[外電] 籃網新兵們對後場兩人肅然起敬

Vince Young's game-winning slam, capping a 39-point outburst against the
Raptors, left opponents and teammates alike in awe.It's easy to forget that
this is new for many of them.
VC 的關鍵致勝灌籃包含對抗暴龍的39分,讓對手和籃網隊友都肅然起敬。
其實大家很容易忽略如此的事實,如此的表現對隊友們而言是很少見的情形。
In reality, some of the Nets are less familiar than the average fan with
games such as these: They had never seen a vintage Vince Carter performance,
and they still don't have a full grasp of what Devin Harris is capable of
doing.
實際上,許多籃網隊員比一般的球員還要更不熟悉如此的球賽情景。
他們從沒有看到充滿電力 VC 的如此表現,
而且他們依然不知道究竟 Devin Harris 的能力到達到哪裡。
So you have to forgive a guy like Brook Lopez, who in the aftermath of that
overtime epic at Toronto couldn't find the words to describe what he had
witnessed Friday night.
所以你必須理解像隊友 Brook Lopez ,
在看完這一場在多倫多史詩般的經典戰役,
他找不到言語來形容他所目睹的一切。
"I was just staring half the time," Lopez said of Carter's 39-point
explosion. "I've got to stop doing that, because I know it will happen
again."
"我有一半的時間都在目不轉睛的看。" Lopez 提到 VC 的三十九分表現。
"但我現在並需改變這樣的作法,因為我知道這一定還會再發生..."
And as for Harris and his 30 points: "He was (sick)? I had no idea," Lopez
said. "That was something else, gosh. I never saw anything like that."
至於 Harris 的三十分,他這樣說:
"他真的太變態了!我實在不知道該怎麼講!天,我從來沒看過這樣子的狀況"
The rookie center wasn't alone -- each guy sounded like someone who emerged
from a dark room after five years to see the sun rise, eager to see what the
next day might bring.
這位新人中鋒並不孤單,其他的每一個隊友的口氣,
聽起來像是在黑暗的房間待了五年之後看到陽光的如此興奮,
期待著下一天會帶來些什麼新東西。
Entering Saturday night's encounter with the Clippers, the Nets had the
hottest backcourt combo in the NBA, and it was not a subject for debate.
在即將與快艇對抗的比賽前,籃網目前有全 NBA 最火熱的後場,且這毫無爭論。
Carter was eighth in the league in scoring (24.1), Harris was 10th (23.9). No
other team has that.
籃網目前的後場得分 VC 排第八,Harris排第十,沒有其他球隊有像這樣的後場兩人。
Harris was 15th in the league in assists (5.8), Carter was 23rd (5.5). No
other starting guard combo in the league can say that.
Harris 在聯盟每場助攻為 5.8 排第十五, Carter 為 5.5 排第二十三,
而全聯盟的先發後衛組合也沒人能這樣說。
(Harris今天的比賽之後助攻提升到6.2)
Together, they averaged a whopping 17.3 free-throw attempts per game. Only a
tandem from the high-octane, high-possession team in Golden State (Stephen
Jackson/Corey Maggette, 16.2) or the earth-moving duo from Phoenix
(Shaq/Amare, 15.2) were close to residing in this neighborhood.
更別說,他們每場平均 17.3 次的罰球機會,只有高強烈,進攻火力旺的
金州勇士雙人組可以相提並論 ( Jackson/ Maggette, 16.2次),
或是暴力雙塔 Shaq/Amare的15.2次 和籃網的後場兩人接近。
Upshot: When these two go, they go. The Toronto game provided the latest
proof: Behind coach Lawrence Frank's incandescent backcourt combo, the Nets
scored 64 points -- half their points -- in the last 19½ minutes of the
game.
所以結果是,當這兩位開始加溫之後,他們能辦到所要達到的目標。
在多倫多的比賽也證實了這點, Frank 最耀眼的後場雙人組帶領籃網,
在最後的 19 分鐘,整個籃網得了 64 分,佔了總分數的一半。
And most of his teammates found it remarkable that Carter, who left Toronto
on ugly terms, could do his part with 19,800 people voicing their hatred for
him.
而大多數的隊友才發現,在背負著球迷仇恨離開多倫多的 Carter ,
可以在兩萬人的怒吼下完成這項壯舉並不簡單。
"He's a hell of a player," Bobby Simmons said. "Some guys probably couldn't
play through all that the whole game. But he kept his composure. He played
the game and made plays."
