[外電] Kobe Bryant Puts Finger On Shooting Woes

Kobe Bryant is in a shooting slump. It was at the heart of two Lakers losses
last week, and it continued in a win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday night
(his teammates picked up the slack this time).
老大最近命中率低得離譜，算是間接造成了上禮拜兩場戰敗，而對週日對公鹿時手感也
還沒回來，還好有其他隊友們一個比一個爭氣。

Kobe made just  4 of 21 against Milwaukee. He was 10 of 30 against the
Clippers. He was 14 of 37 against Portland: That is 31.8% over the last three
games. And it’s not like he has stopped shooting -- that’s not how Kobe
functions, he is too confident to stop trying.
對公鹿老大出手21進4，對快艇30進10，對拓荒者37進14：也就是三場平均僅僅31.8%的
命中率。不過看來Kobe也沒打算減少出手次數，因為他不是這樣打球的，他不會停止
嘗試。

It’s all about the finger he fractured last month.
“I tried to play with the splint off, but it’s going back on,” Kobe said
after the Bucks game. “Just trying to get some flexibility back. The finger
felt pretty good so we tried to go without the splint, but it isn’t strong
enough.”
一切都是因為上個月食指的撕裂骨折。
「我想說試試看沒有上夾板的感覺，不過我想我還是需要他。」
「就只是想要讓手指靈活一點，因為傷感覺有好了不少，所以我們決定要拆掉夾板，
但結果就是手指其實還不夠力。」

Kobe suffered an avulsion fracture in his index finger of his right hand on
Dec. 11 against Minnesota. For those of you without medical degrees, that is
when the tendon comes off from the bone and takes a little piece of the bone
with it. It hurts about as much as it sounds like it would.
十二月十一日對上灰狼的時候Kobe的右手食指有了這個韌帶撕裂性骨折。
如果你不是醫學系的，讓我解釋給你聽：
所謂韌帶撕裂性股折得意思就是，在肌肉強力收縮的時候，
一小片連接著韌帶的骨頭整塊被扯下來。
嗯，對，聽起來很痛，實際上也這麼痛。

Since then, Kobe has favored his left hand — he even took an 18-footer with
his left hand against Milwaukee that generated laughs from teammates — while
trying to find ways to play with the sore shooting hand. That meant at first
what Phil Jackson called a “prosthetic” – a splint designed to support the
finger. Despite that, the finger was aggravated a couple times and the
swelling came back, like after a recent game against Sacramento. Kobe has
tried a hard splint, a soft splint and most recently no splint (just a little
tape). Kobe said after the game Sunday that no splint gave him the best feel
but his finger wasn’t strong enough and shots were just coming up short.
那次之後，Kobe就開始多次以左手出手，他甚至在對公鹿那場比賽在18英呎外以左手
投籃，因為右手實在太痠，隊友們都笑了。
如同上次對國王後的狀況，手指的狀況惡化了幾次並且又開始腫。
Kobe試過了硬的夾板、軟的夾板、沒有夾板（只有一些繃帶）。
他說沒上夾板的時候其實手感最好，但是沒辦法，手指就是不夠力。

Those short shots — and the volume of them — is why the Lakers had lost two
in a row before the Bucks came to town and had a whole team shooting like
Kobe for a night. As is the team pattern, when other players are not shooting
well Kobe tries to take the team on his back, except that with his finger
injury he couldn’t carry them.
那些沒進的球---以及它們的數量---是上週輸給快艇和拓荒者的關鍵。
對公鹿那場湖人整隊出手的表現都和Kobe一樣強大，只有Kobe自己不像自己。
當其他隊友表現不好時，Kobe總試圖挽回頹勢，
只是現在食指這樣的狀況讓他無力回天。

But as the Lakers head into their toughest couple weeks of the season — San
Antonio and Dallas this week, Orlando and the Celtics in the coming weeks —
 the Lakers are going to need Kobe and his finger to find their stroke again. 
隨著賽事持續，接下來兩週將會是整季中湖人隊最大的挑戰，
下週對上小牛和馬刺，下下週對魔術和賽爾提克，
湖人真的急需Kobe找回手感。

Or this modest two-game losing streak will not seem so bad.
要不然，這二連敗的紀錄可能還不是最慘的。
