SAN ANTONIO -- The San Antonio Spurs are done, and April isn't even over yet. 圣安东尼奥—四月还没结束，马刺就已被淘汰了。 "I don't think I've been off this early in a long, long time," Tim Duncan said. Duncan说:长久以来，我没想到我会那麽早就出局。 This is how Duncan, Tony Parker and the winningest NBA team of the last decade measures being ousted from the playoffs in only five games: For the first time since 2000, the Spurs aren't moving past the opening round. 自1999-2000年球季没过第一轮後，这个由Duncan和Parker所领军的"10年来NBA最会赢 球队"首次在季後赛只打了五场就出局。 The Dallas Mavericks are after eliminating San Antonio with a 106-93 victory on Tuesday night, their first postseason series victory since 2006. Dirk Nowitzki scored 31 points, and if sixth-seeded Dallas technically upset the higher-slotted Spurs, the Mavs certainly never were the inferior team in this series. 小牛队在礼拜二的晚上以106比93淘汰了马刺，这也是在他们06那不可说的一年後第一次 赢得系列战。伟大的Dirk老大狂得31分，在这个系列战中，小牛从未让自己处於第六种子 的弱势，他们非常有技巧地翻掉了高顺位的马刺队。 Dallas finished off the Spurs by winning three straight, starting with holding the Spurs to their fewest points ever in a playoff game in Game 3. It finished with the Spurs getting the rare sensation of a season-ending defeat on their home court, which has happened only twice in the Duncan era - both times at the hands of Dallas. 从马刺在第三战创下队史季後赛得分新低开始，马刺三连败给小牛。其实马刺很少在自己 家中被淘汰出局。在Duncan的时代里，也只发生了两次而已，但这两次，好死不死，都是 小牛送的。该说什麽呢?XD! "We've accomplished one little baby step in winning a series," Mavericks point guard Jason Kidd said. "Now it starts over again, and it's the first team to four. We'll have maybe a day to enjoy it, or a night, but that's it." 小牛队的控球後卫Jason Kidd表示:「赢得这个系列战是我们跨出的一小步，我们也许会 乐在其中整天或整晚，但这欢乐也仅止於此，我们还要继续向前。而这只是我们要赢的第 一支球队，我们还要打赢三支队伍。」 The Mavericks advance to the Western Conference semifinals to play either Denver or New Orleans. The Nuggets lead that series 3-1 and can finish off the Hornets on Wednesday. 小牛队前进到季後赛的第二轮，他们将可能对上黄蜂或是金块。金块在礼拜三大胜黄蜂取 得了3比1听牌的优势。 Duncan scored 30 and Tony Parker had 26 but again got little help - the story of the series for the two-dimensional Spurs. Predictions that the Spurs were doomed while Manu Ginobili sat out the playoffs with a bum ankle were validated. 尽管Duncan以及Parker各拿下30和26分，但这对结果仍然没多大的帮助，而这也是这个系 列战这两个马刺双杰的悲情故事。其实当Ginobili因为脚踝的受伤而整季报销後，许多人 就预测马刺逃不过此劫了。 For Duncan, it's the first time in his career he couldn't lead the Spurs past the opening round. "They had more firepower than us. They played better than us," said Duncan, who never played in San Antonio's first-round loss to Phoenix in 2000 because of a knee injury. "However you want to put it, obviously they were the better team this year. That's all you can say." 对Duncan来说，这是他生涯第一次不能带领马刺迈入第二轮。「他们有更多的火力支援， 他们的确打得比我们出色。」Duncan是这样说的。(他因为膝伤没有参予到马刺10年前在第 一轮被太阳淘汰的系列战。) 「尽管你想赢球，但明显地他们今年是更好的球队，你只能 这麽说了。」 Getting to the West semifinals is a dramatic turn for the Mavericks, who pulled together to win seven of nine entering the playoffs and have now won 11 of their last 14. 挺进第二轮对小牛来说真是个戏剧性的转折。小牛在季末7战6胜拉尾盘进入季後赛，而现 在，他们在14场比赛中赢了11场。 "We're not going to be favored in the series, whoever it is," Mavs guard Jason Terry said. "We're just going to have to continue to play hard." 「我们之中不会有人因为这系列战而受到优待。」小牛的後卫Terry说:「我们仍必须打的 更积极。」 翻译一下外电，希望有助於提升版上的讨论风气。 如果有错误也请不吝指教。 BTW，我只翻有关小牛的部份。 也希望小牛队可以继续前进，并在六月取得最後的胜利。 Let's Go Mavs. -- No matter what I have to do, I will wait for you. --
