It's hard to create a rivalry when there isn't one.
要嘗試把這兩支球隊塑造成宿敵的樣子，還真的有點難耶。
But sometime over the next two weeks, be it from the words of Mark Cuban and
Phil Jackson or the actions of Kobe Bryant, maybe something will be sparked
between the Lakers and Dallas Mavericks.
但無論如何，接下來的兩個禮拜你可能會時常聽到Phil和Cuban兩個人嘴砲來嘴砲去的。
They haven't seen each other in the playoffs in 23 years, back when Andrew
Bynum was all of seven months, too young for him to even try boxing out
toddlers.
這兩支球隊已經23年沒有在季後賽碰頭了，上次他們在交戰的時候Bynum才7個月大，
連要他學走路都還早了點。
The Lakers and Mavericks have played each other 88 times in comparatively
meaningless games since the Lakers won the 1988 Western Conference finals in
seven games, Magic Johnson wrasslin' up 24 points, 11 assists and nine
rebounds to give the Lakers the West for the seventh time in the '80s.
自從1988年的西區冠軍賽湖人跟小牛血戰7場後，靠著Magic Johnson接近大三元的
表現幫湖人帶走了80年代的第七座西區冠軍後，這兩隊已經打了88場較無意義的季賽了。
They've since played Portland in the playoffs eight times, San Antonio and
Phoenix seven times, Houston six and Utah five times.
湖人在季後賽較常遇到拓荒者、馬刺、太陽或著是火箭跟爵士這些球隊。
遇到的次數分別是8、7、7、6、5。
They finally get to see each other again Monday at Staples Center to start
the best-of-seven West semifinals.
然而這兩隊在暌違了23年後，終於星期一要在湖人主場展開bo7的西區準決賽。
It's been a Dallas demolition derby from the start, the Lakers losing the
regular-season series only three times since the Mavericks joined the NBA in
1980.
事實上，在1980年小牛加入NBA後，湖人每季和他們的對戰系列賽僅僅只輸過三次。
The Lakers have never been eliminated by Dallas in the playoffs (3-0) and are
riding a 10-3 run in regular-season games, including 2-1 this season.
湖人從來沒有在季後賽被小牛淘汰過(3-0)，另外包括本季的對戰2-1，湖人在季賽
和他們的對戰紀錄是不錯的10-3唷。
Some cross-country zinging between Jackson and Cuban added a hint of tension
between the teams over the years, but not to worry, TNT analyst Charles
Barkley is trying his best to create a rivalry … even if it's only with
Lakers fans.
雖然這兩隊好像只有Phil和Cuban喜歡打打嘴砲，但別緊張，惡漢Barkley正很努力
的想把兩隊塑造成死敵的樣子…雖然應該只有湖人迷會受到影響啦。
"The Dallas Mavericks are the best team in Texas and they're going to upset
the Los Angeles Lakers," Barkley said Thursday on the air, giving the Lakers
little credit after eliminating New Orleans. "They played against a bunch of
munchkins. Those munchkins are going home. The Mavericks aren't munchkins."
"小牛可是德州最強!他們絕對會給湖人好看的。"
"他們接下來要面對一堆軟蛋，這些軟蛋準備回家放假吧。小牛隊可都是不好惹的。"
Barkley在湖人淘汰黃蜂後在廣播中這麼說。
Bynum, the youngest starter on either team by five years, gets a chance to
prove he belongs with the big boys.
He was a key in every game against Dallas this season, for better or worse.
也許這個系列真的要看Bynum的了，本季對小牛打得好與壞，他都扮演重要的角色。
When the Lakers lost in January, 109-100, Bynum scored only 10 points to go
with seven rebounds. He was quiet, like the Lakers in their swampy midseason
slump.
當湖人在一月以100-109輸給小牛時，Bynum的成績單僅僅只有10分7籃板。
他在場上似乎就像消失了一樣。
But they won at Dallas in mid-March, 96-91, Bynum going for 22 points and 15
rebounds to offset Bryant's six-for-20 shooting.
但在三月中湖人以96-91贏下來的那場比賽，Bynum可是以22分15籃板的成績支援了
Kobe他6-20慘澹的命中率。
Then the Lakers destroyed Dallas in late March, 110-82, Bynum going for 18
points and 13 rebounds as Bryant again shot poorly (eight for 21).
接著湖人在三月底以110-82大勝小牛，儘管Kobe的命中率還是有點低迷(8-21)，
Bynum再度繳出了18分13籃板幫助湖人拿下勝利。
How important is the kid to this rivalry? Sorry. Nonrivalry.
那你認為這個小子在這系列賽裡重不重要啊?
"Not important at all," Bryant said with sarcasm. "He's our anchor
defensively. On top of that, he's shown the ability to knock down jumpers,
which is going to give teams a headache because now you have two 7-footers
that can pick and pop, as well as roll to the basket and post up deep."
"其實也還好啦，喔不是，我開玩笑的啦。"
"他現在可是我們禁區防守的中心耶，你有沒有看到他最近在禁區上緣的秀了幾顆
跳投啊？不過對我們來說也是有點麻煩耶，球隊有兩個七呎長人可以讓你選擇
要給誰P&P呀，或是給誰P&R攻擊禁區，還真是頭痛。"
Kobe表示。
Indeed, Bynum has slowly added an outside dimension to his game, scoring on a
16-footer and 11-footer Thursday against New Orleans.
這倒讓我想起Bynum這小子還真的在星期五對黃蜂的比賽投進了些中距離耶。
The Mavericks took out Portland in six games in the first round and might not
be taken lightly by the Lakers, though that's dangerous to assume.
無論如何，小牛在第一輪花了六場幹掉阿拓晉級到第二輪，真的不行對這隻球隊
過於輕敵呀，他們會把我們逼到何種險境還不知道呢。
Ron Artest will certainly take them seriously.
阿泰表示他一定會很認真的看待這個系列賽。
He was sitting by himself in the locker room after the Lakers eliminated New
Orleans. He was asked whether he was glad the first round was over.
在湖人淘汰黃蜂後，阿泰一個人坐在更衣室裡接受訪問。
當被問到他對於第一輪圓滿結束有沒有覺得很爽。
"I don't really look at it as being over. I look at it as if we've got more
things to do," he said.
"別鬧了，這只是個開始而已。"
阿泰帥氣的表示。
Then he paused, before speaking in a deathly earnest tone. "It's not over
'til it's really over."
接著他停下來想了一下，然後很認真的說
"在一切圓滿結束前，真的都沒有甚麼好爽的。"
Maybe a rivalry will finally begin.
嗯，看來這會是兩隊變成宿敵的第一個系列賽。
Shaw interest percolating
Shaw對於執掌兵符有興趣唷。
The Houston Rockets have received permission from the Lakers to talk to
assistant coach Brian Shaw for their head coaching vacancy.
最近火箭隊得到湖人的許可，同意他們去挖腳湖人的助理教練Brian Shaw去填補
他們總教練的缺。
Shaw, 45, is a candidate to take over for Jackson as the Lakers' new coach
next season, but he will interview with the Rockets either this weekend or
after the West semifinals.
45歲的Shaw同時也是明年湖人的總教練的候選人之一，但在這裡拜或是跟小牛的系列賽
結束後，他也會去火箭那邊面試一下。
Lakers assistants are not allowed to interview with other teams while a
playoff series is in progress.
湖人在系列賽開始的期間是禁止這種面試活動的。
Shaw has been an assistant with the Lakers for seven seasons and was a member
of three Lakers championship teams as a player in the early 2000s.
Shaw已經當了湖人的助理教練7個球季了，他也是00年代湖人三連霸的球員之一。
