane, the
defense collapsed, and he hit Jefferson on time and on target for an open
3-pointer, making it a 92-86 gap with 1:52 to go.
這波攻勢之後籃網連續失手三次,RJ連續兩罰失手更喪失了可以把領先拉大的機會,
但是大叔的抄截後,Carter及時把球傳給RJ,一個空檔的三分球使得比數拉開到92-86,
比賽剩下1分52秒。(詳情請看J大的重播,在此不多加敘述.XD)
"That's just confidence -- Vince having the confidence in me," Jefferson said.
"You know, he had a game going. But he still kicked it to the open man and
I knocked it down."
"這就是信心 -- Vince對我有信心" RJ說 "他把球傳給有空檔的人而我投進了。"
The Hawks came as close as 94-91 after a three-point play by Tyronn Lue
(18 points), but the Nets followed the script, as Carter drove and kicked
it to Kidd, who fed an open Vaughn, who drilled another open jumper from
the corner to ice it with 43 seconds to play.
靠著Tyronn Lue的三分球老鷹把比數追到94-91,但是Carter--Kidd--Vaughn的傳球
及投籃讓比賽大勢底定。
"Atlanta played extremely hard," said Kidd, who locked up Joe Johnson over
the last 10 minutes (1-for-4, three turnovers). "The big thing is we executed
down the stretch and we got some stops when we had to, and again, Vince was
great tonight. He found the open guy, found the basket, he did a lot for us
at both ends of the court. That was a big win for us, we ended the year right
and now we have to move on."
"老鷹打的非常好,"Kidd說,他在第四節的大鎖鎖住了Joe Johnson(投4中1,三失誤),
"重要的是我們打的很好,Vince今天還是一樣棒,他找到有空檔的人,他找到籃框,
他在攻守都有很大的貢獻,這是重要的一勝,尤其在一年結束的時候,而新的一年
我們必須要再往前走。"
Notes: Nenad Krstic needed X-rays on his left wrist after a second-quarter
fall, but he said it was fine. ... The Nets, 17-12 with a two-game lead in
the Atlantic, don't play again until Friday. "Give me a two-week break, I'm
happy," Jefferson said. "Any break is good."
Notes:Krstic去照X光了,不過他說情況還OK,籃網的下一場比賽要到下星期五了..
RJ說有這麼久的休息是很好的。