Bobby Simmons說:
"他真的是一個傑出到不行的球員。一些球員一定沒辦法忍受如此的狀況
來打滿整個球賽。但是他保持沉穩,進行球賽並且執行進攻。"
"He's been doing it his whole career, but I've never seen it first hand,"
Harris said.
Harris也說:"他在他整個生涯都是如此的做,但是我從來沒第一手見過這樣的狀況"
And in a very tangible way, the two guards inspire each other.
而且在非常明確的方式下,這兩個後衛激勵了彼此。
Harris, of course, had to leave the game in the third period to purge a bad
grilled cheese sandwich, and hardly any of his teammates even noticed him
leaving the floor.
Harris 在第三節的時候離開的球賽,為了調整一下不大好的狀況,
他的隊友甚至沒發現他離開球場上。
(比喻說:那時候表現不佳,離開了也沒感覺)
But when the fourth quarter began, with his team trailing by nine, only one
teammate addressed the Nets point guard.
但當第四節開始之後,他的球隊正九分落後,只有一個隊友能點出
籃網控衛 Harris 該怎麼做。
"It was Vince more than anything," Harris said. "He said we have to trust
each other out there, that he needed me to be aggressive, and he told me he
doesn't care if I'm 0-for-30 -- be aggressive. And that's what I did."
Harris 說:" Vince 當時幫助我找回自己。
他說我們必須站在場上並相信彼此,他需要我更為積極,
並且告訴我不管我現在是不是投30中0,依舊要充滿侵略性。
接著那就是我今晚做到的了。"
Harris is on his way to an All-Star season, but his performance in the fourth
quarter Friday night might have been his shining moment -- and very
reminiscent of his Nets debut last February, when he had 21 points and five
assists in 20 minutes.
Harris 正在邁向自己的全明星球季,但是他在第四節的表現
可能成為最閃耀的一段記憶。
而這也令人們想起 Harris 在今年二月的首次上場的表現,
在二十分鐘內得了 21 分 ,五助攻。
Basically, he was moving at a pace that few others could imagine: In just
five minutes, seven seconds, he piled up 13 points, two steals, one assist in
transition and a deflection that led to another turnover. In less than half a
quarter, he led a 17-8 charge that had the Raptors reeling, almost
single-handedly forging a tie.
基本上在暴龍的比賽當中他擁有一個少數人能想像的表現,
在最後五分七秒的時間內,他得了 13 分,兩個抄截,一個助攻,
並且在一次快攻擁有一次失誤。
在少於一節的時間當中,他帶領了籃網打出 17-8 的攻勢,
幾乎隻手將籃網帶回比賽並打成平手。
Reminder: This was the guy who minutes earlier had been in the locker room,
praying to the porcelain gods.
別忘了,他是稍早在球員休息室當中對自己的瓷器神像禱告的傢伙。
"Can't beat that," Carter said, with some amusement. "If that's the case,
whenever he's playing bad, I'm going to tell him he needs to go to back. I
may try it."
Carter 說:"他無法被打敗。
如果這就是每當他打的不好的時候所做的方式,
那麼我將告訴他他需要都這樣做,而我也該嘗試一下。"
Still, who gets sick and returns with even more energy?
依舊,還有誰可以從休息室回來,擁有更多的能量並且表現的相當變態?
"Willie Beamon?" suggested Keyon Dooling, referring to the fictional
quarterback in "Any Given Sunday."
Keyon Dooling 提到 Willie Beamon,這位在電影挑戰星期天中的
虛幻四分衛人物。
And like a movie plot, every last man was inspired -- but especially Carter,
who scored 12 points in the last 44 seconds of regulation.
就像電影的故事情結,每一個人都被Harris 激勵到了,
尤其是卡特,在常規賽最後44秒得了 12 分。
"We had Vince and Keyon and that group going (in the third period), and then
Devin to start that fourth was unbelievable," Frank said. "Then Jarvis (Hayes
was) making big plays. Literally everyone who played -- from Sean Williams to
Ryan Anderson ... Brook (Lopez) early impacted that game in a positive way."
Frank 說 :"我們有 Vince 還有 Keyon ,還有其他人開始發燙(在第三節)。
接著 Devin 開始在第四節有不可置信的表現。
後來 Jarvis 投進了關鍵的三分球。逐字的提到每一個上場表現的球員,
從 Sean Williams 到 Ryan Anderson, Lopez 都被正面的方式所影響到"。
