http://tinyurl.com/yvrosp Spurs take it easy: Kidd-less Nets offer little resistance Web Posted: 02/13/2007 11:57 PM CST Johnny Ludden Express-News EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — In these troubled times, the Spurs will take any pick-me-up that comes their way. So if Jason Kidd wanted to rest his ailing back Tuesday night, the Spurs decided that, for a change, they might as well make the most of the opportunity. 每当马刺遇到窘境的时候,马刺都不会放过每一次可以扭转颓势的机会.所以在Jason Kidd 在星期二晚上决定修战的时候,马刺抓住了机会不让自己更向下沉沦. With a winter storm approaching and the Detroit Pistons waiting on them 500 miles west, the Spurs got their work done early, routing the New Jersey Nets 107-82 at Continental Airlines Arena. 由於明天他们还要在跟在纽泽西西方500英哩的底特律活塞比赛以及一场暴风雪, 所以马刺决定早早结束比赛,终场马刺在大陆美航球馆以107-93击败篮网队. Tim Duncan scored 21 points, and Tony Parker had 19 as the Spurs shot 53.4 percent to end their two-game losing streak. "It was definitely a must win for us," Parker said. 邓肯有21分,帕克也有19分进帐全队的命中率高达53.4%,结束二连败."这是一场我们必 需拿下的一场比赛."帕克说. Having lost four of their previous five games, the Spurs aren't in position to overlook any victory these days, regardless if it comes against another mangled opponent. And the Nets are more mangled than most: In addition to Kidd, they were missing two other starters because of injuries, forward Richard Jefferson and center Nenad Krstic. 在之前5场输了其中的4场比赛中,就算对手在怎麽不完整,也不能对对手掉以轻心.然而 篮网队的阵容只用"不完整"还不足以形容他们的窘境:除了Kidd以外,他们还缺少了两名 先发大将小前锋 Richard Jefferson 和中锋 Nenad Krstic. "It's impossible to be successful with that many people out, and Jason Kidd is the head of the snake on top of the whole deal," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said, "so it's a ridiculous situation to be in." “很难想像要在缺少如此多的球员的情况下获胜,尤其是少了 Jason Kidd 这一个球队领袖, " Gregg Popovich 说,“对他们来说这是非常难过的."开赛前一小时左右,有名记者告诉 Popovich 说 Kidd 将不会出赛,Popovich 听到後说声“噢！”然後立刻转身走回更衣室 中. Considering his team's record against previous star-less opponents, Popovich had reason to be concerned. The Spurs have lost to the Houston Rockets once without Tracy McGrady and another time without Yao Ming; to Utah without Carlos Boozer; to the Los Angeles Lakers without Lamar Odom; to Chicago without Ben Wallace; and to Orlando without Grant Hill. 想到之前输给对上缺少当家球星的球队,Popovich 有足够的理由去忐忑不安. 马刺之前输给火箭两次,一次缺少 Tracy McGrady,一次缺少姚明；另外还输给缺少 Carlos Boozer 的爵士、没有 Lamar Odom 的湖人、没有 Ben Wallace 的公牛 、以及缺少 Grant Hill 的魔术. The Nets, however, hadn't played without Kidd in more than two years, and his absence quickly short-circuited their offense. The Spurs limited New Jersey to 39 percent shooting and broke open the game by holding the Nets scoreless for the first 6 minutes, 31 seconds of the second quarter. 另一方面,上一次篮网在没有 Kidd 的情况下比赛还可追溯到两年前, 而 Kidd 的缺阵也显现在进攻上.马刺将篮网的投篮命中率限制在39%, 在第二节的前6分31秒令对手一分未得,一举拉开比分奠定胜局. While Popovich called the victory a "throw-away game," he was at least happy to see the Spurs, who led by 21 at the half, not let up. "We kept our focus, and we continued to respect them as a group and knew they would hustle and still be physical and try to win the game, " Popovich said. "I thought that was the best part for us. But other than that, it's hard to take a whole lot away from it." 