McManamon's five deep thoughts on Cavs
http://www.ohio.com/sports/cavs/18920834.html

1. How important are Game 5s? Larry Bird and Kevin McHale used to treat them
with the same importance as they did Game 7s. They called them mini-Game 7s
in fact.

1.第五戰有多重要？Larry Bird與Kevin McHale視其重要性等同於第七戰。事實上
  ，他們稱之為「小第七戰」(mini-Game 7s)。

2. Think about it and they're right. Game 5 either clinches a series for a
team, or gives a team a huge advantage heading into the final two games. The
Cavs must build off their two wins, but also realize this game is an entity
in itself.

2.他倆老是對的。第五戰不僅為勝隊在該系列吃下定心丸，也讓勝隊在接下來的比
  賽擁有極大的優勢。騎士隊必須贏得另外兩勝，卻也了解到該場比賽本身的性質。

3. The Cavs have some good history on their side. They have won their past
two Game 5s on the road (against the Detroit Pistons twice) and their past
three Game 6s on the road (against the Washington Wizards twice and New
Jersey Nets).

3.騎士隊這一方有著好的過去。他們贏了過去兩年在客場的第五戰(對手皆是活塞)
  ，以及過去三年在客場的第六戰(一次籃網，兩次巫師)。

4. In fact, the last late-series loss the Cavs suffered on the road was two
years ago in Detroit in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Cavs
have not lost an Eastern Conference series since.

4.事實上，騎士隊上一次在客場輸掉系列賽要追溯到兩年前對決活塞的東區準決賽
  。此後，騎士隊從未在東區輸掉任何一輪系列賽。

5. There is some talk that LeBron James might have started to figure out the
Celtics' defense a little bit. He was a little more patient going to the
basket the last game, and that helped him — even early. If that's true, this
could be the breakout game everyone expects eventually will happen. Of
course, in this series, a breakout game could be to match his regular-season
scoring average of 30 points per game.

5.有一些關於LBJ可能已經稍微洞悉了超賽的防守的言論。上一場比賽，對於殺入
  禁區這件事，他顯示出了更些微的耐心，而此點對他有所助益──即使就此定論
  還言之過早。假若真的有所助益，眾人所期待的大爆發可能就會發生在第五戰。
  當然，在本系列，大爆發可能是指達到他平均30分的正規賽水準。


Cavaliers are seeking right recipe for road win
http://www.ohio.com/sports/cavs/18920654.html

Ingredients are all there, but proper mix is needed.

食材都齊了，但還需要適當的烹調法。

(譯按：由於內容部分與上篇外電重疊，故僅節錄翻譯。)

Another key will likely be the play of the Cavaliers' reserves, who played
well Monday night, outscoring the Celtics' reserves 36-17. In Game 3 on
Saturday, it was 29-22 in the Cavs' favor.

另一個獲勝關鍵(譯按：相對於失誤次數)則在於替補：第四戰的得分表現乃以
36-17壓過了波士頓；第三戰則是29-22的優勢。

''I said all along our bench has been huge the last couple of games. Joe
[Smith] and Boobie [Gibson] and Andy [Varejao] were huge last night and those
contributions are going to be needed to win in Boston,'' guard Wally
Szczerbiak said.

帥哥說：「我認為我們所有的替補球員在過去兩戰至關重要。老喬、小吉還有大V昨
          晚打得好極了。若想在波士頓贏球，需要他們持續有這樣的貢獻。」


Feeling at home

家裡的感覺

Something happened on the way to Szczerbiak scoring 14 points and making
several key shots in Game 4. The crowd spontaneously burst out into chants of
''Wally! Wally! Wally!'' After playing inconsistently in the opening series
against the Washington Wizards, Szczerbiak might have found his stroke. In
this series, he's averaging 14 points per game.

第四戰，當帥哥得了14分，並投進幾個關鍵跳投後，有件事情發生了。觀眾開始一
同歡呼：「Wally! Wally! Wally!」。在首輪比賽的不穩定之後，帥哥或許已經找
到了他的感覺。本系列下來，他平均每場得14分。

''I haven't heard a chant like that since my Minnesota days, so that was
really nice, especially in the playoffs,'' he said. ''It really got me fired
up and hopefully it helped the team get fired up. Like I said, our crowd is
just phenomenal. We've just got to go down in a hostile environment, stay
together as a team and try to get it done.''

帥哥說：「自從在灰狼隊的日子以來，我已經沒有再聽過像那樣的歡呼了。這樣的
          感覺真好，特別是在季後賽。」
      ：「那樣真的激起了我的鬥志，希望能夠幫助球隊燃燒。如同我所說的，咱
          們的球迷棒透了。我們必須前往一個充滿敵意的環境，並且團結一心，
          試著將勝利拿到手。」

Eye, eye

Point guard Delonte West left the game Tuesday with an irritated eye but was
able to return. Doctors found no problem, and he'll be ready to go tonight in
Boston.

West上場球受乾眼症(irritated eye)所苦，但醫師診斷後認為沒有問題，他將準備
參與第五戰。
