SAN ANTONIO -- The San Antonio Spurs are done, and April isn't even over yet.
聖安東尼奧—四月還沒結束,馬刺就已被淘汰了。
"I don't think I've been off this early in a long, long time," Tim Duncan said.
Duncan說:長久以來,我沒想到我會那麼早就出局。
This is how Duncan, Tony Parker and the winningest NBA team of the last decade
measures being ousted from the playoffs in only five games: For the first time
since 2000, the Spurs aren't moving past the opening round.
自1999-2000年球季沒過第一輪後,這個由Duncan和Parker所領軍的"10年來NBA最會贏
球隊"首次在季後賽只打了五場就出局。
The Dallas Mavericks are after eliminating San Antonio with a 106-93 victory on
Tuesday night, their first postseason series victory since 2006. Dirk Nowitzki
scored 31 points, and if sixth-seeded Dallas technically upset the
higher-slotted Spurs, the Mavs certainly never were the inferior team in this
series.
小牛隊在禮拜二的晚上以106比93淘汰了馬刺,這也是在他們06那不可說的一年後第一次
贏得系列戰。偉大的Dirk老大狂得31分,在這個系列戰中,小牛從未讓自己處於第六種子
的弱勢,他們非常有技巧地翻掉了高順位的馬刺隊。
Dallas finished off the Spurs by winning three straight, starting with holding
the Spurs to their fewest points ever in a playoff game in Game 3. It finished
with the Spurs getting the rare sensation of a season-ending defeat on their
home court, which has happened only twice in the Duncan era - both times at the
hands of Dallas.
從馬刺在第三戰創下隊史季後賽得分新低開始,馬刺三連敗給小牛。其實馬刺很少在自己
家中被淘汰出局。在Duncan的時代裡,也只發生了兩次而已,但這兩次,好死不死,都是
小牛送的。該說什麼呢?XD!
"We've accomplished one little baby step in winning a series," Mavericks point
guard Jason Kidd said. "Now it starts over again, and it's the first team to
four. We'll have maybe a day to enjoy it, or a night, but that's it."
小牛隊的控球後衛Jason Kidd表示:「贏得這個系列戰是我們跨出的一小步,我們也許會
樂在其中整天或整晚,但這歡樂也僅止於此,我們還要繼續向前。而這只是我們要贏的第
一支球隊,我們還要打贏三支隊伍。」
The Mavericks advance to the Western Conference semifinals to play either
Denver or New Orleans. The Nuggets lead that series 3-1 and can finish off the
Hornets on Wednesday.
小牛隊前進到季後賽的第二輪,他們將可能對上黃蜂或是金塊。金塊在禮拜三大勝黃蜂取
得了3比1聽牌的優勢。
Duncan scored 30 and Tony Parker had 26 but again got little help - the story
of the series for the two-dimensional Spurs. Predictions that the Spurs were
doomed while Manu Ginobili sat out the playoffs with a bum ankle were
validated.
儘管Duncan以及Parker各拿下30和26分,但這對結果仍然沒多大的幫助,而這也是這個系
列戰這兩個馬刺雙傑的悲情故事。其實當Ginobili因為腳踝的受傷而整季報銷後,許多人
就預測馬刺逃不過此劫了。
For Duncan, it's the first time in his career he couldn't lead the Spurs past
the opening round. "They had more firepower than us. They played better than
us," said Duncan, who never played in San Antonio's first-round loss to
Phoenix in 2000 because of a knee injury. "However you want to put it,
obviously they were the better team this year. That's all you can say."
對Duncan來說,這是他生涯第一次不能帶領馬刺邁入第二輪。「他們有更多的火力支援,
他們的確打得比我們出色。」Duncan是這樣說的。(他因為膝傷沒有參予到馬刺10年前在第
一輪被太陽淘汰的系列戰。) 「儘管你想贏球,但明顯地他們今年是更好的球隊,你只能
這麼說了。」
Getting to the West semifinals is a dramatic turn for the Mavericks, who pulled
together to win seven of nine entering the playoffs and have now won 11 of
their last 14.
挺進第二輪對小牛來說真是個戲劇性的轉折。小牛在季末7戰6勝拉尾盤進入季後賽,而現
在,他們在14場比賽中贏了11場。
"We're not going to be favored in the series, whoever it is," Mavs guard Jason
Terry said. "We're just going to have to continue to play hard."
「我們之中不會有人因為這系列戰而受到優待。」小牛的後衛Terry說:「我們仍必須打的
更積極。」
翻譯一下外電,希望有助於提升版上的討論風氣。
如果有錯誤也請不吝指教。
BTW,我只翻有關小牛的部份。
也希望小牛隊可以繼續前進,並在六月取得最後的勝利。
Let's Go Mavs.
