Spurs playing like anything but 7th seed against Mavs Posted Apr 26 2010 7:46AM By Art Garcia http://ppt.cc/iUQ4 SAN ANTONIO -- Are we to believe that the Spurs are a seventh seed? 你相信嗎?馬刺是一支第七種子的球隊。 The Mavericks certainly don't think so, but they're not the only ones running into a first-round buzz saw. Other than setting up the bracket, seedings are of little importance in the Western Conference playoffs. Ask the Lakers about the Thunder, the Suns about the Blazers or the Nuggets about the Jazz. 小牛顯然不這麼認為，但他們不是唯一一個在第一輪就遇到鐵板的球隊，在今年西區的季後賽當中，種子順序高低顯得不是那麼具有代表意義，這個問問湖人、太陽、金塊他們最知道。 Still, should Oklahoma City advance, it'll likely go down as the greatest first-round upset ever. (Golden State currently holds that crown over Dallas in 2007.) Portland over Phoenix would also be quite the shocker. But can anyone really call this an upset should San Antonio finish off what appears to be inevitable sometime this week? 萬一雷霆最後真的晉級了，他們可能成為史上最酷的第一輪老八傳奇 (金州勇士是目前擁有此殊榮的隊伍，他們在2007年第一輪就請小牛提前回家放暑假)；阿拓能跟太陽打成這樣，或許有點令人感到驚訝；但是如果馬刺在這個禮拜的其中一場比賽就結束這個系列的話(目前看來這是不可避免的) ，有人會覺得這很意外嗎? "We knew that they're a good team," Dallas point guard Jason Kidd said. "There's no surprises." Kidd: 我們都知道馬刺是一支雄獅，這沒什麼好驚訝的。 The healthy and happy Spurs are up 3-1 after holding off Dallas again Sunday night by a 92-89 count. During the Tim Duncan era, San Antonio has held such a series advantage five times. They've won all five. The Mavericks of any age, including the current 10-year playoff run with Dirk Nowitzki at the controls, have never come back from such a hole. 這支健康且快樂的馬刺，在G4的比賽中，以92-89贏得了勝利，系列賽取得了3-1的領先優勢。在Duncan時代中，馬刺有如此的優勢五次過，這五次他們都拿了下來；在小牛的歷史中，包括Dirk時代的這十年，他們卻從未在如此劣勢之下逆轉取得最後的勝利。 Try selling a script where it can happen to anyone other than Mark Cuban after a weekend lost in Fiesta-crazed San Antonio. The Spurs won a game Friday without a 3-pointer and another two nights later with a four-point contribution from Duncan. 在馬刺主場輸了G4的比賽之後，請大家一起幫小牛想想接下來的比賽到底要怎樣才能贏! G3中，一顆三分球都沒有，馬刺贏得了比賽； G4中，Duncan只得了四分，馬刺也贏得了比賽。 While winning under those circumstances may never happen again, the Spurs don't need to tip Lady Luck. They're healthy for the first time in two years. They expected to be in a position to contend for a title this season. Despite what the seedings read, they didn't come into this postseason thinking underdog. 在如此詭異的情況下還能贏得比賽也許不會再發生，但現在的馬刺在這種情況下並不需要乞求幸運女神的眷顧。這兩年來，他們第一次全員到齊，這季他們被視為冠軍的候選人之一(季前本來是...)，即使他們是第七種子，但是他們不認為自己處於下風。 "We really didn't approach it that way," Spurs center Antonio McDyess said. "Whoever we got in the first round, we felt like we were going to go out there and give it our all and try to take the series. It's still not over." Dice: 其實我們沒有想那麼多。不論第一輪的對手是誰，我們都會全力以赴，試著贏得比賽，但是......現在比賽還沒結束呢! Not yet, but San Antonio is on the verge of advancing by peaking at the right time. Maybe the Spurs saw it coming. 還沒結束，但是快了。馬刺目前狀況正處高峰，也許他們已經看到這個系列賽勝利的曙光。 "We have a lot of confidence in this team," San Antonio point guard Tony Parker said. "We didn't have our best regular season because we had a lot of new guys and we had to find chemistry. Now we're playing our best basketball." Parker: 我們都對這支球隊很有信心。我們在季賽時並沒有做到最好，因為這季加入了許多新血，而我們一直試著磨合出良好的化學效應。現在，請大家拭目以待。 Couple that with a Dallas squad coming apart at the seams and San Antonio's three-game winning streak seems fitting. The Mavs lost their composure and their way in the third quarter Sunday. They couldn't stop George Hill at one end and couldn't get a decent look at the other, squandering what was once a 15-point lead. 