Chasing free chalupas for fans costs Varejao Coach, Pacers not too pleased with 3-point attempt in game's final seconds By Brian Windhorst Beacon Journal sportswriter Anderson Varejao was trying to live up to his role as fan favorite; instead he wound up in his coach's doghouse. Varejao试着满足观众的期待，不过却害得教练失了面子。 As the final seconds ran off in the Cavaliers' 99-88 victory over the India na Pacers on Sunday, Varejao decided to hoist up a 3-point attempt. It was Va rejao's effort to appease the fans, who were vocally hoping for the Cavs to reach 100 points so they could get their free Taco Bell chalupa. 周日骑士以99-88击败溜马的最後时间里，大V尝试投个三分球。这是他取悦观众的举动 ，当时他们正鼓噪着希望骑士冲到100分，让大家有免费的墨西哥Taco饼吃。 The shot was flat and so was the response. 投篮落空，期待也落空了。 While NBA fans desire for free 99-cent merchandise -- be it tacos, little rubber balls or T-shirts -- seems unbridled, the same could not be said for the Pacers' enthusiasm following Varejao's shot. Several, including head coach Rick Carlisle, shot Varejao demonstrative stares afterward. 当球迷很想要一些小福利——例如Taco饼、小橡胶球或T-shirt的时候，是非常狂热而不 理性的，同样的溜马队当然没有道理去回应骑士球迷的期待。包括卡莱尔教练以及一些球 员，赛後意味深长的瞪着Varejao。 Varejao, who was just 1-of-7 shooting on the day, drew the ire of his teamma tes as well. The protocol in those situations is to dribble the ball out and then shake hands. The Cavs are trying to avoid a reputation as poor sports. 今天投7中1的大V此举也让队友不太高兴。在这种时刻的正常行为应该是运球让时间跑完 然後握手，骑士队现在要避免受到缺乏运动精神的指控。。 ``We're not that type of team,'' LeBron James said. ``He knows not to do that again; it is as simple as that. You never want to show off, and he definitely made a mistake and he learned from it.'' 「我们不是那种糟糕球队」James说「Varejao下次不会再犯了，就这样。你不会想要炫 耀胜利，而他也从中得到教训了」。 Following the game, Cavs coach Mike Brown met with Varejao to let him know pleasing the fans isn't always the top priority. Then he issued an apology to the Pacers for the incident. 比赛後Brown教练跟大V谈话，告诉他取悦观众并不一定永远是最重要的。然後他向溜马 队道歉。 ``We're up and we already know we're going to win,'' Brown said. ``In a situ ation like that... we don't need to shoot that basketball. We apologize for it if that makes them feel better. We'll live and learn and we'll move on.'' 「我们知道即将获胜所以太high了」教练说「在这种情况……我们不应该投那球。我们 道歉并希望能让他们感到好受一些。我们会记取教训继续向前」。 ============================================================================== 其实我是担心这篇会被媒体拿去乱组才翻译好存证的XD 骑士队史上并不是第一次发生类似的事,上一次甚至打起群架,对手是小牛. 那个Taco饼真的那麽好吃吗? --
