Mavericks-Jazz Preview

The Dallas Mavericks and the Utah Jazz have both won seven straight games, so
an argument could certainly be made for either being the NBA's hottest team.

They'll get to settle that matter themselves.

達拉斯小牛跟猶他爵士兩隻七連勝的球隊狹路相逢
這場比賽結束後可以確定的是
有一支球隊獲得八連勝並成為聯盟最火熱的球隊
兩支球隊都會盡全力搶下這場勝利

The Western Conference contenders square off Friday night, when the Jazz look
to hand the Mavericks a sixth consecutive loss in Salt Lake City.

小牛目前在鹽湖城是處於六連敗的情況...

Neither team got off to a particularly hot start, with Dallas (14-4) losing
two of its first five games and Utah (15-5) dropping three of its first five
by an average of 15.0 points.

沒有其他球隊的近況是像小牛跟爵士一樣火熱
雖然他們的開季的前五場比賽都很糟

Those mediocre beginnings have quickly given way to a pair of impressive
streaks. The Mavericks have won their last seven by an average of 8.7 points.
The Jazz have had an even more comfortable time, winning by an average of
14.2 points after stretching their streak to seven with a 110-88 victory over
Indiana on Wednesday.

那些糟透的表現已經因為這波連勝而被忘記了
小牛在這波連勝平均贏對手8.7分
而爵士則是在星期三以22分贏了溜馬隊之後
這波連勝的平均勝分來到了14.2分

"We could have exploded early in the season," coach Jerry Sloan said. "Guys
could have gone south. But they stayed together."

教皇"我們沒有被開季給打敗  球員們並沒有因此渙散反而更凝聚在一起"

Utah has shot 49.8 percent, averaged 26.9 assists and held opponents to 90.4
points per game during the streak, its longest since a nine-game run Jan.
20-Feb. 9.

猶他在這波連勝中
每場投籃命中率為4成98  平均送出26.9次的助攻
還讓對手只得了90.4分
而七連勝也是去年九連勝之後的新高了!

"It's ups and downs in the NBA," forward Andrei Kirilenko said. "You remember
in preseason we won eight in row, then the beginning of the season we went
down, then the road trip we went up then, home games we've been sloppy. Now
we're up again. I hope we can stay up a little bit more."

AK"在NBA就是上上下下的(XD)
   你們記得我們在熱身賽八連勝  然後再開季的前七場比賽我們不太行...
   在客場的比賽我們表現得很好  在主場則是另外一回事
   現在  我們的狀況正好  我希望我們能夠在保持一下這好的狀況"

Utah's streak has come against opponents that are a combined 57-68, while the
Mavericks' victims are a combined five games above .500.

猶他在這波連勝的對手戰績加起來只有57-68
但小牛則是面對五隻5成勝率以上的隊伍!!!!

Dallas wasn't at its sharpest in win No. 7, but it didn't need to be. Shawn
Marion scored a team-high 16 as the Mavericks' bench provided 59 points in a
100-86 rout of Minnesota on Wednesday.

小牛在上一場比賽狀況並沒有很好，但還是夠他們贏的７連勝
香妹得到全隊最高的16分    小牛的板凳也提供了59分的火力支援

"It's progress," coach Rick Carlisle told the team's official website, "and
we've got to continue it. I like this group a lot. We've been very
business-like with our approach. Guys have taken nothing for granted."

卡帥"這就是我們的進步  而且我們會不斷的進步
     我超超超喜歡這個團隊  我們的表現井然有序
     而且沒有隊員將上場或是得分視為理所當然的事情"

Extending the streak to eight - which would be Dallas' longest since winning
13 in a row Feb. 17-March 10 - won't be easy in Utah, where Carlisle's team
has lost its five visits by an average of 12.8 points.

若能贏得八連勝  那將是小牛自從上一次13連勝後最長的一波連勝
但這在猶他並不容易
卡帥的教練團已經在這連輸了五場比賽而且平均輸了12.8分...

"Utah is always tough to play," Carlisle said. "We haven't won there since
I've been here, and I don't think we've been close. So, it's always a
difficult game. And again, the important thing is being really tied together
and rebounding the ball."

卡帥"猶他一直以來都是難以戰勝的球隊
     在我執教小牛後我們就沒在那贏過球了...
     而我也不認為我們是以些微的差距落敗的...  所以這是場艱難的比賽
     在比賽中我們必須咬緊分數還有保護好籃板!!!"

Rebounding is a major reason for the Mavericks' struggles in Salt Lake City.
The Jazz have pulled down 6.8 more boards per game during the five-game
streak, including a 31-rebound edge in Dallas' two most recent visits.

籃板是小牛在鹽湖城這麼慘的原因
在對爵士的五連敗中小牛平均少了爵士6.8的籃板
而在最近的兩次造訪小牛總共少抓了31個籃板...
(這邊有點怪的說5*6.8=34  可是最近兩次就占了31個~
 那應該只有最近這兩場問題比較大吧~)

Perhaps new addition Tyson Chandler can help the Mavericks change that.
Chandler has averaged 12.8 points and 13.8 boards in his last five games
while fueling his team's impressive defensive transformation.

也許增加拳王可以解決這個問題!
拳王這最近五場比賽平均12.8分13.8個籃板
他也刺激了球隊在防守上的質變

Dallas also needs to figure out how to contain Utah in the paint. The Jazz
have averaged 47.2 points in the lane during their home streak against the
Mavericks, many of which have come thanks to open looks provided by Deron
Williams. Utah's point guard has averaged 14.4 assists in the five wins.

小牛必須找出辦法限制猶他在禁區的得分
爵士在對小牛的五連勝中在禁區的平均得分是47.2分
很多都是小胖直接或間接製造出來的得分
在這五場比賽猶他的PG平均送出14.4次的助攻

Dallas is 3-0 in its last 10 trips to EnergySolutions Arena when Dirk
Nowitzki scores 29 points. The Mavericks are 0-7 in Utah when Nowitzki scores
fewer than 29.

在最近的十次造訪鹽湖城當DIRK得到29+時小牛是3-0
反之則是慘不忍睹的0-7...

看來是場硬戰!!!!
不過真沒想到對爵士戰績有糟成這樣...
