Phil Sheridan: Sixers show they're a good team, no matter the opponent http://aggbot.com/Philadelphia-76ers-News/article/16106860 It is time to stop talking about measuring-stick opponents for these 76ers and just enjoy them for what they are: a very good young team with a great coach and a bright future. Are they threats to win the NBA title this year? Probably not, but neither are 80 percent of the teams in the league Have they earned the right not to have every win graded on a curve determined by subtracting the quality of the opponent and dividing by the impact of the compressed schedule? Yes, and hell yes. 不要再拿对手强度来嘴76人了，就好好的享受这支年轻、有个好教练， 并有着光明前途的好球队吧！ 76人今年有机会拿冠军吗？可能没办法... 但是有80%的球队也都没冠军相啊 ( ￣ c￣)y▂ξ 那76人有资格不再被嘴炮说他们的成绩是因为专打弱队或是赛程压缩害别人打不好了吗？ 废话！当然啊！ It should be enough, on a February Monday, to find the Wells Fargo Center packed with fans, many clad in Lakers gear and many more bellowing "Beat L.A., beat L.A." as if Iverson or Erving were in the Sixers huddle. It should be enough that they did just that. "That was an amazing win for us," Doug Collins, the aforementioned great coach, said after his team stunned the Lakers with a late rally and a 95-90 win. "To hear the fans out there chanting, 'Beat L.A.,' took me back to 1980, when I was here as a player. That was pretty nice to hear." What was also pretty nice, for the Sixers and their newly reenergized fans, was that this win came very much at the expense of Kobe Bryant. 今天咱们的主场满满都是人，有些是来帮湖人加油的，但更多人喊的是Beat LA －就好像AI或Dr.J在一样，这对我们来说已经很足够了。 Doug：这是场令人惊艳的胜利，球迷都在喊Beat LA，让我好像回到80年代 我在这打球时一样，听起来超爽的～～ 但对76人和球迷们来说更爽的是，这场胜利是来自Kobe自爆 On the very night he passed old teammate and nemesis Shaquille O'Neal for fifth place all-time among NBA scorers, Bryant almost single-handedly blew the Lakers' fourth-quarter lead. He did it with desperate, off-balance, ill-advised shots. You know, the kind he normally makes at clutch time. The kind he was making in a 24-point first half that had the Lakers fans in the Center on their feet. Now this may have just been a single off-night in a long season, or it may have been something a bit more significant. Listen to Andre Iguodala, who annoyed and frustrated Bryant defensively throughout the second half. "He exerts a lot of energy," Iguodala said of Bryant. "He's aging a little bit. Something told me it would be hard for him to keep the pace." 在这场比赛中Kobe超越了Shaq成为史上得分第五多， 但他在第四节几乎是只手毁了球队的领先 他投了一些高难度的球，在上半场拿下24分让湖迷爽歪歪，但是第四节都投不进 这只是漫长球季中的一场比赛，但可以从中看出很多东西， 让我们来听听下半场守死Kobe的Iggy怎麽说 "他用尽了力气，" Iggy说，"可能是老了让他有点跟不上节奏" No one has a better feel for the bull than the matador, and Iguodala had just spent a lot of up-close time with Bryant. So if the man with five championship rings is, at 33, starting to fade, that would be awfully significant. It is more likely, though, that he simply delivered an ordinary performance on what was, for him, just an ordinary night. And that brings us back to these Sixers and where they stand on the long journey from the middle of the pack to the front. Bryant has spent the past 12 years at or near the front. He has been to the NBA Finals seven times, has won five times. He has been the NBA Finals MVP twice. The question isn't whether the Sixers were able to harass him into some bad shots on Feb. 6. It is whether they could do the same night after night if the calendar were flipped over to June. 没有人比斗牛士更了解牛，所以Iggy说Kobe老了是可信的， 但也有可能对Kobe来说这就是场平常的比赛而他也拿出正常的表现 总之76人现在已经从联盟中段班走向前段班 Kobe在过去12年来都在前段班，7次打进总冠军赛并赢了5次，其中2次拿到MVP 重点不是76人今天迫使Kobe做了一些勉强的出手， 而是在接下来的赛程中能不能继续维持这麽好的防守表现 "You have to be a strong-willed player to play against Kobe Bryant," Collins said. "Those kinds of players break your spirit. . . . The easiest thing to do is get so discouraged. I've seen it happen. I had Michael Jordan. I saw what he would do to guys when he would make incredible shots." Like Jordan, Bryant has distinguished himself by making those kinds of shots in the biggest games. Also like Jordan, the time will come when Bryant can't physically do it anymore. That time does not seem to be here yet. "对上Kobe的时候你必须有坚强的意志，不然他就会打到你信心崩溃"，Doug说， "就像我以前看MJ用神一般的投篮打爆那些防守者一样" Kobe像MJ一样总是在重要的比赛中投进关键球， 但也和MJ一样，身体总有一天会让他无法再做出这种动作，只是现在时间还没到 Many of these Sixers learned the difference between midseason and the postseason firsthand against the Miami Heat last year. They seem to have absorbed that lesson and are anxiously trying to get back again, with a better seed, to apply it. In that sense, this team feels a little bit like the Phillies when they began to realize they were a good team. "It's basketball," said Lou Williams, who out-Kobe'd Kobe in the fourth quarter. "We all lace them up. If we play good enough basketball, we feel like we can compete with anybody. We're young. We feel like we can win games. Once the ball jumps up, it's a fifty-fifty chance to win." The Phillies took a big step when Jimmy Rollins pronounced them "the team to beat" in the National League East, when they stopped looking to see if they could compete with the Mets or Braves. Pretty soon, other teams were measuring themselves against the Phillies. The Sixers aren't there yet. But they are past having their wins graded on that curve. They're a good team and getting better with each confidence-building win. Are they a great team? Let's put it this way. When they are, no one will have to ask. 球员们从去年第一轮输热火的经验中记取教训，今年要以更高种子的身分进季後赛 就像费城人队一样，咱们的球员开始了解自己是支好球队 Lou："只要我们打得够好，我们可以和任何人抗衡！我们年轻，并且认为我们可以赢球， 每场比赛我们都有一半的机率可以赢" 费城人想通这点的时候他们就爆气了， 他们不再怀疑自己是不是能和大都会或勇士这种强队打， 反而是对手开始以费城人为标准来衡量自身的实力 76人还没达到这个境界，但是随着一场场的胜利他们不断在进步 那麽揪～竟76人是不是支强队呢？ 这麽说吧：当他们成为真正的强队的时候，你又何必问？ --
