Inspired by Nene, Nuggets end Spurs streak Nuggets stop Spurs' winning streak at 11 games By Chris Tomasson, Rocky Mountain News Originally published 12:20 a.m., March 8, 2008 Updated 12:21 a.m., March 8, 2008 來源：http://www.rockymountainnews.com/news/2008/mar/08/its-snap/ Nene returned to the bench Friday night, and it was emotional. Nene在週五晚上回到金塊板凳，而且非常感人。 “I cried in the locker room after the game,” said Nene, the Nuggets forward who is recovering from testicular cancer and sat out on the bench (in street clothes) for the first time since he last played Jan. 7. "賽後我在休息室哭了，" Nene說，這名金塊前鋒在睪丸癌後復原，並且在1/7的比賽後首次坐在板凳上（穿著休閒服飾）。 They were tears of joy because the Nuggets walloped San Antonio 109-96 at the Pepsi Center to stop the Spurs’ 11-game winning streak. 他們是喜極而泣，因為金塊以109-96在主場擊敗了馬刺，終止了他們的11連勝。 “It was inspirational, obviously,” Nuggets guard Allen Iverson said of having Nene on the bench. “It was just a good thing. It was a blessing. To be honest, we fed off that.” "很明顯的這能鼓舞人，"AI說到能有Nene在板凳上。"這事件好事。是祝福。老實說，我們因此受到鼓勵。" Iverson sure did. He overcame a sprained right ring finger suffered late in the first half and led the Nuggets with 29 points. AI的確得到支持了。他克服了前半場右手無名指扭傷，以29分帶領金塊隊贏球。 Forward Carmelo Anthony added 25 points, 14 in the third quarter, when the Nuggets blew the game open. Forward Eduardo Najera had 19 points, tying his career high. 前鋒Melo也得到25分，其中13分在第三節得到，也就是金塊吹起反攻的號角時。另一名前鋒馬市長也得到平生涯最高的19分。 In the first quarter, Nene was shown on the Jumbotron and introduced. The fans cheered wildly. 在第一節，Nene上了場上的大螢幕並且被介紹，球迷瘋狂的歡呼。 “I’d like to thank everybody for their support,” Nene said. “You really find out who your friends are.” "我要謝謝大家的支持，" Nene說 "你會發現誰是你真正的朋友。" Nene didn’t want to talk about his chances of playing again this season. But he said he might know more next week as he’s been working out the past three days. Nene不想談到他在本季上場的的機會。但是他說經過最近三天的思考，他下週會有比較明確的答案。 “It was a scare,” Nene said of learning he has testicular cancer, which has a nearly 100 percent cure rate. “But, with my faith in God, I knew I’d get through it.” "那是很嚇人的，" Nene談到當他知道他得癌症時的感覺(其實是幾乎100%可以治癒的)"但是有我信仰的上帝，我相信我可以克服它的。" Nene had chemotherapy Feb. 26. He said he was worn down at first, but is feeling much better. Nene在2/26進行了化療。他說他一開始幾乎精疲力竭，但是後來感覺好一些了。 Denver’s win Friday sure helped him feel better. After trailing 54-46 at halftime, the Nuggets outscored the Spurs in 34-19 in the third quarter and cruised to victory. 金塊週五的贏球讓他感到好一些。上半場54-46的落後下，第三節反以34-19超前，最後贏得勝利。 “It’s just because our backs are against the wall,” Iverson said of the Nuggets coming up big. “We know how serious it is in the West, and we know that, if we don’t get our act together, we know there’s a chance of not being in the playoffs. ... You look at the roster and the way this team is built, there’s no way we shouldn’t be in the playoffs.” "因為我們後面還有硬仗，" AI談到接下來的賽程。 "我們知道在西區有多麼難生存，如果我們不團結一點，可能無法進入季後賽。看看我們的陣容，沒有理由不進入季後賽。" Iverson suffered his injury late in the second quarter when Spurs guard Tony Parker drove and the ball was lost and hit him on the finger. AI在第二節後半時受傷，因為Tony Parker在追一個掉球時撞到他的手指。 X-rays at halftime were negative, and Iverson returned for the second half. 中場的X光檢查是沒問題的，AI在下半場回來了。 “It’s real sore now,” Iverson said after the game, saying “adrenaline” helped carry him through. "現在是很痛的，"AI賽後說是"腎上腺素"幫助他撐過來的。 Iverson expects to play in tonight’s big game at Utah, which leads the Nuggets (37-24) by three games in the Northwest Division. Nuggets coach George Karl also expects he’ll play. AI希望能在下一場出戰爵士時出賽，爵士在西北組領先金塊3場。 Karl也希望他能打。 Anthony left the court in the final minute with a left knee contusion after hitting the floor. But he’s probable for tonight. Melo 在只剩下幾分鐘時離開球場，他的膝蓋因為撞到地板而挫傷。但是他還不確定下一場是否能出賽。 “I just banged it,” he said. “I’ll be all right. I need to learn how to dive on the floor.” "砰!