来源： Ny Times http://tinyurl.com/84ll529 Knicks Escape to Play Another Day By HOWARD BECK The far right side of the dry-erase board in the Knicks’ home locker room is reserved for scheduling, a hand-scrawled, quick- reference guide to workouts, rehabilitation sessions and travel plans. Their Tuesday itinerary — spelled out in thick, black ink and all capital letters — read like redemption: 尼克休息室的白板最右侧，通常保留用来写一些关於行程，或是手写的简单 锻练指南，伤势复原状况以及旅行计划等等。星期二，他们用粗黑的笔迹， 并且是全部大写，写下以下的句子，读起来像是救赎。 “11:00 a.m. — Film.” 11：00 am 看影片 “3:00 p.m. — To South Beach.” 3：00 pm 前往南方的海滩（指 Miami） A strange and twisting season that by all rights should have ended Sunday afternoon will instead last another few days, after a soul- cleansing 89-87 victory over the Miami Heat that kept the Knicks’ playoff hopes alive, if by the narrowest of margins. 所有人都认为星期天中午将是尼克本季的句点了，在一个有如净化灵魂般的的 胜利之後，好像又有了一个诡异又扭转的球季。尼克死里逃生，季後赛还没出 局。 The Knicks still trail in the first-round series, three games to one. But that one is bursting with meaning and satisfaction: the franchise’s first playoff win since 2001. The end of a humiliating drought that lasted an N.B.A.-record 13 games and consumed countless coaches and would-be saviors. The first playoff triumph for Carmelo Anthony and Amar’e Stoudemire as teammates. 尼克仍然 1－3 在第一轮系列战中落後，但是这一胜让球迷沸腾又满意，同时 带有重大意义：自从 2001 年来的第一胜，同时也终结了这令人羞辱的 NBA 纪录 消耗了无数教练的季後赛 13 连败，也是瓜骂加入後的第一胜。 “The first of many,” Stoudemire promised. 阿骂这样承诺着「这只是许多胜利的开始」 His first chance to make good on that promise will come Wednesday, in Game 5 at American Airlines Arena in Miami. History suggests the Knicks cannot make it out of this series, but this was not a day to doubt Stoudemire’s resolve or Anthony’s determination. 星期三在热火主场的 Game5 就是他第一个实现诺言的机会，历史告诉我们 尼克无法撑过这个系列战，但是今天不是一个应该怀疑瓜骂的日子。 Anthony was brilliant in the late stages Sunday, driving the Knicks to victory with 41 points, including a 12-point fourth quarter and a huge 3-pointer in the final minute. Stoudemire — who nearly ended his season with a self-inflicted laceration of his left hand after Game 2 — earned a fantastic bit of redemption, with 20 points and 10 rebounds, and a critical free throw with 14.8 seconds to go. 瓜瓜星期天的最後时刻简直是棒呆了，拿下 41 分，带领尼克拿下这场胜利， 包含了第四节的 12 分，以及最後时刻的关键三分球。阿骂，拖着几乎在 G2 自残受伤，差点终结他本季比赛的左手，拿下 20－10 , 包含最後 14.8 秒的 关键罚球，做了美好的赎罪了。 That foul shot gave the Knicks a 2-point edge and put the pressure on Miami in the final seconds. The Heat’s last possession ended with Dwyane Wade putting up an off-balance, turnaround 3-point shot in front of the Knicks’ bench as time expired. 这颗罚球让尼克领先达二分，同把压力丢给热火队。热火最後的一次进攻在 Wade 一个失去平衡的转身三分球失去结束了。 The ball clanked off the rim, and thousands of blue and orange streamers cascaded from the rafters, a moment many years overdue. 那球打到了篮圈，这时成千上万的蓝橘服装的尼克迷尖叫着从椅子上跳出来 这一刻他们等得太多年了。 Stoudemire and Anthony made 23 of the Knicks’ 32 field goals, their most meaningful tag-team effort since they became teammates 15 months ago. Anthony, who had been bottled up and flustered by LeBron James and Shane Battier all series, unleashed the frustration with a series of timely drives, playing like the star the Knicks were promised. 瓜骂联手拿下尼克 32 个颗命中球的 23 颗，自从他们成为队友以来，最有意 义的一场联手。甜瓜，好像在整个系列战中被 LBJ 跟 八爷封住了，今天完全 从挫折中释放出来，终於打出符合众人期待的那颗超级瓜。 “He wasn’t ready to go home,” Coach Mike Woodson said, smiling broadly. 武僧笑着说「他还不打算回家」 At a minimum, the Knicks avoided a sweep. Now comes the toughest part: winning in Miami, where they are 0-4 this season. No N.B.A. team has won a playoff series after trailing by 3-0, and a vast majority (90 out of 100) have lost in four or five games. 最低限度来说，尼克避免被横扫。现在要面临最强悍的挑战，在迈阿密赢球 本季他们在那里是 0－4。历史上没有球队能从 0-3 翻盘的，而且绝大部份 （90／100）在第四战或第五战就打包了。 