Cavaliers-Mavericks Preview


The Cleveland Cavaliers' historic losing streak has seemed like a nightmare
for players and fans, and the club could have a tough time ending the slide
in a road matchup with the hottest team in the NBA.

Having set a single-season league record with 24 consecutive losses,
Cleveland tries to avoid surpassing the franchise's own all-time league mark
Monday night against the Dallas Mavericks, winners of eight straight.

克里夫蘭騎士歷史性的連敗對球員與球迷來說真是個夢魘，但他們的苦日子
看似不太有機會在明天對上火燙的達拉斯小牛時終結。甫創下聯盟單季連敗
紀錄二十四連敗的騎士，要避免再度突破隊史也是聯盟的連敗紀錄，然而對
手是目前八連勝的小牛。


The Cavaliers (8-43) fell 111-105 to Portland on Saturday, giving them 34
defeats in 35 games. Cleveland hasn't won since Dec. 18.

The Cavs have lost 14 times by double digits during the slide, getting
outscored 108.7-94.4 in that stretch.

"It feels like a bad dream," guard Daniel Gibson said.

騎士昨天以105-111在家輸給拓荒者，這是他們近35場比賽的第34敗，騎士
自從去年12月18日之後就沒贏過球了。騎士在這波連敗中有14場輸超過10
分，平均得失分是94.4-108.7。後衛Daniel Gibson說："真是場惡夢。"


A 25th straight defeat would surpass the overall NBA record, set by the Cavs
from March 19-Nov. 5, 1982.

Antawn Jamison scored 17 points against the Trail Blazers and has been one of
the few bright spots for Cleveland, averaging 20.7 points during the woeful
streak.

明天要是吞下二十五連敗，騎士將超越自己於1982年3月19日到11月5日創下
的聯盟跨季連敗紀錄。Antawn Jamison對上拓荒者時拿到17分，是最近的比
賽中少數表現優異的騎士球員，他在這波連敗平均可以得到20.4分。


"I couldn't care less about the record," coach Byron Scott said. "I care
about our guys progressing and getting better. That's my biggest focus and
hopefully they feel the same way."

There has been almost no progress since Cleveland opened 7-9. Dallas defeated
the Cavs 104-95 on Jan. 2 despite playing without Dirk Nowitzki, overcoming
Jamison's 35 points and 10 rebounds and Ramon Sessions' 19 points, 12 assists
and seven boards.

教練Bryon Scott說："我一點也不在乎這個紀錄，我在乎的是球員們有沒有
成長進步，這是我最大的重點，我希望球員們也這樣想。"然而對於開季7勝
9敗的騎士來說卻完全沒有進步，小牛曾在1月2日時在缺少Dirk的情況下依舊
在客場以104-95取勝，克服了Jamison的35分10籃板以及Ramon Sessions的19
分12助攻7籃板所帶來的威脅。


With its star forward now recovered from the knee injury that kept him out,
Dallas (35-15) has regained its early season form, and it moved into second
place in the Western Conference with a 101-92 victory over Charlotte on
Saturday. Nowitzki had 25 points and has averaged 27.7 while shooting 59.2
percent over the last three victories.

However, Nowitzki is averaging 20.7 points against the Cavs, his
second-lowest mark against any team. He averages 20.6 versus Portland.

小牛的明星前鋒Dirk已經從膝傷走出，球隊也回到開季的水準，在昨天以
101-92擊敗山貓之後西區排名位居第二，Dirk昨天拿下25分。Dirk在最近
三場勝利平均可以攻下27.7分，命中率59.2%。然而Dirk生涯對上騎士平均
僅有20.7分，是他面對聯盟中其他球隊的次低，僅優於對上拓荒者的場均
20.6分。


Tyson Chandler grabbed 15 rebounds for the second straight game Saturday and
is averaging 16.1 points and 11.3 rebounds during the winning streak.

"He's been big. He's our emotional leader, our vocal leader," point guard
Jason Kidd said of Chandler. "He's a guy who can run the floor, finish above
the rim, block shots and rebound. He's been a big part of our success."

Tyson Chandler連續兩場比賽抓下15個籃板，在這波連勝中平均攻下16.1分
11.3籃板，後衛Jason Kidd也對拳王讚譽有加："他夠大隻而且會帶起大家
情緒，在場上是最會喊聲的球員，他也是個可以跑動、扣籃、巴火鍋和抓籃
板的傢伙，他絕對是我們連勝的重大關鍵。"


Shawn Marion led Dallas with 22 points Jan. 2 while DeShawn Stevenson added
21.

That victory was Dallas' second in a row in the series - both without
Nowitzki - after LeBron James helped Cleveland take the previous four. The
Mavericks have won eight of 10 matchups in Dallas.

Marion在上次對戰攻下全隊最高的22分，Stevenson攻下21分，小牛對上騎士
最近是二連勝，兩次都少了Dirk，再之前LeBron James所率領的騎士曾拿下
對戰的四連勝，小牛則是在最近10次主場對戰中贏了8場。


明天請穩穩打吧  論狀況論陣容實在沒有輸的理由  加油吧!!

Let's Go Mavs!!