就摔下去了" 他說 "我會沒事的，我需要學習如何快速落下而不受傷。" Perhaps the Nuggets wouldn’t mind seeing San Antonio (43-18) again in the playoffs, even though they have been ousted 4-1 in the first round two of the past three years. Denver won the home season series 2-0, marking the first season the Nuggets have swept the Spurs at home since winning 3-0 in 1988-89. 也許金塊不介意在季後賽遇到馬刺(43-18)，即使他們過去三年有兩年在第一輪被4-1掃出局。金塊本季在主場面對他們是2-0，自從1988-89球季的3-0後首次在主場橫掃馬刺。 It didn’t look good when the Nuggets fell behind 52-41 late in the first half. But the Nuggets cut the deficit to eight at halftime and outscored the Spurs 63-42 in the second half. 上半場一度以52-41落後時看起來並不好。但金塊在中場將差距縮小到8分差距，並且下半場得分以63-42領先對手。 “A couple of the coaches felt it might have been our best second half of the year,” Karl said. "許多教練都覺得這可能是本季最好的下半場" Karl說。 In the second half, the Nuggets held guard Manu Ginobili to just seven of his 24 points and forward Tim Duncan to just nine of his 23. 在下半場，金塊讓全場24分的Ginobili的得分控制在7分，Duncan的23分也只有9 分在下半場得到。 The game featured the return of Nuggets guard Chucky Atkins, who played his first game since Jan. 11 sports hernia surgery. He played the first seven minutes of the second quarter and the final minute of the game, and went scoreless on 0-of-1 shooting. 這場比賽也是後衛Atkins的復出賽，他在1/11疝氣手術後首次上場。他在第二節一開始的七分鐘和比賽的最後一分鐘上場，投一球而沒有得分。 But the big return belonged to Nene, who had been to several previous games and sat in a suite. 真正的復出賽屬於Nene的，他在最近幾場比賽都穿西裝坐在場邊。 He said he has received well-wishes from around the NBA, including a card from all of Utah’s players signed and a call from Boston coach Doc Rivers. 他說他收到來自NBA各隊的祝福，包括全體爵士隊員簽名的卡片，以及賽隊教練 Doc Rivers的電話。 “It was so crazy,” Nene said of his return to the bench. “It was just so emotional.” "真是瘋狂，"Nene談到自己回到板凳。"這真是感人。" His presence helped the Nuggets score one of their biggest wins this season. 他的現身幫助金塊贏得了本季最重要的勝利之一。 ETC.: The Nuggets, who feature NBA shot-block leader Marcus Camby, surprisingly had no blocks. ... But Camby grabbed 13 rebounds. ... Because of his grandmother ’s funeral today in Chicago, Nuggets center Steven Hunter missed Friday’s game and also will miss tonight’s before rejoining the team for Monday’s game at San Antonio. 其他： NBA火鍋王Camby很意外的沒有送出任何一個火鍋...但他有13個籃板... 獵人因為祖母的葬禮缺席這場和下一場比賽，他在打馬刺時(下下場)才會回來。 NENE TO TRAVEL Karl expects Nene to go on the Nuggets road trip that begins March 18 in Detroit, and travel the rest of the season with the team. But Karl said it’s still too early to say if Nene will play again this season, and no deadline has been established. Karl希望Nene能加入3/18底特律開始的客場之旅，並且在剩下的球賽與球隊一起移動。但是Karl認為現在說Nene本季能回來還太早了，並沒有確定的歸期。 "I’m hopeful we can figure out how to get him on the court for him," Karl said of Nene. “I think he has days he (wants to return) and days he doesn’t.’ ’ "我希望我們可以替他想出如何回到球場的辦法，" Karl說到Nene "我想他有自己想/不想回到球場的時間。" Karl said Nene, who had chemotherapy Feb. 26, has been in the gym the past three days working with weights and getting massages. Karl wanted Nene to go on this weekend’s trip, but he wants to wait. Karl說Nene過去三天都有在球場做一些重量和按摩。Karl希望他能加入週末的客場，但是他還想等一陣子。 "(Nene) seems in good spirits," said center Marcus Camby. "他看起來很有精神。" Camby說。 ATKINS RETURNS Nuggets guard Chucky Atkins, who had sports hernia surgery Jan. 11, returned Friday against San Antonio. Atkins，在1/11經歷了疝氣手術，週五對上馬刺時回來了。 “I’m antsy period because I personally would like to see Chucky have a couple more practices,’’ Karl said before the game. “But he wants to go, and I respect that.’’ "我有點不安，因為我個人希望他再多練習幾次，"Karl賽前說。"但是他想要上場，而我尊重他。" Atkins hadn’t played since Jan. 6. He said "it’s time to rock and roll" Atkins從1/6後就沒有打過。他說"it’s time to rock and roll" (這句就不翻譯了XD) HE SAID IT “It’s time. I don’t understand the politics of the Hall of Fame. It’s time for that step to be made and the celebration to be had. He was a force.’’ "是時候了。我不了解名人堂的政策。是時候做這件事並舉行慶典。他是有影響力的人。" --Karl, believing Nuggets assistant Adrian Dantley, a finalist for the seventh time in eight years, should be named April 7 to the Hall. --Karl相信助理教練Adrian Dantley應該在4/7進入名人堂，他在過去8年有七次進入最後決選階段。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.230.91.12