尽管 Popovich 形容这场是“不值一提的比赛",他还是对球队在下半场 没有因为领先21分就轻敌而感到满意.“我们集中注意力,并且尊重对手,知道他们会全力拼抢 、球风强硬来试图赢得比赛,"Popovich 说,“我认为在这方面球队做得很好 .不过除此之外，对於这场比赛并没有太多值得夸耀的地方.” Rookie Marcus Williams, who had been playing well of late, started in Kidd's place and finished with nine points on 4-of-14 shooting and 10 assists. 近来表现不俗的新秀 Marcus Williams 顶替 Kidd 先发出场, 全场14投4中,得到9分和10次助攻. But without Kidd to worry about (or Jefferson for that matter), the Spurs leaned their defense toward Vince Carter and essentially dared the rest of the Nets to beat them. 由於缺少 Kidd 的威胁(以及 Jefferson),马次把防守重心放到 Vince Carter 的身上 ,迫使篮网队的其他球员来投篮. The Spurs blitzed Carter on pick-and-rolls and sometimes ran two defenders at him as soon as he passed midcourt. Carter finished with 18 points but didn't get much support. 每当 Carter 打挡拆配合的时候,马刺都站前压迫对其包夹,有时候当他刚带球过半场 就用双人上去进行包夹.Carter 最终只得到18,没有得到队友有效的火力支援. "We didn't want to allow him to do anything easy, and it worked," said Manu Ginobili, who scored 14 points off the bench. "Sometimes he found the open guys, and that's going to happen, but the main goal was accomplished." “我们尽可能的不让他随心所欲的攻击,结果很成功,”替补出场得到14分的小吉,"有时候 他能找到空档的队有,这在我们意料之中，不过我们还是达到目的(防守 Carter)。” The Nets didn't have nearly as much success containing the Spurs' best player. Duncan made 7 of 9 shots and all seven of his free throws. He also had seven of the 20 unanswered points the Spurs scored to start the second quarter. 而篮网也无法阻止马刺的核心球员.邓肯9投7,罚球7投全中.同时，在第二节开始後的 20-0的进攻高潮中，他一人包办其中的7分. "It's great to play like that, but honestly right now, we're pushing as a team ," Duncan said. "Consistency hasn't been there, and we're trying to develop that and get the guys playing the same way every night." “有这样的表现很令人满意,不过说实话,目前为止,我们最关注的是球队的整体表现,"邓肯 ,说“现在我们的稳定性还远远不够,因此我们正试图在这方面加以提升,使所有人在每场 比赛中都有这样的发挥." Popovich had questioned the Spurs' toughness after losses in Orlando and Miami, saying the performances were "too soft." 在败给魔术和热火的比赛,Popovich 曾质疑球队的韧性,称他们的表现“太软弱". "Obviously, when a coach says that," Parker said, "he's going to want to see a reaction from his team." The Spurs did that much, outrebounding the Nets 41-34. “显然,每当教练这麽说的时後,"帕克说,“他总是希望球队能在场上能够马上有所改观的。” 马刺确实做到这一点,他们在篮板球的拼抢上以41-34超出篮网. Tonight, however, brings a significantly more difficult challenge. The Pistons have won seven consecutive games, and the Spurs will be playing the final game of their rodeo trip. A victory would allow them to salvage a 4-4 split on their travels and send them into the All-Star break with at least a little momentum. 然而,今晚的比赛会困难得多.活塞已经取得7连胜.这也是马刺客场之旅的最後一战. 如果胜利的话,就能勉强以4胜4负的战绩结束旅程,带着好心情进入周末全明星赛. "Every game right now for us is a big game especially with the way we're up and down," Duncan said. "We're going to approach tomorrow the same way we approached today with a lot of energy and not thinking it's the end of the trip, but that we need to get this game." “现在对我们来说,每场比赛都很重要,特别是我们表现起伏不定的情况下更是如此,"邓肯 说,"明天的比赛要打出和今晚一样的拼劲,不要去想这是客场之旅的最後一战,而是带有 必胜的决心进入比赛." -- 内没正妹进来看看 http://0rz.tw/412i3 --
