DALLAS – With his bald head and gray whiskers creeping into his beard, Vince
Carter gleefully looked across the American Airlines Center court during
pregame warmups.
在達拉斯小牛的美航中心球館裡，賽前暖身中的Vince Carter顯得很開心。
The 35-year-old Maverick counted not one, not two, not three but four New
York Knicks older than him.
這個35歲的小牛球員開心地數著：一個、二個、三個、四個！
對面尼克的球員有四個比他還老。
That, combined with the fact that his jumper felt as good as it had all
season, suddenly made Carter feel young again, never mind his sore right
hamstring.
然而，Carter的跳投感覺非常好，好到讓他不禁覺得自己又年輕起來了，
僅管他右後腿的肌肉仍然感到痠痛。
“My body didn’t feel good, but my shot felt good,” Carter said. “I was
like, ‘Well, I’m going with the shot feeling good and the body will catch
up.’”
「我的身體狀況不是頂好，但我投籃的感覺很棒」Carter說：
「怎麼說呢…呃…只要我的手感繼續保持下去，我想我的身體也會跟著改善的。」
The eight-time All-Star then turned in a turn-back-the-clock performance by
scoring 25 points in the Mavs’ win over the East-leading Knicks.
結果這位8次入選全明星賽的球員彷彿回春一般，全場拿下25分，
幫助小牛擊敗東區第一的尼克。
“In my eyes, he’s still Half Man, Half Amazing,” shooting guard O.J. Mayo
said after seeing Carter score 14 points in the fourth quarter alone. “He
still has some stuff left in the tank.”
在目睹Carter在第四節獨拿14分的精彩表現後，
Mayo說：「我認為他還是半人半神，實在是寶刀未老啊。」
Said Carter with a smile: “Whew, sometimes. As long as they make ice tubs, I
’m good.”
Carter則是笑著說：「偶爾我會爆發一下，特別是當他們的手感都冰冷的時候。」
A few more notes from the Mavs’ win:
以下是小牛贏球的賽後分析
1. Matrix makes a difference: Shawn Marion didn’t make the trip to Madison
Square Garden for the Mavs’ Nov. 9 loss due to his knee injury. He made his
presence felt in the rematch against the Knicks.
Matrix太重要了！Marion在11/9客場對尼克的比賽因膝傷未能上場，結果小牛輸了，
這次跟尼克再度對決，幸好有他在！
Marion made life difficult for MVP candidate Carmelo Anthony, who lit the
Mavs up for 31 points earlier this month. Anthony scored 23 on Wednesday
night, but he was 7-of-16 from the floor and had as many turnovers as field
goals.
Marion讓MVP呼聲極高的Melo打得綁手綁腳，在之前對小牛的比賽他狂拿31分，
而今晚，Melo投16中7只拿下23分，還發生7次失誤。
“I’m a competitor,” Marion said. “It’s exciting. I like challenges. That
’s what it’s about.”
「我想贏球，」Marion說：「我很興奮，我喜歡挑戰，這就是我。」
The game came down to a Melo vs. the Matrix possession.
比賽尾聲，Melo和Matrix正面對決。
With the Mavs up one with 24 seconds remaining, the Knicks ran a play anybody
in the building could have predicted: an iso for Anthony on the left wing.
Marion forced Anthony to take a tightly contested 15-foot pull-up that
bounced off the iron.
時間剩下24秒，尼克的戰術是「球給左翼的Melo單打」，
Marion則迫使Melo在他嚴防下做了一個15呎的跳投，結果球彈框而出。
“I always like Shawn’s odds in those situations where he can play a guy
one-on-one,” coach Rick Carlisle said. “He’s the best we’ve got.”
卡帥說：「我喜歡Marion的單防，他是我們隊裡單防最好的。」
2. Collison gets even: Darren Collison took this game personally, but that
had nothing to do with the future Hall of Famer he replaced returning to the
American Airlines Center.
Collison則討回了顏面：他相當重視這場比賽，
但這跟未來名人堂球員，也是前小牛球員--Kidd 造訪美航中心無關。
Collison wanted to make up for his previous performance against Jason Kidd’s
New York Knicks. He had four points and four turnovers while shooting 1-of-8
from the floor in the loss to the Knicks a couple of weeks ago.
在小牛和尼克的前次對決中他投8中1只拿下4分還發生4次失誤。
“I wasn’t the Darren that I’m capable of being,” Collison said. “I
really circled this game on my calendar. I really wanted to get after this
game. That’s how I took it personal.”
「我那時表現的不像我自己」Collison說：
「我在我的行事曆上把今晚這場比賽特別標注起來。」
「我想要從這場比賽中證明自己，這就是我這麼在乎這場比賽的原因。」
Collison, who has had his share of struggles since a spectacular start, came
up with his best performance since he helped spark the Mavs to a 4-1 start.
He scored a season-high 19 points and dished out seven assists.
Collison在開季的精彩表現後，陷入低潮，然而在這場比賽中，
他拿下本季新高的19分並且傳出7助攻。
3. Brand, Crowder come up big off bench: Veteran Elton Brand came off the
bench Wednesday for the first time with the Mavs. Rookie Jae Crowder rode the
bench Monday for an entire game for the first time in his life.
Brand和Crowder從板凳挺身而出：老將Brand本季首次從板凳出發，
而新秀Crowder則是在週一的比賽中坐滿整場的板凳，這是他生涯首次未能上場。
They both responded to situations they surely weren’t pleased with by
playing significant roles in the Mavs’ victory over the Knicks.
在小牛擊敗尼克的比賽中，他們不約而同的拿出驚人的表現證明自己。
Brand had eight rebounds, three assists and two steals, plus four points, in
20 minutes as a reserve center. Crowder matched his career high with 12
points – all in the second half – on 4-of-6 shooting in 21 minutes.
Brand擔任替補中鋒，在短短20分鐘拿下8籃板、3助攻、2抄截，外加4分。
Crowder拿下個人本季最高的12分，都在下半場拿下，21分鐘內投6中4。
On Brand, Carlisle said: “Elton gave us a huge lift off the bench. He was
the man out there.”
卡帥說：「Elton從板凳席上帶給我們很大的支援，這就是我要他所做的」
On Crowder, Carlisle said: “You’ve just got to be ready. He responded like
a pro tonight.”
卡帥表示：「做為一個職業球員，你必須隨時做好準備，就像Crowder今晚所做的。」
Brand, who recently expressed concern about his minutes in a diplomatic
fashion, had left the locker room by the time Carlisle’s press conference
ended.
Brand最近悄悄地用行動表示了他對上場時間的不滿：
在卡帥訪問結束後，他提前離開了更衣室。
Crowder, who never got an explanation from Carlisle for the DNP-CD, hopes he
proved something to his coach.
Crowder 則是不知道之前為什麼被冰，他希望這場比賽能向教練證明些什麼。
“It really showed that I’m a professional,” Crowder said. “I try to take
my craft really seriously. Hopefully I got my point across.”
Crowder說：「我想我證明了我有這個能力，我會繼續苦練應有的技巧，希望能讓教練肯
定」