注：小牛刚成为第一百支 XD The Knicks’ odds will be even longer, after they lost Baron Davis to a season-ending knee injury Sunday. Davis dislocated his right kneecap during a third-quarter rally, becoming the second Knicks guard to go down in the series. Iman Shumpert tore his left anterior cruciate ligament in Game 1. 在失去了大胡子之後，尼克的赔率恐怕还要更大一些。BD 在第三节大反攻时 右膝脱臼，成为第二个本季列赛中阵亡的尼克後卫，Shump 在第一战时撕毁了 他的左膝前交叉韧带。 保安！有人这样让人挂了又挂，挂了又挂的吗 ? Mike Bibby will probably start at point guard in Game 5, with J. R. Smith as the de facto backup and Toney Douglas as an emergency reserve. It is conceivable that Jeremy Lin, who has been recovering from knee surgery, could be available. The Knicks were not prepared to make that leap yet. Bibby 将会成为第五战的先发控球後卫，丁尺会变成事实上的第一後补人选， TD 则是紧急时才会使用。可以想像的是，刚从手术复原的啾咪，可能也可以上。 尼克队还没有准备好要不要冒险。 After losing the first three games of this series by double digits, and a combined 60 points, the Knicks played with a focused desperation. For the first time, they played a meaningful and riveting fourth quarter. 在三场每场都输到双位数，共输了 60 分之後，尼克看起来根本没望了。 这是他们第一次打出一个有意义而且吸引人的第四节。 Anthony scored on back-to-back layups for a 78-75 lead. James, who had a team-high 27 points, hit two free throws to give Miami a 79- 78 lead. Anthony tied the game at 79-79 (on a free throw) and again at 81-81 (on a 15-footer). Bibby hit a 3-pointer for an 84- 81 lead. Miami tied the game on a 3-pointer from James. 甜瓜连续二个上篮， 78-75 领先，而热火全队得分最高的 LBJ ,投进了二个 罚球，79-78 反超，甜瓜投中了 79－79 平手的罚球跟再次81－81 平手的跳投 BB 投中一颗三分 84-81 领先，迈阿密靠着 LBJ 三分球再度追上平手。 Then, with the shot clock running down and fans screaming nervously, Anthony hit a 3-pointer over Battier — his designated tormentor in the series — giving the Knicks an 87-84 lead with 54.5 seconds left. 然後，在进攻时间快到，全场球迷紧张的尖叫声中，Melo 在系列战中负责要搞定 他的八爷面前投进了一颗三分球，让尼克在 54.5 秒时间到前取得 87-84 领先。 Anthony had the chance to put the game away on the next possession, when Battier fouled him on a 3-point attempt. But he missed the first two free throws, then sank the third for a 4- point lead. 当八爷在下一个回合 Melo 投三分犯规时，Melo 有机会把球赛拉开，但是他 miss 了前二颗罚球，让比赛仅仅只有四分领先。 James cut the margin to 1 point with a 3-point play. LBJ 马上用三分打把比数追到一分差。 Stoudemire was widely criticized by fans and commentators last week after his impulsive smashing of a fire-extinguisher case following Game 2 in Miami. He needed surgery to repair a torn muscle and had been considered doubtful to play again in the series. 阿骂上周 G2 打出灭火神拳之後一直被球迷跟球评批评，他必须要动手术 修复肌肉而且一直被怀疑这个系列赛可能无法再上场了。 Before tip-off, Stoudemire was introduced last, his customary slot, and was welcomed back with a forgiving roar. Hope, not anger, was the predominant feeling Sunday. 在开球的入场，阿骂是最後一个，他习惯的位置，然後他就被原谅的吼叫 包围，用来欢迎他归队。是希望，不是愤怒，这是星期天最主要的感觉。 “I didn’t really feel like I had something to prove,” he said, adding, “It makes me feel better that we won.” 他说：「我不需要证明什麽东西」补充一句「赢球让我觉得好多了」 REBOUNDS Iman Shumpert attended his first game since having knee surgery and vowed to come back stronger next season. “I don’t have any fear,” he said Sunday. “I know when I get back, I hope that this leg is better than ever. It’s going to be stronger than ever.” Shumpert, the Knicks’ best perimeter defender, is expected to need six to eight months to recover. He can only wonder how different the series might have looked had he been on the court. “We could do that, go back and forth with that all the time — if Stat’s healthy, if Jeremy’s healthy,” he said, referring to Amar’e Stoudemire and Jeremy Lin. “But it’s like who we got out there is who we got out there. I still think we’re good enough to beat them.” Shump 手术後参加第一场比赛同时发誓下季回来会更强。「我并不害怕」「我 知道我会回来，我希望腿比以前更好，他会比以前更强壮」。 Shump 是尼克最佳防守员，被预估大约需要 6－8 个月复原。他只能希望系列赛 可以像他在场上时一样。「我们可以做的到，反败为胜，如果阿骂健康，如果 啾咪健康」「但是现在好像我们有哪些人在场上，就是那些人在场上了，我仍然 认为我们能够干掉他们」 -- owlcat◢◤ ▋ ▋█◣ ▋ ▃▅▇ ◤█◥ ▏◣ ▌ ▌ ▇▆▅▄ ◢ ▍▍ ◢◤◤ ▊▌ ▌▋▊▌ ▊ █▃▄▅ ▎▅▅▊ ▎ ▊ ▋ ▋▎▄▍ █ ▌▍ ◢◤◤ ▋▍ ▍▌ ▊ ▊ ▃▃▃ ▏ ▉ ▍▏ ▋▊ ▊▋ ▌▍ ▍▍ ▊▊ ◢◤◤▁▂▃ ▍▎ ▎▎ ▊▋ ▄▊ ████ ▌▍ █▎▉▊ ▍▏ ▌██▋ ◥＿▁▃▄▅ ▏▏ ▏▏ █▊ ▄▅▇█ █▃▃█ ▋▌ █▌██ ▎█ ▅ ▎ ◣ ▂▃▄▅ ◣ ◣ ◥█ ◥██◤ ◢ ◤ ◣ --