想想馬刺當前的狀態和看似已經分崩離析的小牛，馬刺能連贏三場似乎也是剛剛好而已。在G4的第三節中，小牛失去應有的沉著，自己無法發揮，也不能阻止Hill的發揮，這使他們浪費了一度到達15分的領先。 Hill kept the Spurs close in the first half when Dallas threatened to blow them up. The second-year starter provided the dynamite in the third, leading a 19-2 run to close out the third. Kidd, 37, was helpless when it came to slowing down a 23-year-old kid who played a bit part in this same first-round matchup a year ago. 上半場當馬刺快被小牛給轟垮的時候，是Hill把馬刺撐在了那裡，這個NBA二年級生的先發球員，在第三節時有著爆炸性的演出，領著馬刺打出一波19-2的攻勢來結束第三節。那個37歲的小孩完全無法阻止這個23歲的小孩，這個在一年前同樣一個第一輪組合中總共只上場一點點時間的小傢伙。 Hill's growth is just one of the reasons these Spurs aren't those Spurs. San Antonio didn't look the part of a No. 3 seed last year without Manu Ginobili, so when Dallas advanced in five games, few called that an upset. These Mavericks were supposed to be the deeper team, but San Antonio is clearly the more cohesive unit. 今年的馬刺不同於去年的馬刺，Hill的成長只是其中一個原因。去年，即使身為第三種子，馬刺卻失去了Ginobili，所以當小牛最後以4-1輕鬆過關之後，很少人覺得那是個意外；而今年的小牛被認為陣容更為犯規，但目前看來，馬刺明顯是更為有凝聚力的那個球隊。 Gregg Popovich has dictated the matchups, forcing Rick Carlisle to react. Dallas' coach has yet to catch up. The only constant for the Mavericks through three games had been Nowitzki, so the Spurs took No. 41 out of the flow with a series of double-teams. Gregg Popovich於季賽最後一場決定了他今年第一輪的對手就是......Rick Carlisle，這迫使Carlisle必須做出回應，但至今，你看到了~ 在馬刺這三連勝當中，小牛陣中唯一表現比較穩定的就是司機，所以馬刺對他祭出了一連串的人肉包夾。 Nowitzki, averaging 31.7 points coming into Game 4, took only 10 shots. Caron Butler, a second-half no-show Friday, took 18. Shawn Marion, another bit player in Game 3, had 13. Jason Terry jacked up 11. Dallas scored only 11 in the Waterloo third and shot 42-percent for the game. 系列賽前三場平均得分31.7分的Dirk，G4中只出手了10次。 G3下半場根本沒上場的Butler(整場比賽出場：14min48)，這場比賽出手了18次， G3中另一個出場時間很少的Marion(整場比賽出場：16min34)，得到了13次的出手機會， Terry出手11次，小牛第三節僅僅得了11分，全場FG的命中率只有42%。 "We couldn't generate enough offense," Nowitzki said. "We are doing a decent job on defense, but we just can't generate scoring and offense." Dirk: 雖然我們的防守還不錯，但是我們進攻還不夠，我們得不了分。 Does that fall on Carlisle, a coach who was supposed to open up the offense after Avery Jackson handcuffed Kidd? Or is it on Kidd, a future Hall-of-Famer who's considered one of the best playmakers ever? Or are the Mavs just not as together as a their No. 2 seeded suggests? 發生這種情況到底是誰的問題呢? Carlisle? 這位被認為解除了小將軍於Kidd身上下的緊箍咒的教練? Kidd? 這位名人堂預訂，被認為是史上最好進攻發動者之一的老妖姬? 或者單純只是小牛並沒有表現出身為第二種子應有的樣子? While the blame game will occupy Dallas leading up to Tuesday night's Game 5, the Spurs have found their stride. They moved within a victory of the West semifinals despite a pedestrian 31 points combined from Duncan, Ginobili and Parker. Hill had the best outing of his young career considering the stage, and others such as Antonio McDyess, Richard Jefferson and DeJuan Blair made their presence felt. 當這種「誰是戰犯」的遊戲，在G5前都會一直占據著小牛的同時，馬刺已經往前邁出了一大步。當他們的三巨頭只聯手得了__的31分的時候， Hill有著其才短短2年NBA生涯的最佳表現，其他人也都跳了出來-Dice、RJ、Blair.....，結果是他們取得了重要的一勝，目前3-1領先。 The Spurs aren't your typical seventh seeds. Not that they ever thought they were. 現在的馬刺並不是你們一般所想的第七種子，他們自己也從未這樣想過。 -- Dice: It's still not over. We have a long way to go and we just have to keep battling and get this series. 拿到第四勝之前這個系列賽都不是結束，Keep Fighting! 低調~ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 114.41.9.224
