Little trouble thus far for Big Three

Pierce, Allen, Garnett enjoying strong starts

-----------------------------------------

MEMPHIS — You can see it when Ray Allen drills a 3-pointer. When Kevin Garnett
dunks on a defender. When Paul Pierce drains one from the elbow.

It hasn’t gone this smoothly for the Celtics’ Big Three in a while.

There was no telling how the stars would hold up over, say, four seasons, but
this was how it was drawn up back in 2007. Garnett would be a demon, averaging
a double-double. Allen would be a sniper, raining so many 3-pointers he’d
eventually land in Reggie Miller’s neighborhood. Pierce would be the closer,
snuffing out rallies with big shots.

But the last two seasons, there was always something preventing that. Garnett’
s 2009 knee surgery. The assortment of injuries that made Pierce look like a
different player last season. The trade-deadline pressure that seemed to rob
Allen of his shooting touch early last year.

The Celtics have had their issues to start this season, but none have involved
the three cornerstones. Between Allen’s sharp-shooting, Pierce’s takeover
ability, and Garnett’s rabid aggressiveness, the Big Three look as cohesive as
they have since 2008, before a wave of injury-fueled turbulence.

當你看到RAY優美依然的三分球，KG式的在對方頭上狠狠暴扣，和PP的招牌投籃，
你知道他們不是因此戰勝傷痛，而是根本無懼傷痛。

過去的兩年，他們每個人都傷痛纏身，今年也會是這樣，因為他們已經不再年輕了。

“I think we have a good awareness about ourselves,’’ said Allen yesterday,
coming off of a game in which he scored 35 points, Pierce scored 25 points, and
Garnett had a 16-point, 13-rebound contribution in a 112-107 win over the Heat
in Miami. “When we move from one game to the next, we know the pitfalls, the
things that are going to keep us from getting better and building our
chemistry, so we try to avoid those things.’’

RAY說：「我認為我們越來越了解自己。」特別是在經過昨天那場RAY狂射35分，
PP也有25分、KG貢獻16分13籃板，C's以112-107的比數打敗熱火的比賽後，
RAY表示：「我們經過一場又一場的比賽，我們有默契，我們越來越好，
我們知道球場上的陷阱，然後我們會試著避開。」

Kendrick Perkins’s knee surgery meant the starting lineup would be different
for the first time since 2007, but injuries to reinforcements Shaquille O’Neal
(bone bruise, right knee) and Jermaine O’Neal (left knee soreness) have made
it hard to develop consistency. But along with Rajon Rondo, the core has
produced each game.

PERK、大歐、小歐的傷勢讓球隊的先發名單有所變動，但這支球隊已建立以RONDO為核心
的運轉方式。

“The way I look at it, right now it’s early, hopefully we can stay that way,
stay intact for the rest of the year,’’ Pierce said. “I like our chances if
we do.’’

PP說：「我是這麼看待的，我希望這一整年我們可以保持狀態，只要我們做得到，
我們就有機會。」

In a way, the fact that most of the talk surrounding Garnett this season has
been about his mouth is a good thing. It means no one’s thinking about his
knee anymore.

Garnett’s run-in with Charlie Villanueva came on a night when he dropped 22
points on the Pistons, missing only three of his 12 shots. He mixed it up with
the Bucks’ Andrew Bogut, an exchange that drew double technicals, but that was
in a second half when he scored 10 of his 13 points, a game the Celtics won in
overtime.

It seems like every game this season, Garnett has been on the dunking end of a
Rondo lob. Seeing him swing from the rim makes the 18 months since his surgery
seem like a lifetime ago.

KG的傷勢始終讓人擔憂，但今年的他表現得就好像過去的18個月，就只是過去。

“He just has so much life in him right now, it’s great,’’ said coach Doc
Rivers, who added that he didn’t know whether Garnett would ever again come
close to his 2007 form. “I said it last year, I knew he’d be better, but you
just don’t know.’’

河流說：「現在的KG是一種籃球生命的體現，這很偉大。」

沒有人知道現在的KG是不是直逼2007年的狀態，河流說：「就算是最後一年，我也知道
KG會越來越好，但沒有人知道最後一年是什麼時候。」

Allen has pretty much avoided injuries since coming to Boston.

RAY從來到波士頓開始，一直極力避免受傷。

“When you talk about Kevin’s injury in ’09 and my injuries last year, Ray’s
pretty much been the only one that’s been a steady force,’’ Pierce said. “
The only guy that’s been healthy.’’

PP表示：「當人們談論著KG和我的傷勢，RAY是身體狀態最穩定的那個。」

Pierce is averaging a team-high 20.2 points per game, shooting 48.5 percent. He
came into training camp slimmer, knowing how difficult last season was
physically.

現在的PP平均每場能有20.2分，投籃命中率48.5%，他知道這對上個賽季的他來說有多
困難。

“It’s great, and he’s taking great care of his body,’’ Allen said. “He’s
slimmed down, he’s really focused on his body, and that’s big for the team
because we need him on the floor. Just like nobody has to tell me to get in
shape or take care of my body, I’ve just got to do it because the team needs
me on the floor. That’s the beautiful thing about us veteran guys.’’

RAY說：「這是件好事情！PP知道該如何照顧自己的身體，他減重，他確實關注自己
的身體狀態，這對球隊來說是很重要的，因為我們需要PP在場上，而我一直以來也是如此
維持我的狀態，因為我知道球隊需要我。懂得照顧自己身體對我們老將來說是很重要
的事情。」

On Thursday night, Pierce scored 10 points in the third quarter, when Miami was
making its run. He followed up with a postgame swipe at LeBron James, posting a
tweet that read, “It’s been a pleasure to bring my talents to South Beach,
now on to Memphis.’’

擊敗熱火後，PP小小的在tweeter上酸了LBJ一下 ：)

Rivers said it was “Paul’s first game where he was the go-to,
takeover-the-team guy, and that’s what we want him to be.’’

河流稱讚PP對熱火一戰的表現，他說：「這是PP跳出來接管的第一場比賽，這正
是我們要他做的！」

Everything with the Big Three is ideal, even if other pieces of the puzzle haven
’t come together. The Celtics sent Jermaine O’Neal back to Boston early
yesterday to have his knee examined.

球隊的完整拼圖還沒完成，仍缺少了幾位球員，但三巨頭的一切是完美的。

“The Big Three have been healthy,’’ Rondo said. “But it takes more than
three guys, or five guys, to win a game. We’re still trying get Shaq and
Jermaine to play one game together.’’

RONDO說：「我們需要健康的三巨頭，需要更多健康的隊友才能贏得比賽，我們期待
大小歐一起健康加入的時候。」
